King Frustration

What we do today matters tomorrow I heard mama sing with so much sorrow She taught me to lead, but never follow Never follow, lead When she lost her third son to violence She walked crooked from the people's silence She woke up each day on a lonely island A lonely island breeze I barely get sleep, I barely get sleep I barely get sleep no more I barely get sleep, I barely get sleep I barely get sleep No more, no more, no more No more, no more, no more The trigger man grew ten extra fingers When Superman left the burning building 'Cause he could not relate to all the killings Of black on black children Unspeakable acts, ungodly things The stress poured inside her nerves and veins She smoked everything to kill her pain Smoked everything for the pain I barely get sleep, I barely get sleep I barely get sleep no more I barely get sleep, I barely get sleep I barely get sleep No more, no more, no more No more, no more, no more Oh When the fire keeps on burning When the fire keeps on burning She says Lord what the hell has happened to me? Give me your tired and poor Lord what the hell has happened to me? It's coming down on me I barely get sleep, I barely get sleep I barely get sleep no more I barely get sleep, I barely get sleep I barely get sleep No more, no more, no more No more, no more, no more
