Lyrics Sleep - Joey Cool

Sleep

Need some sleep, I can’t go on like this
Tried counting sheep, but there’s always one I miss
Everyone says, I’m getting down to long
Everyone says, you just gotta let it go
You just gotta let it go
You just gotta let it go
I gotta get it off my chest
Why wouldn’t I set out to be the best
A hundred miles an hour I know I could use the the rest
But I feel like I’m running outta time getting older
And this shit really fucking with my mind
Everyday I’m dwelling on some stupid shit that’s in the past
Should be focused on the present then the future but I crashed
Ask why
Would’ve prolly had to do it
All the shit that I was doing
The decisions I was making
Wasn’t thinking I was stupid
But I was young and I was dumb and doing wrong was so amusing
Till I had a change of heart, now the shit is just confusing
I don’t know why I felt I had to do it
But now that I’ve been broken, I would never put you through it
And I’ve come to the conclusion
My deprivation derives, from a much different place
At a much darker time
Uh, just had to get it off my chest
A hundred miles an hour I know I could use the rest
But I’m stressed
Need some sleep, I can’t go on like this
Tried counting sheep, but there’s always one I miss
Everyone says, I’m getting down to long
Everyone says, you just gotta let it go
You just gotta let it go
You just gotta let it go
I gotta get it off my chest
Why wouldn’t I set out to be the best
A hundred miles an hour I know I could use the the rest
But how I’m gon' sleep when these niggas in the streets
If my eyes close, how the fuck I’m gon' compete
Cause some nigga some place somewhere right now
Up at three AM jotting all his thoughts and writing down
His feelings and emotions, ready for the fight now
Let the universe work, time I shed light now
Negative energy is the same as wasted energy
Life ain’t all roses though so this could take a remedy
Only keep the important people in your vicinity
Keep your head high and praise god to infinity
Sleep deprivation, and everybody’s lied, from a much different place
At a much darker time
I, just had to get it off my chest
A hundred miles an hour I know I could use the rest
But I’m stressed
Need some sleep, I can’t go on like this
Tried counting sheep, but there’s always one I miss
Everyone says, I’m getting down to long
Everyone says, you just gotta let it go
You just gotta let it go
You just gotta let it go
