Sleep when we die


Featuring Keith Richards

We kicking down the door if ever they don't listen
We don't give a f--- guess we on that medicine
I'm on that Marley Kush and I ain't talking cannabis
I'm on that crazy bush yea something like the president

Where am I where am I don't have a clue
I'm tripping on stumbling all over you
Sorry just sick a belt I wasn't tryin' to Copperfield
Somebody take the wheel I'm not drunk I'm on the thrill

[Hook]
We got our heads in the sky
Love got me high
Let's live behind
Sleep when we die
Run from the sunlight
Into the wild side
Let's live tonight
Sleep when we die
We got our heads in the sky
Love got behind
Let's live behind
Sleep when we die

Found me with the crew those minutes in the outlaws
We used to breaking rules and runnin from them cop cars
You know them boys in blue they could be such a kill joy
You see us on the news but we just tryin' to chill boy

Where am I where am I don't have a clue
I'm tripping on stumbling all over you
Sorry but girl you're hot ok I'm in the touch out
Somebody take the wheel I'm not drunk I'm on the thrill

[Hook x3]
We got our heads in the sky
Love got me high
Let's live behind
Sleep when we die
Run from the sunlight
Into the wild side
Let's live tonight
Sleep when we die
We got our heads in the sky
Love got behind
Let's live behind
Sleep when we die

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
