Chitta - Insomniac Cay
See these daysI barely even sleep anymore
Might as well call me
Insomniac Cay
Think about it
I stay up all night
Thoughts race through my mind
Thinking about this life
Can't close my eyes, even if I tried
3:47 and I'm hardly resting
Look, my mind won't settle even for a second
Listen, my tone is different, cause I'm growing restless
I'm in, class of my own, n***a fuck a guest-list
They say
"We miss you Cay, when you coming back?"
Thinking 'bout it, probably never, with this college debt
Cause think about it, only 20, hard to get a loan
So for now, I'm plotting tryna get out my parents home
And please, don't get me wrong, cause I appreciate em
But feel me, leaving that college, it was devastating
And no, wasn't because I loved American
I just hate the thought of starting something, without finishing
Can't really figure how our education system works
True knowledge, takes a backseat, they want our money first
Rich kids flunking classes, drinking, popping percs
But let me fail a class, they quick-ly kicking me to the curb
Others got that granddaddy wealth, they pay em off to stay
While I'm at home cause we ain't got money to throw away
Make no mistake, admittedly, I let my grades slip
But how I'm s'posed to learn when professors ain't saying shit
They got their little lesson plans, and yeah that's nice and all
But can't no teacher show me lesson plans for how to ball
In a world that's set up for people like me to fall
No woe is me, just how I see it, that's how I'ma call
College dream's a scam to me, the man leads us to believe
The only way to reach success is chasing after degrees
But please, we break the bank for tuition and fees
By any means but that diploma comes with no guarantees
If it don't work, it's back to beginning
Societal system that we live in is relentless
They're racing to fill up jails with black men and children
Every day murdering n****s, oppressing our women
Innocent people locked up, murderers free
Government can profit off of it, but cuff n****s for weed
I don't gotta smoke to know that that just isn't right
They be giving n****s life for a signal light
Wrong is wrong, law's the law, and what's right is right
But judges need to start making punishments fit the crimes
They say blow ya money, you can't take it when you die
Just wanna make enough to take care who I leave behind
So I grind
Insomniac Cay, I stay up all night
No peace, when these thoughts race through my mind
Can't sleep when I'm thinking bout this life
Can't close my eyes, even if I tried
Insomniac Cay, I stay up all night
No peace, when these thoughts race through my mind
Can't sleep when I'm thinking bout this life
Can't close my eyes, even if I tried
