In My Sleep Lyrics - Singles - Jon Connor

They give a real talk of the year award? 

Okay, so y'all wanna know what it's like for niggas rhyming? 

All they love is gone 

But they force you to find a silver lining 

And the playbook empty 

Done ran through every possible option 

So blue collar man, they think I'm crippin' Mississippi's Compton 

What the check ain't went through? 

How about the bread I lent you? 

Got a few views on Youtube 

Guess I ain't got to pay rent too, huh? 

Ever think you meant to do that one thing that you love to do? 

So you take a chance, take the stage and the ground move up under you 

And you drop 

And you keep falling, keep falling feel like it's never gonna stop 

And it's ironic 

Cause you in this bottomless pit 'til you get to the top 

And the cold sweats 

Waking up still in the projects, no progress 

This a dream or a nightmare? 

I don't know yet 

Then I get that call from my lil bro he tells me I'm his hero 

Just when I thought my life was screwed up like Texas no zero 

Got a second wind and picked up the pieces 

I'm a different species 

Me and Connor: death before dishonor 

Holla at me man 

I lock myself up in my room at night and pray to God 

They told me one day shit gonna change but I felt this way for so long 

I lock myself up in my room at night 

Hope He hear me crying in my room at night

I lock myself up in my room at night and pray to God 

They told me one day shit gonna change but I felt this way for so long 

I lock myself up in my room at night 

Pray He hear me crying in my room at night 

Ain't nobody gonna give you props 

'til the world jump on your nuts 

It's just that simple 

By then you won't give a fuck 

All the nights you was by yourself 

Couldn't get nobody to pick up the phone 

All the days you wanted to reach out 

Ain't nobody have arms that long 

Had a dream I was back on the playground 

And I ain't have a care in the world 

Haters won't let me breathe 

Like it ain't enough air in the world 

All the nights I spent on this writing shit 

It ain't fair my girl 

She ain't wanna let go, but I had to let go 

If I couldn't be there for my girl 

I ain't never by myself 

Always get beside myself 

I really don't give a fuck 

But I guess I never really apply myself 

It's just easier that way 

Cause people come and people go 

Only thing constant is change 

Everything you see gonna go 

I don't want you to feel my pain 

Feeling yours is hard enough 

Find a reason to smile 

Yeah I know the shit hard as fuck 

Reminisce on the things you love 

Give thanks for the things you have 

Take a deep breath, look at where you at 

Follow my voice, let me bring you back 

Let me bring you back

I lock myself up in my room at night 

Hope He hear me crying in my room at night 

I lock myself up in my room at night and pray to God 

They told me one day shit gonna change but I felt this way for so long 

I lock myself up in my room at night 

Pray He hear me crying in my room at night 

It goes down easy 

It goes down easy 

It goes down easy 

It goes down easy 

I'm running I'm running I've been gone too long 

I'm running I'm running I've been gone too long 

It goes down easy 

And you can hear me crying 

It was days I couldn't come outside 

All those nights when I was on my own 

Lord knows it ain't easy actually 

So I'm running 

I'm running 

I lock myself up in my room at night and pray to God 

They told me one day shit gonna change but I felt this way for so long 

I lock myself up in my room at night 

Hope He hear me crying in my room at night 

I lock myself up in my room at night and pray to God 

They told me one day shit gonna change but I felt this way for so long 

I lock myself up in my room at night 

Pray He hear me crying in my room at night
