Sleepless Lyrics by Liniyah

2018

[Verse: Teecy Da' Poet]
I had to elevate to get away from drama
Phasing through some phases where your homie wanna money launder
Where the broads are putting everything on offer for a profit
Where you're either dead or living in debt
And that passes on with every coffin
Talking like you topping but you bottom out
Too shallow for the life that you living so it's falling out
The tables and your pockets turn
Sold your soul for seconds in heaven but now you gone burn
Lesson learned
As a poet, know I'm coming from a humble beginning
So many losses turn to lessons, I'm uncomfortable winning
So many seconds are invested in the music you spinning
So many weeks of my scripting are in the music you skipping
I'm thinking how could you miss it. It's sitting right in your vision
You're spitting venom when talking hoping to ruin my day
I'm spitting love and the profit how I'm living okay? okay
Never get in my way
Writing lyrics in my phone. Leave the lyricist alone
Introverted by the forces telling us to get along
I don't like it, I don't like it, I won't lie a second more
Know I wanna see you win but wanna see you out my door
It's getting crowded in my space
Fill a page with all love and the hate
This duality has got me in a rage
I swear I'm happy but I'm never feeling safe
Cause you all up in my face
(An escape)
I just need
(An escape)
I can't breathe
(An escape)
Just leave me to be
Leave me in peace
I don't need no beef
I can't take no heat
It ain't easy to be free because accountability is now a constant
How you picking options
Showing if you top or at the bottom
So no sleep no problem
Black bagged eyes when I walk in

[Hook]
Lately been sleepless
I woke in a jail cell handcuffs chained to my hands
Lately been sleepless
Dreaming 'bout my death then waking to a brand new day
Lately been sleepless
I donno why I been stressed over people who pretend
I wanna lay off the net and just relax
Itching to get off my bed and just get rest
Lately been sleepless

[Verse: illi]
24 48 60 hrs ive been up
And i can't i can't sleep
And i can't think
My mind is bongled down
I need to clear to it up
I need to find whats up
It coulda been the drugs
It could been the suds
But i think its just this world
Cause it gots me down again
Its got me on the ground pinned
Bout to dig a hole dig a grave and get on in
Bury me alive i deserve it for my sins
Maybe i can sleep
Buried deep
As i weep
But they couldn't hear a peep
Except the devil down below
Trying to pull me down his hole
To the depth of the hells
Well i ain't going well
If you wanna bring me down the your gonna have to. Aim to kill
With every last breathe that i take
Imma keep intact imma keep on track with my faith
Imma bring it back to the days
Where i slept well
With no pill
Had a strong will
Gods will
I feels
To bring these other to the word
But i toss and twurl in my bed with no sleep
I think ive failed the mission given if i have then im sinning then i mise well submit to the world and i die in a fiery hell
But for now imma try to get some sleep and not think about my downfall
But pick myself up and work on my uprise

[Hook]
Lately been sleepless
I woke in a jail cell handcuffs chained to my hands
Lately been sleepless
Dreaming 'bout my death then waking to a brand new day
Lately been sleepless
I donno why I been stressed over people who pretend
I wanna lay off the net and just relax
Itching to get off my bed and just get rest
Lately been sleepless

[Verse: Liniyah]
I'm guessing it all started with the fame stuff
People claiming and I'm trying not to hear stuff
I don't remember if at all I climbed the ladder but I like the low-key underground coz there's less drama
Why you struggling to flee from that one ADDICTION
Yet you making a mockery of the crucifixion
Go ye and sin no more
You gotta make your spirit more dominant in these conditions
These conditions come with prices
Prices unpaid by our deeds but blood bought by Christ Jesus
If you choose not to believe then you're missing
Out on the rest we find when in His bossom
I'm sick and tired of this life
I'm feeling suicidal maybe I'll drop
People tryna bring me down but I don't go out without a fight
You talk about God doesn't listen but you do not speak to Him
Misunderstanding His logic passed human brains
Thinking it's magic and poor it disappears
Miracle chasing like demons for human flesh
Paying attention to those that don't give a damn
Flipping them switches to mad when they finna left
Think they'll be back even after they broke your heart
Guess you find peace leaving them unforgiven
Using a different lecture
Notice a rad censure
Scratching on the surface of glass
Building up sass
And every time they look at my craft
They judging me like
"YOU DIDN'T EVEN SLEEP FOR THAT"
Every minute mahn I'm working and I'm grinding
Aviationpapi got me following his standings
So it's that time in my life that I paint the picture
Be transformed as I wrestle up the journey

[Hook]
Lately been sleepless
I woke in a jail cell handcuffs chained to my hands
Lately been sleepless
Dreaming 'bout my death then waking to a brand new day
Lately been sleepless
I donno why I been stressed over people who pretend
I wanna lay off the net and just relax
Itching to get off my bed and just get rest
Lately been sleepless

[Outro]
Lately been sleepless
(Handcuffs chained to my hands
Lately been sleepless)
(Waking to a brand new day
Lately been sleepless)
(Stressed over people who pretend)
I wanna
(lay off the net and just relax)
Itching to
(get off my bed and just get rest)
Lately been sleepless
