While You're Sleeping

[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
