Can’t Sleep When I’m Sober

[Intro: Patience]
You got to roll with the brass knuckle, punches in this day and age
On the page or the stage with every cent or wage you're paid, this is played
Your whole aura makes me, sick

[Verse 1: Patience & Bender]
Yeah, you got to roll with the brass knuckle, punches in this day and age
On the page or the stage with every cent or wage you're paid, this is played (Ha!)
Your whole aura makes me sick
Like a resurgence to the Reaganomics of '86
Laziness, you got to get up get out and get
Something, adjusting it's cold as Gorey's alphabet
Without regrets I'd be an unstoppable force
A strong-tempered [?] that'll topple ya' horse
A physical visual jaunt from my jaw draws forth
Abstinent remorse, as you're knocked off course
Well fuck it, I hold back with some class
Matter of fact red blood grace the room like it's blue
I love it, a bold blast from the past
The present of my intentions [?] with a few
I read faces make music and art, with album [?]
And I travel the paths of my fathers' avenues
Yeah, don't like to wear a tie or suit
Put a fist in the air if this also applies to you
This is a battle generation, we battled it all
Can't leave the house without encountering, ya' laughing it off
It's a choice (Ha!) you either waste away or grow
I rap for the unstable and alienated souls
Villains who have nothing that've taken a toll
And Section 8 motherfuckers know we ain't in control (No)

[Chorus: Patience]
I can't sleep when I'm sober
I can't sleep can't sleep
I can't sleep when I'm sober
I can't sleep can't sleep
I'm off the deep end tomorrow
Hand me the remote and a beer and I'm kosher
All this shit up on my mind, I can't sleep when I'm sober
I can't sleep can't sleep
I can't sleep when I'm sober
I can't sleep can't sleep
I'm off the deep end tomorrow
Hand me the remote and a beer and I'm kosher

[Verse 2: Bender & Patience]
You can't mess with the head of the Crab Nebula
I decoy with peace snatch bread from the cash registers
I trapped stress in a pen and I took control of it
Composing this to give your third eyes detached retinas
The last emperor to reign give high respect
But keep yo' hooks out my face ain't time to mummify me yet
Winter king, monarch, find me stuck inside ya' neck
I flutter wings like Mothra colossal butterfly effect
A lost cause, sunk so deep my blood's bubbling with nitrogen
Now why'd you come to eat, ain't nothing sweet in my environment
Walking volcano, carpet-bomb I'm dropping a payload
Onto ya' stage so, so it's, hasta luego
We Loch Ness monsters, stomping ya' block to make quota
Calkuta turning wax into art, like Crayola
Take ya' paint rollers over ya' face
The way you blaze making Beethoven roll in his grave, so it's game over for you
I'm Charlie Darwin, a harbinger to tell these guys
Despite local listings, the evolution won't be televised
So I got six fingers of death walking the badlands
Using up ya' last canteen to water my hash plants (Yeah)

[Chorus: Patience]
I can't sleep when I'm sober
I can't sleep can't sleep
I can't sleep when I'm sober
I can't sleep can't sleep
I'm off the deep end tomorrow
Hand me the remote and a beer and it's over
All this shit up on my mind, I can't sleep when I'm sober
I can't sleep can't sleep
I can't sleep when I'm sober
I can't sleep can't sleep
I'm off the deep end tomorrow
Hand me the remote and a beer and I'm kosher
What, yeah, I can't sleep when I'm sober
Patience Flight Distance can't sleep when I'm sober
Uh-uh, I can't sleep when I'm sober
That's Bender Flight Distance can't sleep when he's sober
Once more, I can't sleep when I'm sober
Calkuta Flight Distance can't sleep when he's sober
Oh no, I can't sleep when I'm sober
Crack Moses on the beat can't sleep when he's sober
And we out
