[Hook]
Sleepless nights
Sleepless nights
They stay blinded by the flashing lights
Flashing lights
One day we're gonna see the sights
See the sights, it's our right
Sleepless nights, endless heights
Heights
Working to the bone damn right ain't paid shit
But ain't no time wasted, shoe shine hatred
In the winter nights naked, given the chance I'd take it
Swear we're gonna make it
But can't fake it the hatred it takes me like a wave and on the cold sand breaks
I'm living pay to pay, and this dog's still waiting to have his day
[Verse]
Keep your head down this is what dreams are made from
Sweat blood and tears stream down my face to make bombs
Bury my qualms up in the yard I'm still living with mum
I'll clench my palms til what's left of my soul is numb
Working to the bone damn right ain't paid shit
And let's face it, people gonna say shit
No cash to play with, but motherfuckers know I got a whole damn crew to slay with
New $outh $ound got your set sedated
Tied to the bricks that we should be making
Rummage through your pockets throw you in the lake bitch
Waiting for the props but they're still belated
Impatiently waiting for my time to break from my stride and deliver a piece of my mind
Tearing the limbs from my body my heart on the line to make peace with the demons inside
Try to tell myself that I'm fine
But my sanity's slipping I'm lying awake
And my body just shivers and quakes
But I know that I'll never break
I'll never break
[Hook]
Sleepless nights
Sleepless nights
They stay blinded by the flashing lights
Flashing lights
One day we're gonna see the sights
See the sights, it's our right
Sleepless nights, endless heights
Heights
Working to the bone damn right ain't paid shit
But ain't no time wasted, shoe shine hatred
In the winter nights naked, given the chance I'd take it
Swear we're gonna make it
But can't fake it the hatred it takes me
Like a wave and on the cold sand breaks
I'm living pay to pay, and this dog's still waiting to have his day
