I'm Not Sleeping

Fuck it

Mmkay
None of my guardians went to law school
About 60 percent of me was raised by a cartoon
Long live the dead is my arsenal
This Mbox is my art tool, so let's pretend we are cool
Mmkay?, let's pretend we all rule
Let's pretend we have people to talk to
Who guides us through this walkthrough
Mmkay? Not enough homies in my carpool
The comic relief's dark mood, trippin' on these marbles

Suddenly I know I'm not sleeping
Hello I'm still here
All that's left of yesterday

Mmkay
None of my teachers went to Yale
None of my friends are as rich as Oprah
None of my homegirls act like Gayle
Nobody's Kenan and Kel, nobody's happy as hell
Confused by victory, because there's not enough misery
We more likely fail
Mmkay, the dad's at 28 percent
Mmkay, that badge at 88 percent
We just make a cent off scrubbing plates and vents
Just to pay the rent but that shit won't make a dent

Suddenly I know I'm not sleeping
Hello I'm still here
All that's left of yesterday

Mmkay
None of my past crushes were celibate
Mmkay, none of my idols are irrelevant
None of my idols are case workers or firemen
Mmkay, this whole facade I am dying in
Sometimes I look in the mirror and feel like IronMan
Sometimes I look at a rope and feel like tying it
Sometimes I look at a hole and feel like diving in
No drugs my nature high is sin

Suddenly I know I'm not sleeping
Hello I'm still here
All that's left of yesterday

Sometimes I hear some voices crying in my fuckin' head
Sometimes I lie in bed wondering why I am dead
Some are suicidal but I'm too shy to fly this ledge
I know a world that cuts themselves while playing Simon says
I know they eager for escape but they hide instead
I know they feeling so low they getting high instead
I swear this writing keeps my mind in edge
Diving in some-

The fuck?
Yo' it's like late as shit
I need to take my ass to sleep man
