No Sleep, No Justice No Peace


No sleep, no peace for the night

My gosh, my gosh, my gosh

No sleep, no seeds for the child

All my life I’ve just wanted to grow and to bloom like the flowers do

All my time I’ve just wanted to fall and to get back up hopelessly in love with you

No sleep, no peace, drugs to ease the pain

I need my medicine cause the weed ain’t working ain’t down with liquor and honey cocaine

No Justice No Peace

We are all the victims to disease

no justice no peace

 

 

Ease the pain, ease the pain, simple and plain

No sleep, no peace for tonight, what’s weed and wine when shit ain’t right

It’s hard to explain stay the night, don’t wanna fuss, don’t wanna fight

Need you to be the one, say it’s alright

It’s all good, will I find the place to be at peace for the night

In school, with the damn tuition so high

And I feel like what for cause I’m just so high

I want to feel like I’m something and at the same time nothing

Nothing at all, when you feel you have no one to call

No Justice No Peace

We are all the victims to disease

no justice no peace

 

Stay with me, coffee and infinite rain

Need the one to motivate me through it all, all through this pain

No sleep, no peace for tonight

No sleeping for me.6x  For me. Tonight. 2x . It’s alright.2x

I been a little less creative. I have my road blocked. so I put that mother out of drive and hit my parking brake just in time.  Ask myself the question how much longer can you take everything that makes you who you are today. It doesn’t mean you’re characters bad.  Can you get through this week and not be had? The devil a busy being. I’m too busy brooding, I have had no visions for positivity

lately, visions on TV seen Chelsea lately. Phases of being faded.

No sleep. no peace for tonight. Magic jack got the mix all wrong not right. Put your past visions behind and claim a better beginning, to find a peaceful ending for tonight.

 

No Justice No Peace

We are all the victims to disease

no justice no peace
