Macka B - Can't Sleep

What's going on?
You nuh hear some people said them sell them soul to Satan
What's going on it's like a new fashion
They don't know, they don't know
Father, mother, forgive them for they know not what they do
It's been happening for a while in different musical styles
It's gone wild, yo, yo

Them can't sleep at night
Because them sell them soul fi rock 'n roll
Them can't sleep at night and can't still
Some of them them haffi take pill, them can't chill
Them can't sleep at night
Because them sell them soul for silver and gold
Them can't sleep at night and can't still
Some of them them haffi take pill

Some of them a puppet like a tool inna hand
Controlled by a different man
Them have them inna them pocket and them haffi play along
Carrying out their master's plan
At first them a love it, like they don't give a damn
Cah them have their big house and mansion
Their career start to rocket and them a make the millions
Getting the most push and promotion
Some even admit it, them even put it inna song
How them sell them soul to Satan
But when them want fi stop it, the damage already done
And they've messed up a generation
Some of them kick the bucket, suspicious situation
When them realise something was wrong
To late fi seh damn it, what have I done
Them tied to the transaction, yeah man

Them can't sleep at night
Because them sell them soul fi rock 'n roll
Them can't sleep at night and can't still
Some of them them haffi take pill, them can't chill
Them can't sleep at night
Because them sell them soul for silver and gold
Them can't sleep at night and can't still
Some of them them haffi take pill

A lot of certain kinda symbols inna videos
Who's controlling the videos nobody knows
It's not the puppet them, them only a pose
Acting only like gangsters and little hoes
Videos full of symbols and sign
Everything meticulously designed
Every frame is carefully refined
Targeting your subconscious mind
You've been watching it time after time
You never notice, stop, rewind It's not that you're blind
You're just too busy watching the women dem wine

Can't sleep at night
Because them sell them soul fi rock 'n roll
Them can't sleep at night and can't still
Some of them them haffi take pill, them can't chill
Them can't sleep at night
Because them sell them soul for silver and gold
Them can't sleep at night and can't still
Some of them them haffi take pill

Them have the money and the fame and the private plane
But them realise they have to play the game
Drugs fi shoot inna them vein, things to mess up their brain
And their lives it will never be the same
And later on they want to change and rearrange
People make it seem like their going insane
They've only got themselves to blame
'Cause they wanted the fame
But it come with a price, so they can't complain, so

Them can't sleep at night
Because them sell them soul fi rock 'n roll
Them can't sleep at night and can't still
Some of them them haffi take pill, them can't chill
Them can't sleep at night
Because them sell them soul for silver and gold
Them can't sleep at night and can't still
Some of them them haffi take pill

That one ya name think first and be careful what you ask fah
Cah what you ask fah could turn out a disaster
Just remember there's only one Master
Nuh follow Satan, that a imposter
At first a pure fun and the laughter
But that nuh last it get serious after
Only when them have a son or a daughter
Them a start talk like a imam or pastor

Them can't sleep at night
Because them sell them soul fi rock 'n roll
Them can't sleep at night and can't still
Some of them them haffi take pill, them can't chill
Them can't sleep at night
Because them sell them soul for silver and gold
Them can't sleep at night and can't still
Some of them them haffi take pill

And sometimes it's not even the symbols themselves
'Cause some are taken from us
But it's how and by whom they are being used and for what purpose
