They tell me you can only dream when you fell asleep
But now I'm working to achieve, and sleep's the only thing that I never see
And I vowed that my breathing will never cease
Till they're retrieved and I can't let 'em be
I won't let 'em leave, and I've had the same feeling since seventeen
But I wasn't ready then, like when a lemon's green
Now I'm in the magazines almost every week
'Cause I get in Heat like in Tenerife
Right now's better than it's ever been
Never fade like a plant that's evergreen
It's what I hoped in my heart, but my self-doubt's gettin' me
Faith in my craft's getting dark by the day, and I'm getting weak
'Cause I'm new, I'm not where the stars be
They chase dreams together like a slumber party
And I'm on my own, even though I'm smooth sailing
I'm scared to sing, 'cause my nightmare will fade in
When the darkness creeps in
I feel my nightmares watchin' me
And when my dreams are sleepin'
I feel my nightmares watchin' me
(Woah-oh-oh-oh-oh
Woah-oh-oh-oh-oh)
I feel my nightmares watchin' me
(Woah-oh-oh-oh-oh
Woah-oh-oh-oh-oh)
I feel my nightmares watchin' me
Watchin' me
You better wake up 'cause I A.M making moves (Huh?)
And even when I'm dozing, I'm breaking rules
I'm only hitting the sack when I'm training
Too busy tryna keep up with the latest snooze
Made my bed and that's where I'm heading
I fly straight but the best man I embed 'em
Married to the game, was a quiet weddin'
And I had to fight to get her, I am Tekken
Control of my inception
'Cause they try to hit my misses with my erection
See they better marry Donna 'cause when I strike back
Not even Argentina's gonna cry for them
See, I'm awake at night, with the ammunish
'Cause the haters know where the family lives
Anyone I catch playing knock down ginger
Is gonna lose a lot more than Annie did
They say sleep is the cousin of death
But I ain't hearin' that shh… cousin, I'm-
Gang signs, I'm in LA reading
I'm a CEO, mother suckers, I'm next (Sway)
When the darkness creeps in
I feel my nightmares watchin' me
And when my dreams are sleepin'
I feel my nightmares watchin' me
(Woah-oh-oh-oh-oh
Woah-oh-oh-oh-oh)
I feel my nightmares watchin' me
(Woah-oh-oh-oh-oh
Woah-oh-oh-oh-oh)
I feel my nightmares watchin' me
Watchin' me
They're watching me, they watch me sleep
Let me go, uh
I fell asleep on myself, woke up in reality
And daydream 'bout losin' my sanity
I've been rhymin' forever, got a blind flow
So I can see an off note with my eyes closed
But to achieve your dreams
You can't doze off 'cah you'll dream of sleep
I ain't nodding off, but I'm nodding to the beat
I be shocking in my sheets, when I should have been asleep
See, all the dreams I'm fond of
You placed me in the team insomnia
Now, I'm Mr Hard-Worker
In my nightmares I'm Mr Can't-Turn-Up
And I missed my chance, worst luck
Trying to hit women like Mr Ike Turner
Yeah, but I walked from that ish
Now they gotta put me to rest, mattress
When the darkness creeps in
I feel my nightmares watchin' me
And when my dreams are sleepin'
I feel my nightmares watchin' me
(Woah-oh-oh-oh-oh
Woah-oh-oh-oh-oh)
I feel my nightmares watchin' me
(Woah-oh-oh-oh-oh
Woah-oh-oh-oh-oh)
I feel my nightmares watchin' me
Watchin' me
