    Lyrics:
    Don't kill your brother
    Learn to love each other
    Don't get mad
    'Cause it ain't that bad
    Look at who you are
    You've come too far
    It's in your hands
    Just be a man
    Get the jelly out your spine
    Cobwebs out of your mind
    #WuTangClan #ICantGoToSleep #OfficialVideo

    Ghost can do EVERYTHING. Emotion, wordplay, crazy slang, vivid imagery, one of the best storytellers, gangsta shit, deep relatable life shit, unique flows / delivery, vocab, rhyme schemes ... WTF? 🔥

    The fact that they didn’t just sample Issac Hayes’s song, but they invited him to record his vocals for this track is showing us RZA’s perfectionism, and Respect to the Original Artists! ✊
    The Song is fire with a deep message! R.I.P Issac Hayes, R.I.P O.D.B
    Wu-Tang Forever! 👐🏿👐🏾👐🏽👐🏼👐🏻👐

      rooniegyrl If he rhymes to the point that his words crack, I do not know. It's the first time I heard him do it. His part in "impossible" is quite intense, but never to the point of a "controlled" breaking out-of-character (cracked words)

    Back in the days at the age of 8, i couldn't quite understand the appeal of this song. It was on the B-side of the Careful (Click Click) single and i was totally confused because i never heard anything like this in the world of Rap before. Now it's my favorite off of The W. Another thing just hit me. I love how they put two completely contrasting songs on the CD single. One song is about gun violence and the other is about PTSD because of gun violence. I absolutely love how they show both sides of the spectrum. Violence in rap might be a great selling point but the negative affects of said violence should be discussed, too. They did in a genius way and couldn't have picked a better sample than Isaac Haye's Walk On By. That song is so grandios, epic sounding and emotional. That song really sounds like it's been ingrained in Wu's musical DNA long before I Can't Go To Sleep was even a thought.

    Track actually gets better. People used to make fun of me for bumping this, admittedly it was the end of the Wu era. Looking back it was the end of the golden era of 90s hip hop.
