letra de i can't sleep - knowte

[chorus 1]
i can’t seem to ever get enough sleep
walking through my nightmares so i sight see
and it feels like i’m drowning and i can’t breathe
i just can’t sleep

[verse 1]
i can’t seem to ever catch a break
more than my life is now at stake
and i write till i fill up the page
my pen is a drain
and it’s tied to my brain
so this ink is a stain

one of my top ten fears is never living
they say education frees you but the bills are a prison
more options means less options
i got to pay but i get payed non-cents
nine cents is all that i have in my wallet

but if i dig enough maybe i’d find a dime
maybe i’d call my family if i find the time
if i knew i wouldn’t fail then i would try
to live the life that i always wanted

but i gotta let it go and forget about it
move on and finally learn to live without it
and be like everyone else
man the world is crowded, dam
[chorus 2]
i can’t seem to ever get enough sleep
walking through my nightmares so i sight see
and it feels like i’m drowning and i can’t breathe
i just can’t sleep

[bridge]
i’m barely scratching the surface of this
i wish i was living in ignorant bliss
i’m barely scratching the surface of this
find the right filter i’m taking a pic
i’m barely scratching the surface of this
you say it is fine, i know what it is
i’m barely scratching the surface of this
i want to feel safe in the place that i live

(sirens and glass shatter)

[verse 2]
cause the world is dying and no one cares
got water rising and no one’s scared
people only caught up in their own affairs
and they only care if their speakers blare

and they got a new dance to their new jam
new headline sitting on the news stand
new school shooting, new hashtag, no new plan, no true chance
‘nother black innocent shot to death
i know mothers got nothing left
to tell their babies, tell their siblings why their brother left
spend life in debt
spend life in the pockets of politicians in office
while they are sitting their watching us die and snuggle they profit

i’m sick and tired of talking
i want some action and progress
three jobs, can’t afford an apartment
the people’ve run out of options
there is no way you can stop it

cause we’re not walking, we’re marching
a better world is our target
and still you wonder why i can’t sleep
