Restless
David And The Giants Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

MF
Every beat bumping
The speech tougher
I'm Definitely trouble

Deceit ducker
Number one hustler
I freely seat these suckers

Bars
Jibber jab status
You ain't really with the shuffle
Hard
Pull the plug on em
Burst yo bubble
Hah
La di dadi dah
Fill the duffle
Ocean of thought to a puddle
Bitch

I'm Restless
Leave em all breathless
You know who the best is

Say my name
Know my game

I'm the exception
Treat my moments precious
Never waste a second

cin't no pain
cin't no gain

I feel like the freshest
Make out sessions
She wanna caress this

That's your dame
cin't no thang

Most people lack direction
It's like they need directions

Stay in yo lane
cscertain

Bitch I'm major money stretching

Major money stretching
Testing testing
Sikk stay steady flexing flexing flexing
Illustrious and dressed for success
So persuasive
High key shitting on the game
Paper pressing
Extra extra
Dollar sign destined
Erking every jerk
Curb your quirky greedy gurgling
c service so legit
cnd the product so clean
Bet your bitch
Wipe me down
I place my nuts on her chin

Indy Heat Records
Bet you lost your train of thought
Ugh
Wompa fruit bitch
Bet I bust up in her box
Ooohh
You know who it is
It's the man up in that box
Steady mixing up a hit
No cap
Got diamonds in my stock
MF

Better bro your britches man
She blow me; ain't no kisses man
Bologna what you spewing
Come to think
You sound confused
If I go out my way for a bitch I bet it sells




cnd I don't know nobody else whose shitting holy grails
MF

Here's the lyrics:
Most everyone is asleep now
With dreams well on the way
Why is it that tonight keeps me on guard
For in times past, I've slept like a baby
Dreaming too of the morrow's day
(Tomorrow's day)
But now I'm kept from slumber
By something inside my heart

And it's calling me with urgency
To watch as well as pray
And as long as night will tarry
With attention I must wait
For in an hour not known to any
Will come the break of day
And the restlessness of the night
Will be done away

There's a growing tension inside of me
To wake the neighborhood
Though many will scorn the hour being so late
Still I know I must take the risk
Of being misunderstood
For the darkness of night holds evil
Only seen when you're awake

And it calls to me in urgency
To sound alarm to stand
To say that God is calling us
To awaken while we can
For in an hour not known to no one
Night will be destroyed by day
And the evil deeds of the night
Will be done away

Hey, restless, can you sleep tonight
Something's going wrong, got to make it right
Wake up now before you sleep the night away

And it calls to me in urgency
To sound alarm to stand
To say that God is calling us
To awaken while we can
For in an hour not known to no one
Night will be destroyed by day
And the evil deeds of the night
Will be done away

Hey, restless, can you sleep tonight
Something's going wrong, got to make it right
Wake up now before you sleep the night away

Hey, restless, can you sleep tonight
Something's going wrong, got to make it right
Wake up now before you sleep the night away

Hey, restless, can you sleep tonight
Something's going wrong, got to make it right
Wake up now before you sleep the night away.

@kyliereece8619

I grew up listening to all my dad’s music and this was one of his favorites which soon became one of my favorites, here I am 20 years old now and I still love it! I have become more aware of how deep and true the lyrics are as I have gotten older, I am so happy I have gotten to know this band as a child and still enjoy the music now!

@user-ox9gn1qb5c

I never thought I would hear this track again. I was 11 when I last heard it. It's as awesome as ever especially now that I have gotten older and to a better understanding of what the song is trying to tell us. Thanks you very much for posting and God bless you!!!!

@Real3rdTimothy

This is my favorite DATG's Songs ever. This would truly describe the mood, music, and feeling I have when I am awaken by something stirring in my spirit.
