'Cause I'm already dreaming, already dreaming Oh, I don't need no sleep I don't need no sleep And we come alive, we run the night with strangers 'Cause in the end, we're all familiar faces We're young and wild, enjoy the ride, we made it Say you'll never

Pretty little face, get a little high Mother of the Earth, she made you and I And there goes, a black girl, lost A young wild beautiful love child You like them thug style link rockin, then mink coppin Hit you on the sink a hundred dollar drink poppin
