Don't Sleep
I been down but I'm back in the game now
Switch my style so they got nothing to say now
Don't sleep, don't sleep, don't sleep on me now
All the money and the fame won't show now
Just remember my name before I go down
Don't sleep, don't sleep, don't sleep on me
Don't sleep on me 'til I'm gone
Resting in peace and time to move on
Don't wait 'til it's too late
To say I was one of the greats
All I want is for them to know who I am before I get to heaven
These other artists claiming they real but they just pretending
Gotta speak how I feel in every sentence
Pay close attention to avoid these dead ends
So every session is a blessing
When I think it's dead, I resurrect it
But they got me misunderstood
They think I'm tryna be famous
Think I gotta big head, I just have a picture
I want you to be the one to paint it
My name, I want you to claim it
Be proud to know me as a person
I don't wanna blow up, I don't the fame
And fortune that comes with curses
I wanna spit these verses, amaze you with the talent I was handed
And when you play this song
Play it again and again 'til you can understand it
When you close your eyes, when you close your eyes
For the last time, don't be afraid of what you'll find
I been down but I'm back in the game now
Switch my style so they got nothing to say now
Don't sleep, don't sleep, don't sleep on me now
All the money and the fame won't show now
Just remember my name before I go down
Don't sleep, don't sleep, don't sleep on me
All these years living a fast life, time to slow it down
All I want is to be remembered before I go down
I changed my whole perspective on life
So I won't regret not living it right
And I won't forget what I left behind
But I will continue to strive and design
They think my life is so fun and exciting
Because I don't look like a bum when I perform I'm so icy
But I rock Nikes nothing too pricey
In this type of life that I see
If you walked in my shoes and saw my view
Then I think way more would like me
I'm not filthy rich, and they treat me like a celebrity
When I'm in another state, but wait
They don't know the real me
And I exaggerate sometimes when I rhyme because they feel me
But deep down inside I have true stories scripted within me
When you close your eyes, when you close your eyes
For the last time, don't be afraid of what you'll find
I been down but I'm back in the game now
Switch my style so they got nothing to say now
Don't sleep, don't sleep, don't sleep on me now
All the money and the fame won't show now
Just remember my name before I go down
Don't sleep, don't sleep, don't sleep on me
Switch my style so they got nothing to say now
Don't sleep, don't sleep, don't sleep on me now
All the money and the fame won't show now
Just remember my name before I go down
Don't sleep, don't sleep, don't sleep on me
Don't sleep on me 'til I'm gone
Resting in peace and time to move on
Don't wait 'til it's too late
To say I was one of the greats
All I want is for them to know who I am before I get to heaven

Don't sleep, don't sleep, don't sleep on me
