Lay down your head You're not alone Anywhere you go, I follow We are the children of the sun That's all you need to know Lay down your head You're not alone Anywhere you go, I follow We are the children of the sun That's all you need to know Bitch I'm a moon walker like Michael, sky walk all over my rivals Both hands on that Bible, bitch I'm next in line for that title When they got had nothing to do, what was I do, who was in the studio with Taio We climbing high, we on the Kilimanjaro, and they're panicking They don't really know what's happening Never gotten clothes off a mannequin, we don't want no comparison I overdose on extravagance, we went for gold and got platinum I told my bro' to get an ambulance 'cause I caught a cold and went spazz on them How can home be where the heart is, When your shadow even fucking leaves you when you are in darkness Still get stopped by Sergeant Pepper, looking for that ziggy stardust After a lifetime of regret, I'm just looking for some answers Lay down your head You're not alone Anywhere you go, I follow We are the children of the sun That's all you need to know Lay down your head You're not alone Anywhere you go, I follow We are the children of the sun That's all you need to know I had opportunity in my window, wise words in my kindle Disturbing London, we here to ball, your team stuck in limbo Like Freddie, Bruno and Ringo, I saw the signs and symbols With that top down on my yellow ride, let bitches hate on my bimbo I'm yards away from that milestone, international dial tone Put me through amaro when you Instagram with your iPhone From yellow bricks to them brown stones, I ring bells, I'm household Look at all the rappers we outsold so keep your mouth closed, yeah How did I become so jaded, maybe all these insecurities are making me feel naked Feel like Harry did in Vegas, had my privacy invaded That's a liberty a pity, the epitome of what fame is Priest up in my parish, keep on putting me in their prayers Swear I'd never sell my soul, my pride and dignity is too major, yeah We rarely ever get those second chances, after a lifetime of regret I'm just looking for some answers, yeah Lay down your head You're not alone Anywhere you go, I follow We are the children of the sun That's all you need to know Lay down your head You're not alone Anywhere you go, I follow We are the children of the sun That's all you need to know Looking for a light that can outshine the sun I know one day our time will come Bought a camera to capture these cinematic nights Still don't satisfy my appetite for this lavish life Tell me, doctor, am I fit for all these flashing lights? Like Michael said, it doesn't matter if you're black or white We got the colors of the sun to descend above us All we have is each other in case you happen to wonder, let's go Lay down your head You're not alone Anywhere you go, I follow We are the children of the sun That's all you need to know Lay down your head You're not alone Anywhere you go, I follow We are the children of the sun That's all you need to know
