lirik lagu rick rikard - never sleep
[verse 1]
comin’ up as a young kid, my eyes still glued to the television
after 9/11 everything became terrorism
bush doctrines, obamacare, private prisons
they took my cousin, wish that i could tell him that i miss him
people dissin’ on me, hate to tell ’em that i’m always wishing
for their own good, just hopin’ that they’ll someday listen
went a couple weeks outside the country, and i lost my vision
but saw the world how it was, so now this cross i’m kissing
listenin’ to illmatic, wishing i could be a street’s disciple
and thinking where the h-ll would i go?
american psycho, i’m slowly going insane
seeing photos of my people with their brains hangin’
mothers cryin’, kids get grown up, and sho’ ’nuff
brothers dyin’, lives get thrown up, it’s so tough
real friends comin’ back when fake friends set us up
fake rappers frontin’ like they know what’s up
[hook]
i never sleep, cause sleep is the cousin of death
motherf-ckers don’t understand if i die tonight
every chance you get, you live for the moment
make sense, don’t it?…
i never sleep, cause sleep is the cousin of death
motherf-ckers don’t understand if i die tonight
every chance you get, you live for the moment
make sense, don’t it?… now make dollars
[verse 2]
i used to think of the world as a nice place to live
before i started living life, no more thoughts as a kid
now i’m grown up, with no luck, new way to live
get by how you can and hope to god you don’t get hit
but i keep through the day, thinking ’bout my dead family
and people who i love, do you love me, they keep asking me
it has to be something my kids got to see
and the prophecies ended up all watching me
so i step with, right foot first, leave my past
understand that it’s hard for good times to last
i’m not trying to make quotes for people to recite
i’m trying to make ways for them to live by
and keep my dignity, always on the top
i can feel them digging me, never gonna stop
and even if i die today, i know i’ll never be gone
cause my voice will live on, homie, my voice will live on. i never sleep!
[hook]
i never sleep, cause sleep is the cousin of death
motherf-ckers don’t understand if i die tonight
every chance you get, you live for the moment
make sense, don’t it?…
i never sleep, cause sleep is the cousin of death
motherf-ckers don’t understand if i die tonight
every chance you get, you live for the moment
make sense, don’t it?… now make dollars
