Nas ends verse one by saying he never sleeps (apparently it's the cousin of death) and starts verse two by saying he's having dreams that he's a gangster. So, these are daydreams or waking hallucinations or something?

You're not wrong, though this feels kind of emotionally spot-on even if it's kind of nonsense in its literal form.
To contribute (badly), I've always thought whoever wrote "Bette Davis Eyes" never had a solid grip on what made Bette Davis' eyes so appealing. Any easy way to check this is against how she was cast in her prime - the woman sketched out in the song doesn't really show any resemblance to the characters she usually played.

13336768, Paper Thin - MC Lyte says she doesn’t touch until the 3rd or 4th date

Maybe she will kiss on the 5th or 6th
Then turns right around and says a date without a kiss is so incomplete.
but you can play with her feet and suck her big toe or the one in the middle.
It’s simple, unlike a riddle.
... nah, Actually it’s mad mixed signals.
