I hardly sleep man I stay wake late and I read
Know whats up more in this life that I have to achieve
Maybe the sense that I have is quite more than common
I'm not a rapper I’m a speaker with a knack for rhymin'
I think the world thinks I have no sense
Because I’m working as a temp, making a few cents
Working a job where my co-workers roaches and rats
They the good ones, the others addicted to crack
Why am I here?
Everyday I gotta ask myself
With time they say it decays my mental health
Say I’m nuts cuz I truly do believe in a dream
Yo I’m sorry burger king I’m not a part of the team
I hardly sleep man I stay wake late and I read
Know whats up more in this life that I have to achieve
Maybe the sense that I have is quite more than common
I'm not a rapper I’m a speaker with a knack for rhymin'
Now is it wrong to really think there’s something better than this
I could walk around flossing empty bottles of Cris
I only write with hopes of just paying a bill
Get a deal writing stuff that I really do feel
I would be a fool listen to the stuff that they said
Get a whack wife a job and be better off dead
I mean ever since the cat Fred cut off his dreads
Its like I’m wiping off that idiot that’s wrote on my head
I hardly sleep man I stay wake late and I read
Know whats up more in this life that I have to achieve
Maybe the sense that I have is quite more than common
I'm not a rapper I’m a speaker with a knack for rhymin'
Everybody talk to me like I’m going on 3
But they don’t squat and ask me - what do you wanna be?
And I go so bananas cuz I’m without a job
Having credit and bill collectors I imperfectly dodge
But lately the world got a bit too shady
From little innocent kids up to sweet old ladies
and I’m spitting asking ya’ll if probably I’m just crazy
My world just gave me a unanimous maybe
I hardly sleep man I stay wake late and I read
Know whats up more in this life that I have to achieve
Maybe the sense that I have is quite more than common
I'm not a rapper I’m a speaker with a knack for rhymin'
