lirik lagu matlock - don't sleep
lie wide wake counting the cracks in the ceiling
hoping the sandman might come and knock me out like peter mcneeley
toss and turn, my eyes are heavy, they just won’t stay closed
kick off the covers (get out of bed) turn on the tube (blaze a roach)
last time i slept, i dreamt we loved our neighbors
friends and family were loyal and returned all favors
but when i woke, all i saw was jokers and strangers
all my p-ssy partners was gone along with all my papers (haters!)
a lot of peoples two-faced
that’s why i keep my boots laced
stomp through this swamp like a sasquatch for you snakes
(for true fakes) for hoes, for all the co-d’s that turn state
for the shady motherf-ckers that wasn’t down in the first place
who’s your ace? who the f-ck got love and who doesn’t
who’s your homie (who’s a phony)
who’s for real? (who’s frontin?)
i count the days in the week while you fools count sheep
i’ll have enough time for z’s when i’m six feet deep
(don’t sleep) frauds, connivers, money-misers and cheats
(don’t sleep) betrayal, tattle-tails, lies and deceit
cats will get you for your sh-t when you just trying to eat
bury the hatchet in your back and let you die in the street
(don’t sleep) watch your friends and keep your enemies close
(don’t sleep) drugs and l-st, trust and treasury notes
drugs, l-st, trust and treasury notes
anything goes, these cats will raise the razor’s edge to your throat
so burn the midnight oil and let the effigy roast
don’t sleep
people will lie right to your face with a pearly grin
no matter what urban city or backwood ‘burb you in
your best friend, your pops, your own mom or your girlfriend
could set you up (sell you out) bring you down (or turn you in)
could be your man next to you, same cat that you’d brawl with
head bobbing along to my song saying it’s raw sh-t
he’s mad fake (what?) he’s a traitor, he’s a d-mn flake
he’ll swear sh-t on a hand shake (and flip like a pancake)
skate with your change while you’re dumbfound, clueless
all your boys ain’t the truest, every crew has a judas
don’t be the first to snooze in a room of opportunists’
or cast pearls to swine (now that’s just foolish)
for benedicts, turncoat pr-cks and fellow theives
i keep a shank on the hip and tricks in both sleeves
believe none of what i hear and only half of what i see
and i don’t trust no-motherf-cking-body but me
(don’t sleep) watch your back ’cause all your friends will be ghost
(don’t sleep) keep a weapon and your enemies close
ready alone i’ll die on both my feet defending my post
y’all burned me on too many times now i could never be dosed
(don’t sleep) rumors flying, enterprising and beef
(don’t sleep) blackmail, records sales, lies and deceit
they’re out for dolo, you can see it in their eyes when they speak
they’ll stab you in your f-cking back and let you die in the street
don’t sleep
smoke a cigarillo, scratch my 5 o’clock shadow
up at the crack of dawn like i’m tony orlando
yawn and blow out the candle, stroll down the block and back
street creature (moonshiner) night owl (insomniac)
long ago i slept-walked to all dreams end
where all the people say they love you but it’s all pretend (friend?)
now all your unisoms and tylenol pms
can’t put me down enough to float me out to rem
to the heads i gave that in return ripped out my heart
kicked in on the ground and tore it up in a thousand parts
your karma’s out tomorrow, the stormy day’s about to start
it’s gonna come from out the dark and blow your little house apart
and on that day when the worms seek the sidewalk
i’ll be awake to watch ’em get ate by the nighthawks
old friends and new foes, those i once knew
f-ck you, may all your nightmares come true
(don’t sleep) frauds, connivers, money-misers and cheats
(don’t sleep) betrayal, tattle-tails, lies and deceit
cats will get you for your sh-t when you just trying to eat
bury the hatchet in your back and let you die in the street
(don’t sleep) watch your friends and keep your enemies close
(don’t sleep) drugs and l-st, trust and treasury notes
anything goes, these cats will raise the razor’s edge to your throat
so burn the midnight oil and let the effigy roast (don’t sleep)
don’t sleep
don’t sleep
