It's hard to sleep these days
The sounds of all the screams
Keep me awake
Love is gone
Love is gone
We bend until we break
Stand by and watch us all
Go up in flames
Love is gone
Love is gone
*** the world is in flames
We worry 'bout materials
And the simplest things
When cops are killing people
Then they can't take the blame
They get acquitted
Then you wonder why
All the people rage stupid
We all keep praying for peace
Praying for progress
If you live in the hills
Or you stay in the projects
So folks won't listen if they think
What I'm saying is conscious
They'd rather hear me turning up
On some simpler topics
Yeah so what's my place
Am I out of line
For speaking what's going on
And saying what's on my mind
This *** is *** up
Plus it's happening all the time
My job as a rapper
Is to entertain
We tryna shine
I'm not no politician
But they listen
Somebody informal
All the kids gotta find out
Whats really important
I got a platform and a voice
And a stage to perform on
Music could be a good escape
But outside it's been storming
It's hard to sleep these days
The sounds of all the screams
Keep me awake
Love is gone
Love is gone
We bend until we break
Stand by and watch us all
Go up in flames
Love is gone
Love is gone
As I sit in the studio
Guess the thinking this
If the statement's too crazy
Then should I finish this
Or if my image is pretty
Don't wanna blemish this
Or ever split up my fans
Reduce my relevance
Pay attention and understand
What the premise is
Everything not gravy
We can't pretend it is
So I salute YG
*** the president
Cause he a ***
Racist supported
By white supremacists
*** Donald
Go back to just running businesses
We all wishing somehow
We could've prevented this
Until we all love each other
Nobody benefits
Minorities and feminists trans
Gays and immigrants
The government mix politics
And religiousness
So a man's body's more free
Than a woman's is
The anger is real
The riots are limitless
And nothing's gonna change
Til we killing off
All this ignorance yeah
It's hard to sleep these days
The sounds of all the screams
Keep me awake
Love is gone
Love is gone
We bend until we break
Stand by and watch us all
Go up in flames
Love is gone
Love is gone
Monsters
We've turned into monsters
How did we get
The way we are
How did we get
The way we are
How did we get
The way we are
Our conscience we lost it
How did we get
The way we are
How did we get
The way we are
How did we get
The way we are
We are we are
How did we get
The way we are
We are we are
How did we get
The way we are
We are we are
How did we get
The way we are
We are we are
How did we get
The way we are
