Insomnia Lyrics by Daveed Lucid

The Vision

2016

[Chorus: Daveed]

I can't sleep from the insomnia nah
Insomnia, Insomnia
My eyes are red I can't sleep
From the Insomnia, From the Insomnia

[Verse 1: Daveed]

How can they expect me to dream, I got so much life on my plate
So much stress on my brain, How can I rest I'm still paving my lane
Call up Pluto 'fore I pick up the lean, Pouring up for like 20 hours straight
Look in the mirror can't recognize my face, dropped a couple tabs on top of that at my place

Ears they be ringing while my facial swimming, pupils dilated codeine in my system
[?] we don't need the specifics
Just know that I did it, built up a team dedicated committed
Your god as my witness, we will not stop until sleep is permitted

We party get lit but stay driven as shit, Made a promise to me, been set ever since
My plan to succeed, is more than be rich, But fuck it the money will help me exist
Fuck is legit when sell outs making hits, Call it the devil or call it my wits
Killing my passion or saving it's skin, fuck it let's do it it's this or it's slit

Thoughts are becoming louder than life, possessed when I'm on the mic
Rhythm plaguing every step that I take in life, oh that's right
This shit won't suffice, will not be happy til I quit this 9 to 5
So I'm breaking every bone, sweating blood, 'til I see light through the other side


[Chorus: Daveed]

I can't sleep from the insomnia nah
Insomnia, Insomnia
My eyes are red I can't sleep
From the Insomnia, From the Insomnia


[Verse 2: Daveed]

How can they expect me to sleep, what the fuck you expect
When I can't even breathe, when I can't even breathe
How could I close my eyes, how can I close my eyes
When I have yet to fulfill all of my fucking dreams, all my fucking dreams

I'm not trying to live this life on repeat yo this life on repeat
Ascension the key so I strive to succeed
Eyes blood shot red from the nights that I scheme
Plot my takeover yo fuck the regime

They cannot see all the visions I see all the visions I see
They cannot witness my life in 3D my life in 3D
They do not have the mind state of Daveed mind state of Daveed
They do not know what I'll do to be free what I'll do to be free

What is the light when the light is self made
What to you strive for with nothing to gain
How do you cover when caught in the rain
You don't even try just absorb and find shade


[Chorus: Daveed]

I can't sleep from the insomnia nah
Insomnia, Insomnia
My eyes are red I can't sleep
From the Insomnia, From the Insomnia
