In My Sleep (feat. Tito Lopez & Chelsea Blare)

They give a real talk of the year award?
 Okay, so y'all wanna know what it's like for niggas rhyming?
 All they love is gone
 But they force you to find a silver lining
 And the playbook empty
 Done ran through every possible option
 So blue collar man, they think I'm crippin' Mississippi's Compton
 What the check ain't went through?
 How about the bread I lent you?
 Got a few views on Youtube
 Guess I ain't got to pay rent too, huh?
 Ever think you meant to do that one thing that you love to do?
 So you take a chance, take the stage and the ground move up under you
 And you drop
 And you keep falling, keep falling feel like it's never gonna stop
 And it's ironic
 Cause you in this bottomless pit 'til you get to the top
 And the cold sweats
 Waking up still in the projects, no progress
 This a dream or a nightmare?
 I don't know yet
 Then I get that call from my lil bro he tells me I'm his hero
 Just when I thought my life was screwed up like Texas no zero
 Got a second wind and picked up the pieces
 I'm a different species
 Me and Connor: death before dishonor
 Holla at me man
 I lock myself up in my room at night and pray to God
 They told me one day shit gonna change but I felt this way for so long
 I lock myself up in my room at night
 Hope He hear me crying in my room at night
 I lock myself up in my room at night and pray to God
 They told me one day shit gonna change but I felt this way for so long
 I lock myself up in my room at night
 Pray He hear me crying in my room at night
 Ain't nobody gonna give you props
 'til the world jump on your nuts
 It's just that simple
 By then you won't give a fuck
 All the nights you was by yourself
 Couldn't get nobody to pick up the phone
 All the days you wanted to reach out
 Ain't nobody have arms that long
 Had a dream I was back on the playground
 And I ain't have a care in the world
 Haters won't let me breathe
 Like it ain't enough air in the world
 All the nights I spent on this writing shit
 It ain't fair my girl
 She ain't wanna let go, but I had to let go
 If I couldn't be there for my girl
 I ain't never by myself
 Always get beside myself
 I really don't give a fuck
 But I guess I never really apply myself
 It's just easier that way
 Cause people come and people go
 Only thing constant is change
 Everything you see gonna go
 I don't want you to feel my pain
 Feeling yours is hard enough
 Find a reason to smile
 Yeah I know the shit hard as fuck
 Reminisce on the things you love
 Give thanks for the things you have
 Take a deep breath, look at where you at
 Follow my voice, let me bring you back
 Let me bring you back
 I lock myself up in my room at night and pray to God
 They told me one day shit gonna change but I felt this way for so long
 I lock myself up in my room at night
 Hope He hear me crying in my room at night
 I lock myself up in my room at night and pray to God
 They told me one day shit gonna change but I felt this way for so long
 I lock myself up in my room at night
 Pray He hear me crying in my room at night
 It goes down easy
 It goes down easy
 It goes down easy
 It goes down easy
 I'm running I'm running I've been gone too long
 I'm running I'm running I've been gone too long
 It goes down easy
 And you can hear me crying
 It was days I couldn't come outside
 All those nights when I was on my own
 Lord knows it ain't easy actually
 So I'm running
 I'm running
 I lock myself up in my room at night and pray to God
 They told me one day shit gonna change but I felt this way for so long
 I lock myself up in my room at night
 Hope He hear me crying in my room at night
 I lock myself up in my room at night and pray to God
 They told me one day shit gonna change but I felt this way for so long
 I lock myself up in my room at night
 Pray He hear me crying in my room at night
