The way you creep and you crawl and you slither
When it's come to getting what you want you're a killer
A snake in the grass with your camouflage pass
But u never had to fight or struggle for your dinner
Check the headlines, and critize
Mister know it all with your all seeing eyes
But every comment that you make only acts as a disguise
Pretending that you care pretending that you're wise
Sleep in silence, sleep in silence
As I watched over you
As you breathe in
And you breathe out
And the world stand still
Doesn't make a sound
And I cry and I cry and I don't know why
And I hope tomorrow will be better
And I hide the thoughts deep in my mind
I still hope tomorrow will be better
And the tears keep raining
Like bullets around my head, oh
And I cry and I cry and I don't know why
Some man a take life for granted
When them no get what they want they can't understand it
Some no know what they got look how they still want more
Sitting back doing nothing saying life is a bore
It's a pity that you're pretty
'Cause you're rotten to the core
And when ya shed tears ya self nah know what for
Because every time it drizzle you go act like it poor
For every little issue you want start a friggin war
Sleep in silence, sleep in silence
As I watched over you
As you breathe in
And you breathe out
And the world stand still
Doesn't make a sound
And I cry and I cry and I don't know why
And I hope tomorrow will be better
And I hide the thoughts deep in my mind
I still hope tomorrow will be better
And the tears keep raining
Lik bullets around my head, oh
And I cry and I cry and I don't know why
This live is full of light make sure you use it to glow
Every mistake that you make you can use that to grow
If ya slip of and trip don't get sunk down low
Stumble on your feet, jump back inna de flow
Huff and buff and blow and blow
Whether dem a friend of whether dem a fo
Take what you need cause I'm going always have more
But before you get that me going have to let go
Critics and back biters
What is ya want take a bite of
Does it make you feel tougher
When you see a man suffer
I guess I'm a struggler
But I'ma struggle for my right y'all
So when you see me with my lighter, better
Stay away from the fire
Bunn ya!
