[Verse 1]
|
Now I lay me down to sleep
|
I pray my dreams don't slowly creep
|
Caught up in a web with no escape
|
Something the mind can't break unless you wide awake
|
Have you ever had a nightmare, and been scared?
|
Then woke up in the morning and forgot it was there
|
Then the shit really happens like deja-vu
|
But you sit back and act like you never knew
|
The same situation happened in my life
|
And I feel that I sould tell it cause the timing is right
|
Now the only reason that I'm speakin' is cause I'm teachin'
|
Thinkin' if I let it out my head'll stop tweakin'
|
Mixed emotions caused from stress
|
That reunite when you lay your head down to rest
|
It's like creatures of the night leavin nothing but bad news
|
And things about the future that might make you confused
|
|
[Verse 2]
|
I remember way back in the day
|
At the age of 13 before moms passed away
|
The dreams that I had people said weren't right
|
Like the evilness of afterlife lurkin' in the night
|
Candlelight blew out, bed stops shakin'
|
Down on my knees prayin', askin' to be taken
|
To another life where it's safer than this
|
Not a dream but reality I hope for this wish
|
But it never came true so I'm stuck in this place
|
Just a native actin' crazy that keeps changin' his face
|
Searchin' for the final answer so I can spread the word
|
Now that you really see me I'm just askin' to be heard
|
We all in this together, so they call us night crawlers
|
Think the world's feelin' weary because we gettin' smarter
|
Silohettes in the hallway, dead men holla
|
Can't sleep at night cause the spirits won't allow ya
|
|
[Blaze Ya Dead Homie Talking]
|
You know bein' dead
|
I remember thinkin' death would be horrible and terrifying
|
Shit, I mean that's what everybody thinks
|
But now, having died and shit
|
I can now see everything
|
Like every question the living have, I now know the answers to
|
It's like I'm awake now, and living was just a dream
|
|
[Verse 3]
|
Call me the dream catcher, mother earth smoker
|
Peyote pack piece pipes hallucinatin' toker
|
Blessed with the wisdom that you see in my eyes
|
Don't be surprised if you ever think you caught up inside
|
Like the awakaning of life, or the passion of death
|
That keeps you jumpin' up in shivers from ice cold breath
|
Now you swear you're being followed everytime that you rest
|
Or you feel sharp pains drillin' deep in your chest
|
I don't expect anyone to believe if they don't want to
|
But don't expect yourself to rest in peace when spirits haunt you
|
Make your choice people dream it or not
|
It's time to look into the situation we got
|
Pinpoint the whole problem, get rid of all the anger
|
Release all the stress before the world becomes a stranger
|
Medicine man above your headboard with a dream catcher
|
In the blood of the boogie man the warrior'll protect ya
|
