(Ozzy Osbourne)
Close your eyes
Close your eyes
You gotta close your eyes for me
(Freddie Gibbs)
Yeah
Keep 'em closed
Haha, yeah
(Verse 1)
Imagine this, livin' in a spot without a pot piss
Or no windows to open up so you can pour out the sh**
Livin' dead cause you ain't really livin' without a grip
Hella sh** to pay, baby on the way ain't that bout a b**h
It's 1982, she gave birth to you and dropped outta college
Raised you in the Atlas but full of addicts and alcoholics
No place to live, yo mumma and her mumma crib
No paper for labour, her pockets broke before her water did
Not just a ghetto kid, she was a survivor
Mum a hard working women but daddy's a womaniser
Saw him cheat her and beat her then leave her like he despised her
So when you grew up to be that way it didn't suprise her
The thug in your blood, she love you but can't control you
Conditions that you livin' are starting to shape and mould you
She say the devil in your head
He introduce you to the streets, yo my name is Fred
I'm in it til my coffin close
(Hook)
(Close your eyes)
Can you imagine that?
(Close your eyes)
Sit back and blaze a sack
(You gotta close your eyes for me)
Now I lay me down to sleep
Always lay down with my heat
Gotta jump back on my feet
I'm in the street, until my coffin close
(Close your eyes)
Can you imagine that?
(Close your eyes)
n***a, sit back and blaze a sack
(You gotta close your eyes for me)
Now I lay me down to sleep
Always lay down with my heat
Gotta jump back on my feet
I'm in the street, until my coffin close
(Verse 2)
Yeah
Streets cold, these youngin' n***as is gettin' bold
Murder on the daily this funeral sh** is gettin' old
Ya soul searchin' for another way to make it through
College, military, that 9 to 5 sh** don't work for you
So what you do? Load another clip, we plot another lick
You gotta thing for music and your homies like the way you spit
The lords showin' you a sign you can't ignore the sh**
Put your pain on paper, hit the lab and go record the sh**
Your fan base is gettin' big
This Jewish kid from California working your label now you got this cracker on your dick
Told his boss the Judas sh** and everybody feelin' him
He took advantage of your thirst and signed you for the minimum
The rap stopped sellin' and he started acting funny
Your manager just managed a way to jerk you for your money
But them crackers said they had your back
You got a record deal so why you back to sellin' crack?
They wanna see your coffin close
(Hook)
(Close your eyes)
Can you imagine that?
(Close your eyes)
Sit back and blaze a sack
(You gotta close your eyes for me)
Now I lay me down to sleep
Always lay down with my heat
Gotta jump back on my feet
I'm in the street, until my coffin close
(Close your eyes)
Can you imagine that?
(Close your eyes)
n***a, sit back and blaze a sack
(You gotta close your eyes for me)
Now I lay me down to sleep
Always lay down with my heat
Gotta jump back on my feet
I'm in the street, until my coffin close
(Verse 3)
Yeah
You right back where you started, careless and broken hearted
One shot away from being part of the dearly departed
These haters bustin' choppers at you so you bustin' back
That rapping dream you had that's out the window, you like f** that
Your girl says she pregnant
Your grandma just pa**ed away
Your homie took one in the head
Your cousin just got murked today
Psychologically this sh** done sent you on a rampage
n***as look at you wrong and you bustin' off that 12 gauge
All you do is hell raise
Let that bottle solve your problems
Liqour with the pills, codeines, and X and oxycodone
Drug habit off the hook
Step away from snorting powder
Paranoid they waking you up out your sleep like every hour
This is not a movie cause every day n***as get devoured
By the street, losing they life, they enticed by money and power
Until the game bring a n***a to the end
I just pray the lord forgive me for my sins
(Hook)
(Close your eyes)
Can you imagine that?
(Close your eyes)
Sit back and blaze a sack
(You gotta close your eyes for me)
Now I lay me down to sleep
Always lay down with my heat
Gotta jump back on my feet
I'm in the street, until my coffin close
(Close your eyes)
Can you imagine that?
(Close your eyes)
n***a, sit back and blaze a sack
(You gotta close your eyes for me)
Now I lay me down to sleep
Always lay down with my heat
Gotta jump back on my feet
I'm in the street, until my coffin close
