Insomnia Lyrics by Melvin Burch

Soulipsism

2013

[Someone... come and lift me out of here...
I just wanna go to sleep...
There's a whisper in my ear...]

[Verse 1]
Back in this mug like your favorite coffee
I'm too hype; But to-night?
[I just wanna go to sleep]
Can't though; head hoppin'; Kangol
[There's a whisper in my ear]
My dreams have a lot to say, a lot they want to see, a lot they want to be
Mainly reality, and I say "Why not?"
Excuse my future french; Frylock
But Glob dang it, I say it's time for adventure
Y'all chatter like teeth in the winter
Dentures, to be exact; you're never speaking fact
It's all false, so as soon as you fall off, make room for "Mr. Mistake"; "Sir Take Two"
The late bloomer, yet with music, I make due
More than do; I'ma reign
Full on storm, the wallflower's in the game

[Hook]
Bang, bang; thoughts shootin' though my brain
Bang... bang... and-
[I just wanna go to sleep]
But when I sleep, you sleep on me
I hear the warning
[There's a whisper in my ear]
So I'm up, runnin' for my fantasy
I'm comin' for my fantasy, I'm gunnin' for my fantasy...

I'm gunnin' for my fantasy...
Bang, bang, bang... bang...

[Verse 2]
Still in my room, I'm feeling the mood, it's like a-
Prison in here; a prism, but hues come out when-
My light bulb gets white hot; a bright idea that I jot, that opens up a view into many moods
Many moons ago, there was only a dark side, now I choose to go wherever, whenever, and do whatever
A mood ring gets severed at the touch of my skin, it's beautiful
I feel it all... at the same darn time
I can clean up the quote because the future is mine
Super divine, super fly
I'm an angel on Red Bull, my halo's shine'll leave you blind
Maybe triple fly cause I'm zippin' through the sky
At the same time that I'm zippin' through my mind
Can't put a stopper on the flow
Bathing in my waves, won't drop, I gotta float, cause

[Hook]

[Verse 3]
Eyelids heavy; covers are comfortable
Sheets so snug; it's all wonderful
Now if only my head would settle down
Mind racing, you'd think I'd have the gold medal now
But it's cool; I listen to the whispers
Some nights, they really get loud
But if they try to step out of bounds
I'ma drown 'em all out with the cheers from the crowd
Like, please, I'm a champion; quiet with all the nonsense
I drop music harder than Ron Swanson
Treat me like a walk in the park, you get wrecked
I'm a basket case; an Easter gift set
Going crazy on a beat; a cops who's shift stretched past 24 hours cause I didn't get rest
Cause I'm up, tryina' catch an insomniac; guess who?
I'm my only competition; 'night, rest of you
