Don’t sleep — nah, don’t blink on me,

[Hook] Don’t sleep — nah, don’t blink on me, I been low-key, but the fire still lit in me. Whole city stiff, move funny — peep the scene, I took my time, now it’s knockin’ — don’t miss me. Don’t sleep — I been loadin’ heat, Soft soul, hard grind, real DC. I ain’t rush nothin’, I ain’t skip no beat, When I step back out? Don’t sleep on me. [Verse 1 – Trap Flow, DC Talk] Sat back, peeped plays, let the hype go past, Seen bambas chase clout, burn quick, don’t last. They loud for the ’Gram, I’m buildin’ with class, Stayed ten toes while the pressure got fast. I ain’t salty, I ain’t pressed, that ain’t me, Just sharpened my tools, kept vision HD. While they lunchin’ online tryna look OD, I was cookin’ in silence — whole recipe. Bench seat gave me sight, yeah, peeped that clear, Saw who solid, saw who disappear. Now I glide through the mix with no fear, ’Cause I already fell — came back prepared. [Pre-Hook – Rock Build] Guitar hum low, feel the tension rise, 808 heartbeat, truth in my eyes. I don’t bark loud — my calm reply Hit harder than noise and televised lies. [Hook] Don’t sleep — nah, don’t blink on me, I been low-key, but the fire still lit in me. Whole city stiff, move funny — peep the scene, I took my time, now it’s knockin’ — don’t miss me. Don’t sleep — I been loadin’ heat, Soft soul, hard grind, real DC. I ain’t rush nothin’, I ain’t skip no beat, When I step back out? Don’t sleep on me. [Verse 2 – Soul + Grown DC Swagger] OG told me, “Time gon’ show,” Who just talk and who really grow. Patience payin’ bills, that’s how it go, Silence sharpen steel — facts, no show. I still showed love, played my role, Held the label down, kept my soul whole. They thought quiet meant I lost control — Nah, I was heatin’ up, ready to roll. Passion tucked, discipline tight, Late nights turned to daylight. I don’t knock doors — I arrive just right, Like destiny synced with the red-line light. [Bridge – Soul/Rock Crossover] If the room felt cold, I was the flame, If the crowd went numb, I changed the frame. If you thought I dipped from the game — That’s on you… don’t sleep. (guitar solo rides, congas creep in) [Final Hook – Anthem Lift] Don’t sleep — nah, don’t blink on me, I been quiet, but the fire still lit in me. I stayed patient, built properly, Now I’m wide awake — don’t miss me. Don’t sleep — I been loadin’ heat, Trap, rock, soul — pure DC. I ain’t rush nothin’, I ain’t skip no beat, When I step back out? Don’t sleep on me. [Outro – Low DDAY Tone] “Yeah… I wasn’t gone. I was locked in. Don’t sleep.”
