i’d like to make myself believe that planet earth turns slowly
its hard to say that i’d rather stay awake when I’m asleep
cause everything is never as it seems
leave my door open just a crack
please take me away from here
cause i feel like such an insomniac
please take me away from here
why do i tire of counting sheep?
please take me away from here
when im far too tired to fall asleep

It ain’t hard to tell, I excel, then prevail
The mic is contacted, I attract clientele
My mic check is life or death, breathe in a sniper’s breath
I exhale the yellow smoke of buddha through righteous steps
Deep like The Shining, sparkle like a diamond
Sneak a Uzi on the island in my army jacket linin’
Hit the Earth like a comet, invasion
Nas is like the Afrocentric Asian, half-man, half-amazing
