Voices

Voices in my head they couldn’t let me sleep
In the midst of my sorrows I started counting sheep
My ancestors in bonfires they summon me
Can’t Be Alive sleeping hence the dead they rest in peace
What you know about the poor and the silver spoon
Abandoned the Castle, his mission was to save the Hood
In Africa the firstborn he the backbone
And they be hanging on to me on every damn song
Even Okonkwo’s Legacy had to be a parade
And do you blame a man for making it without an aid
Like 17 and underground he looking for bread
Like Robbing cops, insanity was a normal day
Said I will never give up till my soul is done decaying
We’ve been fugitives since the sin and cursing of Cain
Yea I blow my Hay through an apple pipe
And then I proceed to eat it after, munchies to my pipes
I hear the voices up in every corner
When I’m asleep, they telling me to wake up
I can’t sleep/rest, that’s why I’m working harder
They be talking to me, they be talking to me
We all grinding but I’m striving to get the cake and
Cut it in equal shares, a lesson niggas missed in day care
They be acting like all I do is try to impress them
But I gat voices in my head and its harder to talk back
All I know is that, I gatta feed a family
I gat a daughter that calls me daddy every single morning
Like, ‘Daddy, could you, put us in a fuqen mansion'
Imaginations, colonizing my inner phantoms
Where was Adam when Eve was being tempted by the serpent?
Maybe Rollin up some weed, getting high in the mountains
Yea, and then he buried it in secret
He didn’t need convincing, all he really needed was munchies
He took the bite of deceptions and now, we outchea
The voices in my head, they telling me to turn left
So, I, turn left at the right time
That’s why we don’t sleep, we created this Night Grind
I hear the voices up in every corner
When I’m asleep, they telling me to wake up
I can’t sleep/rest, that’s why I’m working harder
They be talking to me, they be talking to me
