Never see the ground, I'm on this pitch black, yeah
Chasing dreams, ain't nobody got my back, no
Eyes heavy, but ain't no time to slack
All alone in the dark, feeling that precious stack
In a world where the real get overlooked
I've been writing in these pages, every night I shook, uh
Up at night, body slipping on me
Dreams on my shoulder, I ain't letting them be
Riding hard, but you'll get to see
While I'm sleeping, I'm recovering
Who I'm meant to be
Cameras flashing, but they don't see the struggle, nah
Late night, early morning, I'm the muscle, yeah
Heart beating still, I hustle
In the shadows, I bail, staying out of trouble, uh
Too many nights, street lights and cold nights
They see the shine, but they don't see the fight, uh
Up at night, body slipping on me
Dreams on my shoulder, I ain't letting them be
Riding hard, but you'll get to see
While I'm sleeping, I'm recovering
Who I'm meant to be
All the nights I spend alone
Working hard until the dawn
Keep on pushing, carry on
One day they'll see what I've done
Up at night, body slipping on me
Dreams on my shoulder, I ain't letting them be
Riding hard, but you'll get to see
While I'm sleeping, who I'm meant to be
