In My Sleep

Lyrics

[Intro: Feist] Easy It go down easy It goes down easy It goes down easy It goes down easy It go down easy It goes down easy It goes down [Verse 1: Tito Lopez] They give a 'Real Talk of the Year' award? Okay, so y'all wanna know what it's like for niggas rhymin'? ([?]) All they love is gold, but they force you to find the silver lining And the playbook empty, done ran through every possible option So blue-collar, man, they think I'm crippin' [?] Compton [?] the check ain't went through ([?],) how 'bout the bread I lent you? ([?]) Got a few views on YouTube, guess I ain't got to pay rent too, huh? Ever think you meant to do that one thing that you love to do? So you take a chance, take the stage and the ground move up under you and you drop And you keep fallin', keep fallin', feel like it's never gon' stop And it's ironic, 'cause you're in this bottomless pit 'fore you get to the top And the cold sweats, wakin' up still in the projects No progress, this a dream or a nightmare? I don't know yet, uh Then I get that call from my lil bro, he tell me I'm his hero Just when I thought my life was screwed up like Texas, no, Z-Ro Got a second wind and picked up the pieces, I'm a different species Me and Connor: death before dishonor, holler at 'em, man [Chorus 1: Jon Connor] Here we go, yeah I lock myself up in my room at night and pray to God They told me, one day shit gon' change, but I felt this way for so long I lock myself up in my room at night (Room at night) Hope He hear me cryin' in my room at night (One more time, yeah) I lock myself up in my room at night and pray to God They told me, one day shit gon' change, but I felt this way for so long I lock myself up in my room at night (Room at night) Pray He hear me cryin' in my room at night (Here we go, yeah) [Verse 2: Jon Connor] Look Ain't nobody gon' give you props 'til the world jump on your nuts It's just that simple, by then you won't give a fuck All the nights you was by yourself, couldn't get nobody to pick up the phone All the days you wanted to reach out, ain't nobody have arms that long Had a dream I was back on the playground and I ain't have a care in the world Haters won't let me breathe, like there ain't enough air in the world All the nights I spent on this writing shit, it ain't fair to my girl She ain't wanna let go, but I had to let go if I couldn't be there for my girl I ain't ever by myself, always get beside myself I really don't give a fuck, but I guess I never really apply myself It's just easier that way, 'cause people come and people go Only thing constant is change, everything you see gon' go I don't want you to feel my pain, feeling yours is hard enough Find a reason to smile, yeah, I know that shit hard as fuck Reminisce on the things you love, give thanks for the things you have Take a deep breath, look at where you at, follow my voice, let me bring you back, let me bring you back [Chorus 2: Jon Connor] Yeah, yeah, yeah I lock myself up in my room at night and pray to God They told me, one day shit gon' change, but I felt this way for so long I lock myself up in my room at night (Room at night) Hope He hear me cryin' in my room at night (One more time, yeah) I lock myself up in my room at night and pray to God They told me, one day shit gon' change, but I felt this way for so long I lock myself up in my room at night (Room at night) Pray He hear me cryin' in my room at night (Yeah, yeah, yeah) [Bridge: Chelsea Blair] It goes down easy It goes down easy It goes down easy It goes down easy (It goes down easy) I'm running, I'm running, I been gone too long I'm running, I'm running, I been gone too long It goes down easy And you can hear me crying [?] All those nights when I was on my own (What about me?) Lord knows it ain't easy [?] So I'm running, I'm running [Chorus 3: Jon Connor] Here we go, yeah I lock myself up in my room at night and pray to God They told me, one day shit gon' change, but I felt this way for so long I lock myself up in my room at night (Room at night) Hope He hear me cryin' in my room at night (One more time, yeah) I lock myself up in my room at night and pray to God They told me, one day shit gon' change, but I felt this way for so long I lock myself up in my room at night (Room at night) Pray He hear me cryin' in my room at night (Yeah, yeah, yeah) [Outro: Feist] It go down easy It go down easy It goes down easy It goes down easy It goes down
