I Can’t Sleep

[Chorus]
Put my head in my pillow I can't sleep tonight
Eyes tired I cry out I can't find the light
The nightmares are coming should I even fight?
I do not know where I'm going
I'm hoping
It's somewhere I can be alone
Just away from all the suffering I've known known known...

[Verse 1]
Y'all ever felt that moment
Where you feel so broken
That rather than fight you own it
Own this
Sadness
Deep in you
And when someone says they are broken
You stop them
And say "hold my depression"
Like Nate's balloons but we are lost with no form of expresin'
The pain so we keep hoping
That maybe this song, this person
Will help us find ourselves
Or maybe just help us get lost in the moment

[Chorus]
Put my head in my pillow I can't sleep tonight
Eyes tired I cry out I can't find the light
The nightmares are coming should I even fight?
I do not know where I'm going
I'm hoping
It's somewhere I can be alone
Just away from all the suffering I've known known known...

[Interlude to Verse 2]
I know the beat hasn't started yet
But can I get
A moment
Of silence?

[Verse 2]
Alright I guess it's time to jump back in
Back this
Music within
They call rap evil but are blind to their own sin
And see
"Evil rap" gets a bad rap but no worse than you being racist
I find myself pacin'
Wonder why I'm so broken
And there's an entire generation
That feels just like me
We
Want to be more than just "Gen Z"
We're blinded trying to be different but I hope I've helped you again see
Most humans will end in Hell ain't no way to break that gently
The fact life ends suddenly on our minds constantly
But we all know out brokenness will end in suffering
Hence the
Reason we stay awake at night questioning
Our lives
We know there's something out there and we're terrified
Wondering what life secrets out there are classified
Wondering how our lives can be fine yet we're empty inside
Become rich, famous, verified
It don't matter, you'll probably end up committing suicide
And where did our feelings go?
Did our feelings die?
I think we ourselves killed them
I think I just committed emotional genocide

... Emotional genocide

... Maybe that's why I feel dead inside

... Maybe that's why I feel dead inside

[Chorus]
Put my head in my pillow I can't sleep tonight
Eyes tired I cry out I can't find the light
The nightmares are coming should I even fight?
I do not know where I'm going
I'm hoping
It's somewhere I can be alone
Just away from all the suffering I've known known known...
Known known known...
