Counting Sheep (V2) [2018 Export.WAV] Songtext
von Flume

Yeah, chip shoulder with your chest out, yeah
Your tall tales are gettin′ fleshed out
All that huffin' and puffin′, your breath out, yeah
Lame-ass niggas gettin' pressed now, yeah (God damn)
Did your Googles, bring your best out
Now you think you could walk in they shoes, do your best now, yeah
Seen that shit on TV, did it when you countin' sheep
But it′s all the same thing, right? Yeah

Once upon a while and a few lies ago
Some misdemeanor niggas went where the time was gold
They say, "Hang dry, hand wash if you can, nigga"
"Hang dry, hand wash if you," come on
Did this and that a few lines ago
But wе believed that shit a fеw lies ago
Well, z-z-z-z-z-z, z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z
Catch ya Z′s, nigga


Please, nigga, uh-uh
You countin' sheep, nigga, uh
Not even in your dreams, nigga
In the land of revolution, IMAX 3D′d
Niggas think they can act and get handed freebies
Please, G, behind the screen is easy
But when the issues get pressed, don't try and sign off treaties
You said, "Two sheep, three sheep, four sheep, five
Black sheep, white sheep, gold sheep, why?"

Nigga, fuck that, no goin′ back shit, we live
End of the tunnel, screamin', "Let there be light"
And you think it′s all games, but they was like knee-high
And you doin' all this shit for a reply
You think it's built in a day, they six deep by feet, uh
Stack that they leave us, past three feet high
Plug one, plug two, pause, this can′t be right
And did you realize, boy, get that reply

Yeah, once upon a while and a few lies ago
Some misdemeanor niggas went where the time was gold
They say, "Hang dry, hand wash if you can, nigga"
"Hang dry, hand wash if you," come on
Did this and that a few lines ago
But we believed that shit a few lies ago
Well, z-z-z-z-z-z, z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z
Catch ya Z′s, nigga
