Lose Sleep |
| Yes-yes, today, shake-shake, hey-hey |
| Come on, yeah-yeah, come on |
| I’m just here to push limits |
| Shit-scared of heights |
| But I stay on top of the game just to say I did it |
| Show young black kids that you can live it |
| Free your mind with it, be proud of your pigment |
| I wasn’t for a while |
| Too many times vilified for being a shade different |
| Started hating myself and all dark skin |
| Playing myself, Charlie Sheen, Two and a Half Men |
| Remember after school, train station |
| Busta «Break Ya Neck» blasting from iPod Mini |
| Thankful class finished |
| So I could go and play Majora’s Mask with my little brother |
| When cops come up and start asking me |
| «Where you from? |
| What you up to? |
| Oh, from Moorabbin? |
| That’s half an hour from here, not from 'round here |
| Boy, what you selling? |
| Where’s your product?» |
| I hadn’t even touched drugs at this point, except maybe a joint |
| But my skin fitted the description |
| So 'oink oink' had to be deployed |
| Next day at school, told my friends |
| The facts of how they treated the boy |
| They said I’m being crazy |
| 'Cause to them, black voice is white noise |
| That’s the world that we’re living in |
| We seem to forget |
| The dark days of history, yeah |
| And time will manifest |
| The endless possibility, yeah |
| Open your eyes to see |
| The world is darker than it seems |
| So we dreaming on (Dreaming on) |
| Enough with the crazy, crazy talk |
| Yeah, yeah |
| Dave Chappelle taught me |
| The worst thing to call someone is crazy |
| Dismissing all the pain that plagues them in one word |
| Just to avoid confrontation with yourself |
| We prefer to sit on a Chesterfield lounge, while microwaving |
| A meal by McCain and watching Australian Idol contestant failing |
| While the house that we’re in is in flames |
| All because it’s the routine (I dunno know about that, man) |
| So when they say, «Too deep» |
| I say, «Product of reality, you’re too deep» |
| 'Cause I’m just using eyes, ears and news feeds to get up to speed |
| Shit, only those that don’t read between the lines abuse these |
| Therefore I don’t lose sleep |
| 'Cause I’m well aware that’s the world that we’re living in |
| We seem to forget |
| The dark days of history, yeah |
| And time will manifest |
| The endless possibility, yeah |
| Open your eyes to see |
| The world is darker than it seems |
| So we dreaming on (Dreaming on) |
| Enough with the crazy, crazy talk |
| Open your eyes |
| Open your eyes |
| Open your eyes |
| Open your eyes |
