Intro (whisper / ad-lib)
Yeah… can’t sleep, nah
Shadows movin’ like they know me

Hook
I can’t sleep at night, faces on my ceiling (on my ceiling)
Replayin’ every loss, every time my heart stop feelin’
Whispers in the dark, got me steady kneelin’
Money in my pocket, but it don’t stop the bleedin’
I can’t sleep at night, faces on my ceiling (on my ceiling)
Mama prayin’ loud, but I’m still hearin’ demons
Lights flash back, like the past keep revealin’
Countin’ all these ghosts while my soul steady healin’
Verse 1
Phone buzzin’, missed calls from the ones I loved the most
Voicemails soundin’ hollow, like the city turned to ghost
Took a flight for the paper, but I’m runnin’ from a ghost
Of memories in bullet holes, every corner got a past
Seen my brothers fall—seen ’em fade in the rain
Tattoos of trauma, inked up in my brain
Told myself I changed, but the nights feel the same
Poppin’ pills, tryna quiet, but the voices call my name
Streetlights flicker, and the ceiling turn to screens
Faces of the fam that never left those scenes
I bought a crib, but the silence loud between
Hear the echoes of the tape that playin’ all my sins
Pre-Hook
Pray to God for rest, but the pillow keep betrayin’
Told myself I’m blessed, still the memories keep playin’
Countin’ stars from the suite, but my heart keep fray’n
Tryna find the peace that these streets ain’t sayin’
Hook
I can’t sleep at night, faces on my ceiling (on my ceiling)
Replayin’ every loss, every time my heart stop feelin’
Whispers in the dark, got me steady kneelin’
Money in my pocket, but it don’t stop the bleedin’
I can’t sleep at night, faces on my ceiling (on my ceiling)
Mama prayin’ loud, but I’m still hearin’ demons
Lights flash back, like the past keep revealin’
Countin’ all these ghosts while my soul steady healin’
Verse 2
Late night confessions with a bottle and a pen
Tryna write forgiveness, but the ink reminds me when
Corner where we used to laugh now got sirens and dents
Every face that left a mark turned my night to evidence
I see him in the window, I see her on the porch
I see the homie diggin’ deep tryna make it through the court
Said I’d be the difference, but I’m searchin’ for a torch
To light the hallways of my mind where the pain stays locked in force
Diamonds on my neck, but the weight still heavy
Fame bring attention, still the nights get messy
I whisper to the sky, “Lord, hold this levy”
But the flood keep comin’, just to test me steady
Bridge (soft, melodic)
If I sleep, will I wake there with ’em?
If I dream, will I hear the sirens again?
I been prayin’ for peace but these streets got a pen
Write my name in the wind, every loss, every friend
Tryna bury the past but the shadows never end
Tryna heal a soul that the night gon’ contend
Hook (variation)
I can’t sleep at night, faces on my ceiling (on my ceiling)
Remindin’ me of days that I ain’t do right,still pain feelin’
Porque music
See you when I see you
