Sleep Forever Lyrics by G-Scott

1983

0

Summers over summer over the kids are heading to class
While im sitting on this couch just watching the time pass
9 to 5 just wasn't for me
That school work I done did it
On the outside looking in seems nowheres where im headed
I remember every summer buddy walk up the block
Dribbling basketballs pivot pantomiming the rock
Some niggas use to laugh at him praying that he would flop
Cause they could never touch the sky too many rocks in they socks
They told him to stop (did he?)
Hm probably not he coulda been a bad boy but opportunity knocked
Opened the door on the floor now is where you can watch
Its either whip or your drive I'm trying to get off the lot
You ask him what drive worth he prolly tell you alot
When he finally left from college got called to the draft stage
Held his jersey to crowd I wonder what he'd say every night for he slept he told me that he prayed
(Chourus Portugal. The Man)
I just wanna sleep forever (Sleep Forever)
Never see tomorrow (see tomorrow)
Or lead or follow (need or borrow)
Its Lower cases with capital behind bars like animals
Stick you up for that green thats cactus they'll split ya cantalope
Greed became a sickness but more moneys the antidote
Lion about dollars will leave you losing thats antelopes
Its a jungle a junkie a pastor preaching bout funding is equally and amazingly condescendingly cunning
So to the alter were running instead of learning were hunting instead of saving a soul hes more so focused on stunting
I remember convos with my parents bout buying jays
Getting jumped for the jumpman I jump back to them days
Where they wouldn't let me cop em that very reason afraid
Mighty funny I got older copped em when I got paid
Not a slave to that thinking atleast thats what I would say
Though ironic when I got it it all got taken away
Fore I lay my head to sleep and kneel on the floor to pray
I just look up toward the ceiling and this is what I say
(Chorus)
