I Cant Go to Sleep Lyrics

    [Ghostface Killah]
    Technique is ill son, watch how I spill one
    Peace to Biggie Tupac Big L and Big Pun
    Havoc on the streets of Staten, snitches
    House niggaz children watch as they produce the same pattern
    Somebody raped our women, murdered our babies
    Hit us with the cracks and guns in the early 80's
    FOR THOSE THAT MURDERED ME SHALL STAND BEFORE GOD
    TO FALL AT THE HANDS OF FATE, THEN OUT COMES THE ROD
    Bring it back, bring it back, bring it back,
    bring it back, bring it back.. {*record run backwards*}

    What the fuck is goin on? I can't go to sleep
    Feds jumpin out they jeeps, I can't go to sleep
    Babies with flies on the cheeks, it's hard to go to sleep
    Ish bowled two sixes twice, I couldn't go to sleep
    Aiyyo we deep in the stairs, we carry (?) guns
    (?) got, hit up with the big shit, bam-bam
    Stop at the cheeba spot, then pass the leak spot
    So past y'all niggaz again, you took a cheap shot
    Not knowin FUCKIN WITH ME, you get your meat chopped
    YOU THOUGHT WE FELL ON OUR FACE? YOU NEED TO BE STOPPED
    CALL ON THE CHARIOTS, CALL ON AN AMBULANCE
    YOU BETTER SMILE MY NIGGA, YOU ON CANDID CAM
    Gangsta broad, these be the laws, walk with big balls
    Nigga motherfuckin eunuch, I even take which was yours
    I'm the nigga that made you man
    When your rap wasn't doin well, I'm the nigga that gave you a hand!

    [Isaac Hayes]
    Don't kill your brother, learn to love each other
    Don't get mad.. cause it ain't that bad
    Look at who you are.. you've come so far
    It's in your hands, just be a man
    Get the jelly out your spine!
    Cobwebs, out of your mind

    [RZA]
    I can't go to sleep, I can't shut my eyes
    They shot the father of his moms, killed him seven times
    They shot Malcolm in the chest front of his little seeds
    Jesse watched, as they shot King on the balcony
    Exported Marcus, Garvey cause he tried to spark us
    with the knowledge of ourselves, and our forefathers
    Ohh Jacqueline you heard the rifle shots cracklin
    Her husband head in her hair, you tried to put it back in
    AMERICA'S WATCHIN, BLOOD STAINED INK BLOTCHES
    MEDGAR TOOK ONE TO THE SKULL FOR INTERGRATING COLLEGE
    WHAT'S THE SCIENCE? SOMEBODY? THIS IS TRICK KNOWLEDGE
    THEY TRY TO KEEP US ENSLAVED AND STILL SCRAPE FOR DOLLARS
    Walkin through Park Hill, drunk as a +FUCK+
    Lookin around like, these +DEVILS+, I'm ready to break this world down
    They got me trapped up in a metal gate, just stressed out with hate
    And just, give me no time to relax, and use my mind to meditate
    What should I do? Grab a blunt or a brew?
    Grab a two-two and run out there AND PUT THIS FUCKIN VIOLENCE IN YOU?
    I can't go to sleep, I can't shut 'em son.. I..

    [Isaac Hayes - overlapping RZA at the end]
    Don't let the game make you lose your head
    You should be callin the shots instead
    The power is in your hands..
    Stop all this cryin, and be a man
