I'm tryna sleep
I felt like I was falling and it woke me up
35 dollars in the bank you think were broke enough
I'm tired of asking questions, without hearing suggestions 
Now I got the impression it's fear that's got me choking up
Yeah, so I remember taking flight
Now all I know is falling can get really cold at night
Only the stars can give me light but they seem so far away
At the same time the ground is under clouds that won't decay

Wake up, wake up, but where is the sun
Stay up, pay up, if morning has come
Straight up, straight up no breath in my lungs
Save us, save us, what have we become

I feel numb, yet on edge, I think my family sees it
I lay awake, in my bed, hoping it's just for a season
I see the mist, from my breath, really not sure if I need it 
Got enemies in my head, think my soul might be freezin' 
I be tryna get even with all my demons
Look again now they leaving
They all seem gone when I'm drinking, oh please let me sleep in -sleep
I don't really wanna wake up, life's easy when you don't move
Life's happy when you stay dumb, but life's dumb when you so blue
They might laugh but it's so true
If they ask who told you
Prolly be surprised cause I act like I'm supposed to
Got plenty fake smiles they think it's real when they don't know you
Scared to make the wrong choices so instead I don't move

Homie now I'm floating I'm dazed and
Lost falling deep in the day's end
I got demons gotta face them
What's gonna happen if my days end

Shut up I'm tryna sleep
I'm tryna sleep, I'm tryna sleep, I'm tryna sleep
I'm tryna sleep, I'm tryna sleep
Shut up I'm tryna sleep

Eyes to the skies in my room I lay awake
Thinking I could disappear like I'm David Blaine
At least something new is coming think I'll stay the same
Seasons change man I'm done playing the blaming game
Yeah, I'm thinking it's about time 
I've followed many paths to try to live on cloud nine
But none of them is meant for me like working out rhymes
There's so many bars to hate on why I gotta doubt mine

Ugh, I'm tired of being nervous 
I'm grateful for my gift but I know for sure I don't deserve it
I'm still finding my purpose, I'm still hoping my hurtin'
Will fade away with curtains, help me feel peace as a person
Honestly I have been learning, I been sitting in sermons
Keep forgetting love is freely given never had to earn it 
But still my stomach churning, and still my head is burning 
And still my shoulders ache from constantly holding these burdens, Man

I'm just tryna sleep
I'm just tryna sleep
Shut up, I'm tryna sleep
