You Can’t Sleep

[Intro]
Aight...
I'm really tired of all the stereotypical nonsense in the Hip-Hop industry
Brothers tend to think that if you don't wear the latest gear and have gold teeth
And if you don't give people mad attitude you're not representing Hip-Hop - That's garbage
If you are not from the ghetto you're not Hip-Hop - That's garbage
If you don't have a phat ride - That's garbage
I'm representing Northern NJ baby, the suburbs
I get just as splendid ???
It's not where you at but if you have skills
Check it

[Verse 1]
I like to bug out and get ill a little bit
And I don't walk around thinking that I'm the shit
I just flow, man - you know, rippin up tracks and ciphers
Since I was in the crib with diapers
The brother with the extra eyes got vision
On how to rock the microphone with precision
My Nickel-Plated peeps get off like Foxxxy
My lines connect like guys at the Roxy
Guns and violence, that ain't my thing
I can't swing with that, yo - that ain't me
See, I'm livin in New Jersey, the suburb region
Stress-free, about six miles from the city
Stahp - I'm still hard-core hiphop
Without a Gat - and a lot of A&Rs can't see that
Thinkin that a brother is cool with
Because I don't look like a crook and leave one shook
You can't sleep

[Chorus]
You can drool but you can't sleep
There's plenty of action 'n herbs out here in the suburbs
You can drool but you can't sleep
There's plenty of action 'n herbs out here in the suburbs
You can drool but you can't sleep
There's plenty of action 'n herbs out here in the suburbs
You can drool but you can't sleep
There's plenty of action 'n herbs out here in the suburbs

[Verse 2]
My tracks are leavin imprints embedded in your head like a memory
So you remember me constantly
Bangin like a gang through ya speakers everyday
Set trippin to fullest like them kids in LA
I like the past time like Jason King
Doing this right here everyday, all year
I'm representing Teaneck like a Senator
But this ain't D.C. Washington and I don't wear a suit
A pair of boots, some jeans and a hoodie
That's all I need - oh yeah, the bong ??? weed too
To get open and ready like a catcher's man
So be a asshole and drop shit
Come on, really - silly thinking rabid with the bad habit of frontin
Thinkin that the suburbs is all herbs
You need to kill it like a cockroach son
For real, or you be layin on your back, get done
From Teaneck raw to Uptown, and around the Metro spot
I kick a flow that's hot
For brothers wanna nap on the Jersey rap, that's cleaned up
Wake up son, you can't sleep

[Chorus]
You can drool but you can't sleep
There's plenty of action 'n herbs out here in the suburbs
You can drool but you can't sleep
There's plenty of action 'n herbs out here in the suburbs
You can drool but you can't sleep
There's plenty of action 'n herbs out here in the suburbs
You can drool but you can't sleep
There's plenty of action 'n herbs out here in the suburbs

[Verse 3]
I'm in the God's Aid but I relate the ghetto style well
My rhymes are hell, and cause grief
Let me be brief, I bring the pain with the method
Man, I got your pressure points dead on lock
For the mic block
Cause my mind spray like Jeru - All Ova You
Makin you scared power you
Your bitch-ass - switchin - yo' - ass - type cream puff
Rough - conversation - but - 'nuff - hesitation - punk
You grew, pulled a Hip-Hop formulation
Played every hour on the radio station
You're butter?! - please, you're just barely margarine
You're tryna be Cock D but barely hardening
You can get the finger from my knuckle to my nail
Cause I deliver like shit like Bibles in the mail
People try to catch mad rest on my nest
Don't ask me why I'm muthafuckin stressed
Yo, you can't sleep

[Chorus]
You can drool but you can't sleep
There's plenty of action 'n herbs out here in the suburbs
You can drool but you can't sleep
There's plenty of action 'n herbs out here in the suburbs
You can drool but you can't sleep
There's plenty of action 'n herbs out here in the suburbs
You can drool but you can't sleep
There's plenty of action 'n herbs out here in the suburbs
