Stilo Jordan - Sleep Talking Lyrics

Yea
Uh
Sleep talking every night
Dreaming bout a better life
Record it all I grab the mic
Reality hitting as I rise awake
And I feel the heat of the sun on my face
My feet on the ground but I'm running in place
Like if I was sleep I could just fly away
Instead I trip I hit the ground and I break
I just wish there was a ladder leading to the clouds yea
I wish my anxiety didn't hold me down yea
I wish I could speak to a friend instead of a crowd yea
I wish I could hold up my head to carry this crown yea
Please don't wake me up
Honestly I feel like I've had enough
I'm sick and tired of always trying to be tough
How I carry myself you would think that I'm buff
Depression comes and I just sleep it away
It's always dark because I sleep through the day
The drama come and I just sleep till it fades
The world to me is getting hard embrace
But maybe its cause I don't have what it takes
Sleep talking every night
Dreaming bout a better life
I pray to the Lord my soul to keep
But If I don't wake up I think I'll be fine
I'm sleep talking every night
Dreaming bout a better life
I pray to the Lord my soul to keep
But If I don't wake up I think I'll be fine
I just got too many things on my mind
Look they been saying I'll get better in time
If there was a drug without all the side effects
I would be the first person line
Lately it's been getting hard to unwind
My purpose in life getting harder to find
I thought I would be on top of the world by now
But it's getting harder to climb
Honestly the music scene got me jaded
The best in my city don't gotta debate it
Don't want to be great look I want to be greatest
I'm getting tired of always moving with patience
But this right here gone be the last time
That I write about the truth
She broke my heart until it flatlined
That's when I fixed it in the booth
Foreal instead of resorting to bottles and pills
Got aspirations of me making a mil
And understanding that I gotta rebuild
And working harder to get back on the field
Working on me till the damage was healed
A couple labels started offering deals
I know the money could pay all my bills
But I turned it down 'cause if I'm being real
Me and my brother had got me right here
I don't trust no one not even the mirror
Lucid dreaming got me seeing it clearer
Knowing my nightmares ain't nothing to fear
I know that I shed a couple of tears
I felt my heart get a rip and a tear
I carried on with it like I didn't care
Now I'm
Sleep talking every night
Dreaming bout a better life
I pray to the Lord my soul to keep
But If I don't wake up I think I'll be fine
I'm sleep talking every night
Dreaming bout a better life
I pray to the Lord my soul to keep
But If I don't wake up I think I'll be fine
Ay 2020 I take over
Make sure that my cup runneth over
That's drinks on drinks on drinks on me
And we gone drink till we get sober
