foxy brown - now i lay me down to sleep lyrics
hey…yo gav i’m wide awoke, fam. fox..
[verse 1]
am i the most prolific
can it be that i’m one of the most gifted
i swear at times i’m so twisted
outta all the occupations in the world i chose this sh-t
momma, tell me, do i have what it takes to be
irreplacably the best this place will see
and yes i’m hated
and will i go down in history as one of the most underestimated
lord, speak to me, are these streets the key?
we don’t snitch, we been sworn to secrecy
i never claimed i shot guys
i just came in the game to get my name and rep fox 5
i’m so close yet so far but so far
no stars flow hard like i do
so many years you been lied to
i now provide you with the closest thing to rap’s bible
[chorus]
(now i lay me down to sleep) oh lord
(i pray the lord my soul 2 keep)
yes, so may years you been lied to
i now provide you with the closest thng to rap’s bible
(if i should die before i awake) oh lord
(i pray the lord my soul to take)
fox…i gotta get my rhyme on
and everything i speak my mind on be word to big
[verse 2]
the industry lately’s been terrible
i swear the timing’s impeccable
labels is bringin’ in thin revenue
i don’t mean to toot my own h-rn bt d-mn, i’m incredible
see i gots to be…possibly
if not the best, yeah, f-ck it the best mc
and i feel they testin’ me now
i don’t need kelly or beyonce to prove i’m destiny’s child
thin i’m losin’ y’all, confusin’ y’all
when i spit all i hear is “ooh’s” and “aww’s”
and i don’t need doubt
see it’s just me, red, gav, curtains, mello & young mouse
a small portion of a dyin’ breed
it’s fox-5 slash i-n-e but still
so many years you been lied to
i now provide you with the closest thing to rap’s bible
[chorus]
(now i lay me down to sleep) oh lord
(i pray the lord my soul to keep)
yes, so may years you been lied to
i now provide you with the closest thing to rap’s bible
(if i should die before i awake) oh god
(i pray the lord my soul to take)
fox…i gotta get my rhyme on
and everything i speak my mind on be word to pac
[verse 3]
see, it’s the streets that inspire me
this is my proof of what fire be
my songs will please the inquiry
my versatile personal flows written and sh-ttin’, it’s like diaries
never tired my job, i confide in god
and almost effortless simply defy the odds
with the best the placin’
will i be able to succeed and lyrically exceed my expectations
if i gain some fame, i’ll remain the same
it’s so i’ll how one b-tch changed the game
and i’mma do it a lot faster
i probly have to die before they realize i was the best rapper
young fox, i’m a spittin’ beast
this rap game’s a puzzle, i’m the missin’ piece
but…so many years you been lied to
i now provide you with the closest thing to rap’s bible
[chorus]
(now i lay me down to sleep) oh lord
(i pray the lord my soul to keep)
yes, so may years you been lied to
i now provide you with the closest thing to rap’s bible
(if i should die before i awake)oh god
(i pray the lord my soul to take)
fox…i gotta get my rhyme on
and everything i speak my mind on be word to pac
lord, this fever is so crazy, man
i mean…everything i speak my mind on be word to pac, yes
oh god
