Upchurch - Sleep Tight lyrics

Sleep tight when you're clenchin'
On my pillow
Used to dream of bein' famous in a Limo
Sittin' where respected, passin' Cigarillos
So, sleep tight when you're
Clenchin' on my pillow

Snooze away, you bein' awake don't
Affect me none, listen, son
I'm always out here mastermindin'
You the only one you sleepin' on
For fuck's sake, I can't even take a break
Without someone from back in the day cryin'
About bills that they gotta pay
Dog, I was broke, yeah, dog, there was nights
My stomach was growlin'
Depressed head and thinkin' about my life
I painted houses
Now my house is gettin' painted
It was a floor with a pallet
Now a palace with rare cars in the driveway
And, no, I ain't sorry, but I used to be
Until I realized all the sacrifice I made
To try to go down in history
No privacy, no friends, no truth, all lies
CashApp this, Venmo that
Can I cop one of your rides? No

Sleep tight when you're clenchin'
On my pillow
Used to dream of bein' famous in a Limo
Sittin' where respected, passin' Cigarillos
So, sleep tight when you're
Clenchin' on my pillow
So, sleep tight when you're
Clenchin' on my pillow
Midnight in the city with the heroes
I like the guy that I see in the mirror
So, sleep tight when you're
Clenchin' on my pillow

My hometown to me's dear
All the small talk I hear
Half the town thinks I'm weird, yep
For at least the past five years
Your brain don't deal with stress like mine
You do not know what it's like
For people to record you
With the light on a date
In the booth beside ya
I deal with the same shit
That made Kurt Cobain
Itch his motherfuckin' brain with
A long 12 gauge so, when you whisper
"He's crazy and I think he is kinda strange"
I'm thinkin', "No shit, dummy
I get crowded while pumpin' gas"
I get asked a million questions when
I'm out chillin' with my woman
And people hand her their phone
Like she's a fuckin' photographer
And if you didn't get the selfie
At least you gettin' the picture
I got the sauce in the country
But I ain't you bitches' elixir

Sleep tight when you're clenchin'
On my pillow
Used to dream of bein' famous in a Limo
Sittin' where respected, passin' Cigarillos
So, sleep tight when you're
Clenchin' on my pillow
So, sleep tight when you're
Clenchin' on my pillow
Midnight in the city with the heroes
I like the guy that I see in the mirror
So, sleep tight when you're
Clenchin' on my pillow
