Melatonin

I said I really dream in color, but (They don't know)

And every brother ain't a brother, but (They don't know)

Pop melatonin like they Swedish Fish (They don't know)

To give her everything's my dying wish (They don't know)

Role play, she plays the mannequin (They don't know)

Raising my hand, teacher says, "Not again" (They don't know)

The sun is up, but I feel down again (They don't know)

On just one hand I can count all my friends (They don't know)

The understudy for the star, the show must go on

I'm a beast on a leash, I'm towed from the lawn

Another notch in my belt, the food's getting scarce

Another notch in my belt, she shakes up stairs

Drink liquid confidence, tequila's our defense

Get rid of this tense and makes life make sense

As I come off the fence and break through defense

Anxiety is on the ropes and it's getting intense

Population getting tired now (They don't know)

And everybody wants inspired now (They don't know)

Racist emails fire out (They don't know)

We did it in the dark, it's coming out (They don't know)

The world is crazy and I cannot sleep, but (They don't know)

Melatonin good enough to eat, but (They don't know)

I read the paper so that I could see what (They don't know)

I'd rather stay indoors and make a beat, but (They don't know)

My mother said a lot of wise words to me

Her Bible was like her toolie

Peasy-headed and unruly, I made her think she got to me

Following the trail of reefer and **** talking through speakers

Fattest laces through my sneakers

The rappers were ghetto preachers

Thought I had it, so I tried it, for so long I would just hide it

Then I made the crowd say "Oh!", saw them all get excited

I was hooked, I couldn't shake it, the more I got I would take it

Couldn't sleep, couldn't eat, but this life I would not forsake it

Said I really dream in color now (They don't know)

And every brother ain't a brother now (They don't know)

Pop melatonin like they Swedish Fish (They don't know)

To give her everything, my dying wish (They don't know)

So many thoughts in my mind

Making it very hard to unwind

Guess I should take one, just one

So many thoughts in my mind

Making it very hard to unwind

Guess I should take one, just one

So many thoughts in my mind

Making it very hard to unwind

Guess I should take one, just one

So many thoughts in my mind

Making it very hard to unwind

Guess I should take one, just one

This one's for good girls that all gone bad (Just one)

This one, I'm taking when I feel sad (Just one, yeah)

This one, I'm taking to make me strong (Just one)

This one, I'm taking so that I'll live long (Just one, yeah)

This one, I'm taking to make me smile (Just one)

This one, I'm taking to make life worthwhile (Just one)

This one and that one that one and those and these (Just one)

I just want to sleep, I want to be at ease (Just one)
