Go To Sleep Lyrics

[Intro: Lupe Fiasco]
*yawn* - Thanks,
Feels good wakin' up,
Get back... on my J.O.
ooohh,
And you will be going, cause I gotta go to work
It's coo...

Verse 1:
I wipe the cold/coal/cool from my eye
Stationed in Antarctica coldest nigga alive
Flow is Armageddon might smite crows (crews/Cruise) from the sky
Before you drive you have to wipe locusts off your rides
But I'm warming up oceans is on the rise
I be Ocean with 11 associates on my side
Colder than Chris Martin guitarin'
Would you look at all these spies?
But they can't see me I took out their eyes (I's)
Replaced them with some me's
So all they see is he's
But I (eye) will never run not even if they cry
See I can never fall not even down their cheek
But I will always ball (bawl)
Let's see who's the first to blink
And I don't need no passwords 'cause I don't need to cheat
But you can say your last words then you can rest in peace
I'm the hook after your last verse
I'm also like the beat
But I will turn it down so you can Go To Sleep

You can go to sleep
Yes you can go to sleep
Said you can go to sleep (x2)
Good night, good night (x2)
(Real niggas up again)
(Phony niggas tuckin' in)
Now you can go to sleep
Yes you can go to sleep
Now you can go to sleep (x2)
Good night, good night (x2)
Official niggas on they job and you know we gonna ball
Real niggas poppin off, phony niggas not at all


Verse 2:
Insomniac since way back see this is what I been like
Bacon, (bakin'?) eggs & pancakes eatin' that at midnight
Gettin' up & goin' hard I don't need no Enzyte
Come across as very calm, mental state is Zen-like
Always had a lot of heart never been the tin type
Never will I drop a dime never been the 10 type
My girlfriend is very fine yeah she is a 10 right?
Mink is draggin' (dragon) on the floor (flow) fire in my windpipe
You should come and clean up after riots that I incite
Things got off the hand-le left behind a landfill
Traffic at a stand still stadium is fan filled
Fill this bitch up with fans you still won't blow my candle-out
My can do spirit's in the house
And it's possessing your possessions did you hear it by the couch?
Boogey man under your bed not in the closet 'cause I'm not a homo
Bonjour no dojo(?) I won't make a peep so...

You can go to sleep
Yes you can go to sleep
Now you can go to sleep
Said you can go to sleep
Good night, good night (x2)
(Real niggas up again)
(Phony niggas tuckin' in)
Now you can go to sleep
Yes you can go to sleep
Now you can go to sleep (x2)
Good night, good night (x2)
Official niggas on they job and you know we gonna ball
Real niggas poppin off, phony niggas not at all

Verse 3:
I wipe the cold/coal/cool from my eye
Then put it in my stove & hope that my dough rise
And that my clothes dry but I am so high
I'm sitting on the storm that I got soaked by
Now you can come close so you can get warm
But you get no pie but you can sell 'em for him
So here's your bow-tie now get ready to fall
Cause humans don't fly, the boy in the balloon
See I didn't go hide/high & I'm comin' back to flow/float again
Close down all that opium but I had to (O-P-E-N? O-P-N?)
And they said they need a hero in (heroin) it so I'm back to dope again
Pull up in that old-school Flintstone drop on rolling pins
Time is all behind me this made me feel old again
Grandma's all around me I can feel her soul within
Hold my daddy over him
I woke the roosters woke the hens
Everything is cashmere count the sheep...

You can go to sleep
Yes you can go to sleep
Now you can go to sleep
Yes you can go to sleep
Good night, good night (x2)
(Real niggas up again)
(Phony niggas tuckin' in)
Yes you can go to sleep (x2)
Now you can go to sleep
Yes you can go to sleep
Good night, good night (x2)
Official niggas on they job and you know we gonna ball
Real niggas poppin off, phony niggas not at all
