Rise - Sleep lyrics

{Alarm going on} [Intro] [Rise talking] Oh sh**, what? Yeah, nah-no, yeah Four, five, nah, I'm up. I'm up. What's up? Nah, we can do it. That's it. Rise This n***a fell asleep [Verse One] They say, "Sleeps the cousin of d**h" Life's his pops Sleep's the black sheep, sleazy s**'s the aunt I don't need sleep, I robot Overwrite the three laws The mic great lightweights, can't move me on this seesaw Caffeine and No-Doz, I'm wired to that in-box This last nerve I hope holds to benefit this hip hop Murder the scene and get-a-way clean And had you Worship my team, sayin' word to my genes You've heard of esteem I bring it to a whole 'nother scale Minds in prison and I help him dig a hole out the cell I bring champagne for real friends Real pain for sham friends Until this cosmic experiment, the plan ends Watch dude's schemin' and you didn't know they fake Be up while they operatin' like the movie Awake Sleep One eye open, the other mid squint Two eyes in the back to see you rappers a wink C'mon [Hook] [x4] "I never sleep cause sleep is the cousin of d**h" - Nas 'New York State Of Mind' Never catch me sleepin' [Verse Two] Yo, there lies my cocoon, you're hearin' a bu*terfly There is no grave/tomb earned, spell a lullaby I never sleep Except after work And tequila knocks me out like the Catholic church And after I squirt And after I eat And after you speak, you rappers that's reap But otherwise, I don't sleep So how I still dream? Rapid eye movement, testin', strap me to machines Am I conscious or up on the best of y'all lies You'll die checkin' {BOOM!} I was just restin' my eyes I'm not sleepin' You are And dreamin' of me Makin' a song with Avid where I'm talkin' 'bout sleep Where the metaphors? Fill it with the faith of a mustard seed Jumped out of the frying pan and into the busted leaf I'm John Connor, the future of rappin' Anyone who tries to stop it will cause it to happen [Hook] [x4] "I never sleep cause sleep is the cousin of d**h" - Nas 'New York State Of Mind' Never catch me sleepin'
