Sleepy Hallow Make You

Sleepy Hallow arrived at the emergence of Brooklyn drill alongside Sheff G. Since then, the two have continued to carve out their own lane while keeping a firm grip on New York’s drill scene. While Sheff was the first to break through, and has since released several solid bodies of work, fans have been anticipating Sleepy Hallow’s major debut. On Friday, he finally unveiled Still Sleep? which finds Sleepy delivering his most polished body of work to date.

With 14 tracks in total, including two bonus singles, Sleepy Hallow delivers honest lyricism through his baritone sing-rap delivery. On “Make You (Snake Proof),” Sleepy Hallow reflects on trust and friendship over upbeat production with a touch of Latin influence. Though it is a catchy record, Sleepy Hallow’s lyrics reflect a more harrowing reality.

Lyrics

[Intro]
Yo, you started? Alright
How the pain go, woah-oh
How the pain go, woah-oh
How the pain go, woah-oh
Great John on the beat, by the way (Look)

[Chorus]
Make the money, never let the money make you, huh
Real nigga never fake you
Cut the grass, know you gotta stay snake-proof
All these drugs got me feeling unstable, uh
How the pain go, woah-oh (Yeah-yeah, yeah, yeah)
How the pain go, woah-oh (Yeah-yeah, yeah, yeah)

[Verse]
I be feeling lonely in a crowd
If I hold you up, you better hold that shit down
Sometimes I cry, no one’s around
But laugh and joke when guns around
I know I be flexing like I never had nothin’
But, nigga, we ain’t never had nothin’
I ran me up a pack, used to shop at PacSun
Now we make it rain, we don’t ever see the sun
I had to leave her, I know she prolly the one, huh
What is that? A treat? Look like she nothin’
And I don’t do the fake, you a bait
They gon’ call you everything but great
Ocean on my neck and on my wrist I got a lake
Brand new AP, I just took it to switch the face
Two gun charges, I’m just praying I beat the case
I paid my lawyer, I’m just waiting on court day, so

[Chorus]
Make the money, never let the money make you, huh
Real nigga never fake you
Cut the grass, know you gotta stay snake-proof
All these drugs got me feeling unstable, uh
How the pain go, woah-oh (Yeah-yeah, yeah, yeah)
How the pain go, woah-oh (Yeah-yeah, yeah, yeah)

[Outro]
Yeah-yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah-yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah-yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah-yeah, yeah, yeah
