No Sleep

Lyrics

[Verse 1: Grieves] Yo, now I was standin' in the middle of it all Tryin' to face it Everythin' around me has been a break in the chain that I placed faith and it figures 'Cause ever since a youngin' I was runnin' with the devil In a race to the bottom of my patience, scattered Tryin' to pick the pieces off the ground Love is nothin' but a memory I fight to keep around now The beats on, but I'm laggin' Never catchin' it The never-ending circle A definition of irrelevant, a man With nothin' but a pencil in his hand Tryin' to scribble down it permanent So he can feed his fam But you take it all for granted You walk into my temple open-handed But you don't see the terrifyin' things that I've been keepin' Underneath these bloody bandages You see the world's much realer on this side of the camera lens You see depth, but only get six feet I cheat death and never get no sleep [Chorus: Paris Alexa] It doesn't matter who you are The sun is gonna set behind you (behind you, behind you) All alone in these streets It doesn't matter where you go The night is always owed a little bit of blood that flows inside you (inside you, inside you) I close my eyes but never gettin' no sleep [Post-Chorus] And never gettin' no (never gettin' no) And never never gettin' no sleep (no sleep) And never gettin' no [Verse 2] Yo, now Chords told me I should rap for a bit Fuck a typical design I was floatin' in the ether Trying to ease a worried mind, feelin' Drunk, weavin', tryin' to leave it all behind Life's mystery is leavin' and chasin' it through the vines But I'm fine with it I never need the definition I'm gettin' used to them spellin' me with a letter missin' Another pistol in my hand Drawin' pictures in the sand When I'm slowly becomin' one of my premonitions, heavy They call me heavy I was followin' the light that was shinin' And signifyin' the ending of it The flies gather in a bottle even if it's empty It's temptin' To know that even just a simple little thought of it can leave them tremblin' on the floor You looking at me like I haven't been around it before, man You want the recipe for just one piece I cheat death and never get no sleep [Chorus: Paris Alexa] It doesn't matter who you are The sun is gonna set behind you (behind you, behind you) All alone in these streets It doesn't matter where you go The night is always owed a little bit of blood that flows inside you (inside you, inside you) I close my eyes but never gettin' no sleep It doesn't matter who you are The sun is gonna set behind you (behind you, behind you) All alone in these streets It doesn't matter where you go The night is always owed a little bit of blood that flows inside you (inside you, inside you) I close my eyes but never gettin' no sleep [Post-Chorus] I never gettin' no (never gettin' no) I never never gettin' no sleep I never gettin' no I never never gettin' no sleep I never gettin' no (and never gettin' no) I never never gettin' no sleep I never gettin' no
