Lose Sleep REMI (Ft. Jordan Rakei)

[Intro: Remi Kolawole]
Yes-yes, today, shake-shake, hey-hey
Come on, yeah-yeah, come on

[Verse 1: Remi Kolawole]
I'm just here to push limits
Shit-scared of heights
But I stay on top of the game just to say I did it
Show young black kids that you can live it
Free your mind with it, be proud of your pigment
I wasn't for a while
Too many times vilified for being a shade different
Started hating myself and all dark skin
Playing myself, Charlie Sheen, Two and a Half Men
Remember after school, train station
Busta "Break Ya Neck" blasting from iPod Mini
Thankful class finished
So I could go and play Majora's Mask with my little brother
When cops come up and start asking me
"Where you from? What you up to? Oh, from Moorabbin?
That's half an hour from here, not from 'round here
Boy, what you selling? Where's your product?"
I hadn't even touched drugs at this point, except maybe a joint
But my skin fitted the description
So 'oink oink' had to be deployed
Next day at school, told my friends
The facts of how they treated the boy
They said I'm being crazy
'Cause to them, black voice is white noise
That's the world that we're living in
