The sounds of Brooklyn drill have traveled across America, and the world, for that matter. Plenty of artists deserve credit for bringing the sound to the masses, and an artist like Sleepy Hallow is helping carry it forward. On Friday, the rising Brooklyn artist delivered his debut album, Still Sleepy? which offers an all-encompassing glimpse into his talents. The gravelly, hard-hitting drill bars are alive and well but when he leans closer to the R&B influences, he strikes gold.
Such is the case on track 12, “Murda She Wrote.” Gentle guitar strings strum with heavenly vocals carrying through the song as Sleepy Hallow offers an honest glimpse into the trauma he’s experienced. “It’s like I never get no peace/ This anxiety makes it hard for me to speak,” he raps on the record.
Sleepy Hallow – Murda She Wrote (prod. SephGotTheWaves, Geo Vocals & Great John)
[Intro]
Look, oh
I want, and she want, but we can’t, huh (Look, huh)
[Chorus]
I want, huh, and she want, huh
But we can’t, huh, ’cause we know it was murder she wrote (Look)
She sang a song to your soul
That chopper blow like a nose, I told ’em, “Leave me alone”
[Post-Chorus]
Huh, I told ’em, “Leave me alone” (Look, uh)
It was murder she wrote
[Verse 1]
I put my heart inside an envelope and shipped it off, uh (Sing a song to your soul)
Bitch, I’m cookin’, you can’t get the sauce
Sleepy pull up drippin’, bet them bitches try and lick it off, uh
Her body different, I might give it all
Perky got me trippin’, I could ball, but not on this court, huh
I was down, they picked me up just like a missed call
She said, “I got problems,” she gon’ fix all, huh
You don’t hold me down, I’ma get lost (Look, uh)
[Chorus]
I want, huh, and she want, huh
But we can’t, huh, ’cause we know it was murder she wrote (Look)
She sang a song to your soul
That chopper blow like a nose, I told ’em, “Leave me alone”
[Post-Chorus]
Huh, I told ’em, “Leave me alone”
It was murder she wrote
Sing a song to your soul (Look, uh)
[Verse 2]
It’s like I never get no peace, huh
This anxiety make it hard for me to speak, huh
Fightin’ demons, I know I barely even sleep, huh
Your dawgs pussy, they ain’t barkin’ up no trees, huh
Nobody understand, so I just talk to me, uh
I got some problems, girl, I’m sorry if I leave, uh
It ain’t my fault, I told you shit was hard for me, huh
Turn to the streets ’cause I ain’t grow up properly, huh
Can’t deal with love, I swear that shit just not for me, nah
I fuck with her, I let her roll my broccoli, huh
Half the people who say they love me lie to me, huh
Part of the reason I wear my heart up on my sleeve, huh (Look, huh)
[Chorus]
I want, huh, and she want, huh
But we can’t, huh, ’cause we know it was murder she wrote (Look)
She sang a song to your soul
That chopper blow like a nose, I told ’em, “Leave me alone”
[Post-Chorus]
Huh, I told ’em, “Leave me alone”
It was murder she wrote
Sing a song to your soul
