Story Behind The Song

People believe success is just handed to them without sacrifice. This song debunks that myth, informing listeners that the most successful people often sacrifice sleep to manifest their dreams and visions.

Song Description

At this point in my life, I was working really hard going to school and working full time. I was frustrated that my buzz didn't reflect my talent. I felt as though I was creating a new sound and it was being overlooked and under-appreciated. I lost countless hours of sleep working late shifts and completing schoolwork. Yet, I was still empowered by my efforts and the fact that to be successful you have to sacrifice sleep.

Lyrics

Hook:
No Sleep Gang
Naw y'all can't hang
No Sleep Gang
Michael Jordan Michael Jackson
You should peep game
You crazy think I work dis hard ta stay da same
You crazy think I work dis hard ta stay da same

Verse 1:
Holy Ghost
Lawd help em dey think it's a joke

Deese Billionaires ain't special
Dey hate da thought of broke

Go watch Shark Tank
This rule da highest ranked

Let's jus say pussy ain't ta blame til you nap wit da cat

Racks on racks on racks
You think it grow on trees
Pay me ta faded grindin on NYE
Keep Dreamin fa pockets on dockers
You fuckin slacker
Hustlin ass backwards
Half effort. Madd bitchin
Fabricatin bad biness
Half effort madd bitchin
No sleep gang new NASA mission
Runnin wit owls like I'm signed ta Drizzy

G I Neva made a bucket list..
Cuz I want it all right now
Somebody Get deese lil mfs baby wipes right now

Cuz dey jus kiddin
Ain't Neva been bout it
Ain't Neva been wit it
Ima make u learn da hard way
So

Fa playin me
y'all Shall forever remain nameless..
Ms ghetto Cashier at targét

God keep givin me visions
So ima plot ta get til got em

And who gon stop me huh
Why Duke so cocky huh
Cuz it's 3AM
I'm in my zone insomniaahh
I'm on my toes so every moment's perfect timing huhhh
I'm in my zone Push yo back album
Labels Linin up

Verse 2:
Breakin da stereotype
Since apparently
Everybody think
A young Gary King
Jus posed ta be
A Chicago wanna be
sound bite

No ma'am No sir

Lemme gon set da record str8
I lost count of deese sleepless nights
Earnin my stripes like frosted flakes
Pourin out my soul like a chocolate shake
Women fillin up my shows like I'm chocolate drake
Pay deese pussies no mind let em ovulate
The game Runnin low on coffin space
Cuz y'all Cornyer than gifts on Father's Day

Topic of discussin that's my Parkin space

I cook it I cook it
Dey come back dey come back
Like good dick she feignin
But I neva text back

Dey watchin Dey want it
So come book da freshman
Like school bout ta start back

Had Amex since 18
My fico so Wavvy my nigga
My city can't charge dat

Matrimony wit plan A
And Plan B caught da bouquet
Got Red eyes fa dem blue faces
My crew chowin down on soufflé
Yo style like grandmas fruitcake

You swear it's good
but who vouchin

I kno it's all of yo niggaz
Onda bandwagon
Broke wit no talent

And yo Gurl prolly gon side wit me
She fed up cuz u outchea wil'n

And mines so down wit da campaign
All er bad tings ride wit no sleep gang
Up Vampin no fangs
Off white I keep stains
