Can't Sleep
It's been a long day since I've closed my eyes
two packs down and I'm terrorized,
don't know who to turn to too many lies
I just want to be alone cause there's no one
to sympathize with. They say they understand
my pain but they haven't cried their souls out
and I just want to know if I can live without -
her. 3 A.M. smoking cigarettes I'm in a
pure drought, when I'm happy that tends
to be a doubt contemplating what I did
wrong, I can't sleep. I can't sleep
Cigarettes, weed arguments with fam
I don't know what happen I don't know
who I've become, late night walks I
just want to block out everyone and
put my dirge on. My mom calls me,
and she calls me begging me to tell
her where I'm at and I ignore her
cause she's my mom and I yell
at her cause I try to be a man
and not a damn thing happens
cause I've outdone my flaws
and it gets me thinking at night
and I can't sleep. I can't sleep.
