Lyrics
[Intro]
Just take me right before the shit, though
They doin' all kind of shit
[Verse 1]
Uh, I got numbers in my phone, that'll never ring again
'Cause Allah done sent them home, and they'll never, uh
[Verse 2]
I got
I got numbers on my phone, that'll never ring again
'Cause Allah done called them home, so until we sing again
I got texts in my phone, that'll never ping again
I screenshot 'em, so I got 'em, I don't want this thing to
[Verse 3]
I got numbers in my phone, that'll never ring again
I got
I got
I got
[Verse 4]
I got numbers in my phone, that'll never ring again
'Cause Allah done called them home, so until we sing again
I got texts on my phone, that'll never ping again
Screenshot 'em, so I got 'em, I don't want this thing to end
I got numbers on my phone, that'll never ring again
'Cause Allah done called them home, so until we sing again
I got texts on my phone, that'll never ping again
I screenshot 'em, so I got 'em, I don't want this thing to
[Chorus]
Sleep well
Sleep well
Lately I haven't been sleeping well, sleeping well
Sleep well
Sleep well
Lately I haven't been sleeping well, sleeping well
Sleep well
Sleep well
Lately I haven't been sleeping well, I been
[Bridge]
I'm just vibing out right now, you know what I'm sayin', like, you feel me?
Yo 'cause, it's so good, right?
'Cause, it's like, man
It's needed, you know what I mean?
Gotta finish them scriptures, man
It's needed, man
It's needed
[Verse 5]
Eyes fiery, cried tears to my diary
Sometimes a Xanny bar can't help you fight back the anxiety
I go to my Lord quietly, teardrops on our faces
Tear drops on my face, it's like teardrops become waterfalls by the time they reach my laces
My eyelids is like levees, but my tear ducts is like glaciers
As I contemplate creation
The salt that heals my wounds pour out my eyes just like libations
I can't stop my mind from racing, I got numbers on my phone
Pictures on my phone
The day my mama died, I scrolled her texts all day long
The physical returns but the connections still stay strong
Now I understand why you used to cry sometimes we ride down Claiborne
You just missed your
You just missed your mama
Now I just miss my mamas
The clothes we wear to bed at night to sleep is just pajamas
The flesh we roam this earth in is a blessing, not a promise
I bow with those who bow to the creator and pay homage
[Chorus]
Sleep well
Lately I haven't been sleep well
I even hit the beach to soak my feet and skip some seashells
Sleep well
The lump inside my throat sometimes just towers like the Eiffel
Sometimes I wonder do the trees get sad when they see leaves fell
Sleep well
The last time that kissed you, you felt cold but you looked peaceful
I read our message thread when I get low and need a refill
Sleep well
[Chorus]
Sleep well
Sleep well
Lately I haven't been sleeping well, sleeping well
[Verse 6]
I got numbers in my phone, that'll never ring again
'Cause Allah done called them home, so until we sing again
I got texts on my phone, that'll never ping again
I screenshot 'em, so I got 'em, I don't want this thing to end
[Verse 7]
I got numbers on my phone, that'll never ring again
'Cause Allah done called them home, so until we sing again
I got texts on my phone, that'll never ping again
I screenshot 'em, so I got 'em, I don't want this thing to–
