Nightmare Sweats Lyrics by Navajo

Water From The Tap

2014

[Verse 1]
Yo, I'm from the city where the corners is froze
Niggas juxtapose with hoes and we scuffle with foes
Status determined by ya clothes and fresh kicks on ya toes
Niggas walking up the blocks fooling policed dog nose
Remember, times with dimes in my pocket, the train I'd hop it
To double my profits, a coupe details, worth mentioned
Inches from canines with keen senses
A teen, but the weight I was moving would've earned an adult sentence
A couple times with the jakes on my ass
I was mad, hopped a fence and i ripped my fucking pants, but yo
East Ferry street, niggas greeted with heat
Just last week a nigga got his shit rocked to sleep
Out of towners who come, and see the falls
Sometimes experience crime for the first time or caught in a brawl
Hookers coming off the crawl, drunk can't stand, they walk using walls
Ayo the crime rate climbs, I used to move weight, now I'm focused only on rhymes
It's my only escape...so it only makes sense
When I commence to dispense real shit that's intense
My intent is to spark ill like aids patients with flints
War vets is bent, they walking the chip strip, tryna get they dicks licked, it makes no sense
If you want whore then you head towards Kenmore
But be easy black the beast got degrees in excessive force
[Hook]
As cold as my nightmare sweats
I never sleep, cause sleep brings me visions of death
The city's cold, as cold as my nightmare sweats
I never sleep, cause sleep brings me visions of death
The city's cold, as cold as my nightmare sweats
I never sleep, cause sleep brings me visions of death
The city's cold, as cold as my nightmare sweats
I never sleep, cause sleep brings me visions of death
[Verse 2]
Ayo, niggas love the summer cause it means more bitches
But it brings more murders, and hospital visits
Homicides rise when Ra resides in the sky
Someone tell Rakim, to stop getting high
Fiends who, blatantly basing, they hard to be facing
They faces is, fucked up beyond species relation
Niggas is squeezing, letting off heat, police retreating
I listen, cause these streets, when we feasting they speaking
We only hold revolvers so we harder to be tracing
Young girls in tight jeans is missing menstruation
Litigation by my politicians, I'm in opposition
Fuck my state senators, lately what they done for us?
Niggas bust, they make it hard for me to get a semi
In god we trust? Leave that shit for my nigga Benny
Cause god is absent, so many niggas passing, from trigger action
Leave weak niggas gasping, four fifths is blasting
We packing Mac knowledge knowledge
Hood scholars, let semis holler, instead of attending college
Priest are liars, fuck the gospel
I'm living hostile opposed, I trust a fo'fo' to smite my foes
[Outro]
I never sleep, cause sleep brings me visions of death...
I never sleep, cause sleep brings me visions of death..
