[Intro]
Uh
Uh
BIA, BIA
Uh, uh

[Verse 1]
I been on my job for three-sixty-five, 9 to 9
Traded in my time for peace of mind (Peace of mind)
Leachers on my line want a piece of mine
Seek and find, cheating on my man before I cheat the grind
Beat a b!tch ass to keep my piece of pie

She gon’ cry, they gon’ try deny, but we seen it live (Seen it live)
Who’s popping? I’ve seen nada (Who?)
Hit grabba, that’s all I need to sleep proper

[Chorus]
Sleep with one eye open, life keeps me awake (Keeps me awake)
And I know that I’m here for something, I can’t take no breaks
Who said life would be easy? (Who said? Who said?)
S*it’ll never be easy (Who? Who?)
I gotta sleep with one eye open, life keeps me awake

[Verse 2]
Who said this s*it would be simple
When odds are against you tryna reach your potential? (True)
It had me caught in a limbo, at the same time
Suit up ’cause it’s game time, you should check my hang time
Who’s that calling on my phone? (Brrt)
Might be the collector, had to leave that s*it alone
System put in place, I tryna get me out my zone
Can’t stop a real pop diva, the real rap reaper

[Chorus]
Sleep with one eye open, life keeps me awake (Life keeps me awake)
And I know that I’m here for something, I can’t take no breaks (I can’t take, I can’t take, I can’t take no—)
Who said life would be easy? (Uh, uh)

S*it’ll never be easy (Who said? Now who said?)
I gotta sleep with one eye open, life keeps me awake

[Outro]
They still throwing threes where I’m from (Oh)
Now they tryna feed me the crumbs (Oh)
They must have amnesia or something (Oh)
They gon’ see about it when I’m done (They gon’ see)
They still throwing threes where I’m from (Oh)
Now they tryna feed me the crumbs (Oh)
They must have amnesia or something (Oh)
They gon’ see about it when I’m done
