VERSE 1
I don’t count no sheep when I go to sleep.
I think about life, think about the strife,
How I been struggling now for so many years,
I’ve cried so many tears, climbing those stairs.
Yet nobody care, everyone for their own,
Your my brother one minute & the next you gone.
Disappear into the air like you doing magic tricks,
I’ve been losing my people since about the age of six.
For this state of emptiness there is no remedy,
I’m sick of this thing that we call memory,
What’s the meaning of it all? Why we gotta fall
When we got 2 legs & 2 feet to help us stand tall.
Sitting undeservedly at the top of the food chain,
Deceiving each other, & causing mad pain,
Only creature with a technical feature in its head,
Letting us construct, but we destruct till we all dead.

VERSE 2
I wanna see the days when its all good in the hood,
I wanna be cruising in a phat car with the Mud.
I can see it now, how we got the top down,
As we’re driving round town, cause you know its hot now.
I’m pressing on the pedals with my brand new Fila,
I’m shifting the gear like I was a drug dealer,
Making more money than you could ever think,
Sit back and watch all my enemies sink.
I wanna take trips to the US,
And go MC with the best on the East and the West.
I play my cards right like Bruce Forsyth,
I hope that I get the most devoted wife,
Cause I’m sick of the strife, I want security,
And a phat wallet before I reach maturity,
Without having to fall, stand tall,
I want it all, every single thing in the mall.
I don’t count no sheep when I go to sleep.
I think about life, think about the strife,
