While You Sleep

This track comes from pure ambition — the boss-mode mindset that builds empires before breakfast. It tackles The anthem for the midnight grinders. While the world sleeps, the builders are building. The competitive advantage of outworking everyone when the lights go out.. The lyrics get specific — "While you're sleeping, I'm compiling, while you're dreaming, I'm designing" — because personal tracks on Majik's are personal for real, not performatively. The hip-hop production matches the energy of the confession. It hits intense and driven, in that order. Every personal track in the catalogue comes from a real moment, a real feeling, a real person. This one is no exception.

[verse 1] Midnight on the dot, the neighborhood is dark But my screen's the only lighthouse and my mind's the only spark While you're sleeping, I'm compiling, while you're dreaming, I'm designing While you're hitting snooze tomorrow, I'll be three steps past the lining Of silver, I'm going gold, going platinum with the work Navy taught me night watch, so the midnight doesn't hurt It feeds me, it fuels me, it's the time I come alive When the noise shuts up and the only voice is mine [chorus] While you sleep, I build While you sleep, I grind until the cup is filled While you sleep, I'm laying brick on brick While you sleep, I'm turning nothing into it The thing they said was crazy, the thing they said was too much While you sleep, I'm building with an unreasonable touch Sunrise gonna find me finished, started, and begun again While you sleep [verse 2] Five weeks for a platform, you think that's nine-to-five? That's midnight-to-morning with the will to stay alive Coffee number four, the code is flowing like the tide Folly Beach is sleeping but A-A-Ron's open wide Awake, alert, ascending while the competition rests I don't blame them for sleeping, I just use it to my best Advantage, every quiet hour is an hour that they gave To me, and I'll take it, every minute that they wave Goodnight to is a minute I say good morning, let's go [chorus] While you sleep, I build While you sleep, I grind until the cup is filled While you sleep, I'm laying brick on brick While you sleep, I'm turning nothing into it [bridge] This isn't bragging, this is just the truth Some people rest and some people use The midnight hours like a second day A bonus round where the driven play And I've been playing since the Navy said Sleep is a luxury, discipline instead So while you sleep, don't worry, get your rest I'll be here when you wake, further from where you left [verse 3] Midnight motivation, that's the energy I'm on The world gets quiet and the unicorn gets strong Do more with less, including less sleep While you sleep, I sow, and in the morning, reap [outro] While you sleep I build the dream While you sleep Goodnight I've got work to do
