Nightmare Sweats

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Yo, I'm from the city where the corners is froze Niggas juxtapose with hoes and we scuffle with foes Status determined by ya clothes and fresh kicks on ya toes Niggas walking up the blocks fooling policed dog nose Remember, times with dimes in my pocket, the train I'd hop it To double my profits, a coupe details, worth mentioned Inches from canines with keen senses A teen, but the weight I was moving would've earned an adult sentence A couple times with the jakes on my ass I was mad, hopped a fence and i ripped my fucking pants, but yo East Ferry street, niggas greeted with heat Just last week a nigga got his shit rocked to sleep Out of towners who come, and see the falls Sometimes experience crime for the first time or caught in a brawl Hookers coming off the crawl, drunk can't stand, they walk using walls Ayo the crime rate climbs, I used to move weight, now I'm focused only on rhymes It's my only escape...so it only makes sense When I commence to dispense real shit that's intense My intent is to spark ill like aids patients with flints War vets is bent, they walking the chip strip, tryna get they dicks licked, it makes no sense If you want whore then you head towards Kenmore But be easy black the beast got degrees in excessive force [Hook] As cold as my nightmare sweats I never sleep, cause sleep brings me visions of death The city's cold, as cold as my nightmare sweats I never sleep, cause sleep brings me visions of death The city's cold, as cold as my nightmare sweats I never sleep, cause sleep brings me visions of death The city's cold, as cold as my nightmare sweats I never sleep, cause sleep brings me visions of death [Verse 2] Ayo, niggas love the summer cause it means more bitches But it brings more murders, and hospital visits Homicides rise when Ra resides in the sky Someone tell Rakim, to stop getting high Fiends who, blatantly basing, they hard to be facing They faces is, fucked up beyond species relation Niggas is squeezing, letting off heat, police retreating I listen, cause these streets, when we feasting they speaking We only hold revolvers so we harder to be tracing Young girls in tight jeans is missing menstruation Litigation by my politicians, I'm in opposition Fuck my state senators, lately what they done for us? Niggas bust, they make it hard for me to get a semi In god we trust? Leave that shit for my nigga Benny Cause god is absent, so many niggas passing, from trigger action Leave weak niggas gasping, four fifths is blasting We packing Mac knowledge knowledge Hood scholars, let semis holler, instead of attending college Priest are liars, fuck the gospel I'm living hostile opposed, I trust a fo'fo' to smite my foes [Outro] I never sleep, cause sleep brings me visions of death... I never sleep, cause sleep brings me visions of death..
