Sleep When I'm Gone Lyrics

[feat. Cee Lo Green, Game & Busta Rhymes]

[Intro: DJ Khaled]
'Bout to change the game
DJ Khaled
We The Best Forever
Cash Money Young Money
I'm for real about this shit
Let's go

[Chorus: Cee-Lo Green]
I've gotten my time cause my time is my money
The sun goes down but I won't stop for nothing
Why close my eyes, I'd rather sleep when I'm gone
Sleep when I'm gone
Sleep when I'm gone
Looking at the clock like yeah yeah
Why close my eyes, I'd rather sleep when I'm gone
Sleep when I'm gone
Sleep when I'm gone

[Verse 1: Game]
Yeah they say sleep is the cousin of death
Guess we related cause I'm the most slept on and the most hated
Hated, hated by niggas with no hustle
Staring at me in the club like I won't bust you in the face with the spades
Life is a card game and I'm playng spades
Gambling with short change, fucking basketball wives while you at away games
Really fucking basketball wives, ain't gotta say names
Whole body tatted like a New York City freight train
Niggas get the bark and put a bullet in a Great Dane
Try me end up like... team full of animals like I coached the heat
Four floored mansion close to the beach
6 cork of wives, it's how I'm supposed to eat
In Miami, rolling up kush on both decks
Flagging down the waitress, waving my Rolex

[Chorus: Cee-Lo Green]
I've gotten my time cause my time is my money
The sun goes down but I won't stop for nothing
Why close my eyes, I'd rather sleep when I'm gone
Sleep when I'm gone
Sleep when I'm gone
Looking at the clock like yeah yeah
Naps to my track yeah yeah
Why close my eyes, I'd rather sleep when I'm gone
Sleep when I'm gone
Sleep when I'm gone

[Verse 2: Busta Rhymes]
Yo I done survived the test of time doing this shit so long
And only rest to rise again homie I sleep when I'm gone
Look, a legend while I'm prime and so current and they hate this
The streets'll classify me another level of greatness
I don't fight for crowns at all, I let wack niggas bitch
And let them flip while they debate on who the king of shit listen
See I don't waste time debatin' over them things
Because I'm God mother fucker God create kings
I'm hearing that a lot of niggas mad through the grapevine
Piano signing beautiful and sad at the same time
The feeling that a funeral so study you niggas
Khaled provide the theme music while I bury you niggas
See now there's no escape in the god, you'd better find a getaway
Before I start wiling like Haitians and Jamaicans when it's labour day
Khaled everytime you know we gotta make 'em love it
And realise that everything is hotter when we touch it

[Chorus: Cee-Lo Green]
I've gotten my time cause my time is my money
The sun goes down but I won't stop for nothing
Why close my eyes, I'd rather sleep when I'm gone
Sleep when I'm gone
Sleep when I'm gone
Looking at the clock like yeah yeah
Naps to my track yeah yeah
Why close my eyes, I'd rather sleep when I'm gone
Sleep when I'm gone
Sleep when I'm gone

[Verse 3: Game]
Ayo Khaled let this shit breathe
Spoiled little rich nigga, that's me
Smoke coming out the sumbel blowing on hashish
Can't stop now cause I'm in too deep
1.5 ride every 2 weeks
Niggas wanna kill me, let the shells fall out
Life is short in place, my kids gon' ball out
Their kids gon' ball out
20 years from now pulling cars out
You gon' think cocaine getting hogged out
Ecs getting shipped in
Crystal Meth getting dipped in
All cause you let a nigga slip in
Aftermath 05, G-Unit 06, everything else with... watch the dough flip
Sitting on the couch smoking up memories
Pouring Jack Daniels, toast to my enemies
Fuck beef nigga, I ain't got the energy
Take the last shot to the dome, John Kennedy

[Chorus: Cee-Lo Green]
I've gotten my time cause my time is my money
The sun goes down but I won't stop for nothing
Why close my eyes, I'd rather sleep when I'm gone
Sleep when I'm gone
Sleep when I'm gone
Looking at the clock like yeah yeah
Naps to my track yeah yeah
Why close my eyes, I'd rather sleep when I'm gone
Sleep when I'm gone
Sleep when I'm gone
