The Night Scene |
The night time is an ill time cause nuff crime |
happens that never gets aired on the prime |
TV stations, public relations |
gives the okay for what gets aired in the nation |
You got the whole world lookin at I Love Lucy |
Talented bitches on the corner sellin pussy |
A variety’ll give your friend for a 10=spot. |
. |
Christians doin rimshots! |
Do more heads than barbershops will |
Open their legs to the public for a meal |
Damn it’s a shame, the shit looks unreal |
College graduates sometime kneel |
Check out the crack scene over there |
Those two motherfuckers gonna make about a million this year |
Sell to their friends for a Benz |
Kill their race for a taste |
for what they call or see as being the good life |
Gold nuggets, lots of ducats |
Beeper number 1−800-Asshole |
Sellin stone so we can see your bones |
cause most crackheads don’t have fat legs |
Skull all soft, it can crack like eggs |
You fiend for the flavor, steal for the hit |
Grandma’s walkin home, so you bust her shit |
Send her to the hospital — for twenty bucks |
Beam for a half an hour — that’s fucked |
Other (?) your high, for a few stay low |
Ten minutes later, you need some blow |
So you’ll eventually croak — maybe by a stroke |
You don’t want the good life — no you want coke |
Now come the robbers, they just steal |
They move like cats — some on crack |
They’ll vic anything up to Jeeps |
These motherfuckers play for keeps |
They’ll do anything that’s on their mind |
They come nine deep, plus pack nines |
They don’t care — won’t shed no tears |
Don’t try to appeal for pity cause it’s silly |
They wear Polo coats, baseball caps |
The elderly is the main course and the snack |
These young kids that leave their cribs |
hang on the streets, then these squids |
slide up on the scene with a certain lean |
and then slide out but they’re countin your green |
And now you’re vexed and you want to redeem |
but it’s a different world with different rules: |
The night scene |
Yo baby check this out |
Times is gettin kinda hard, youknowhatI’msayin? |
Yo bitch, you gonna have to get me some serious money |
out this motherfucker, youknowhatI’msayin? |
You better go out there and, |
find some friends for five dollars or some shit |
Cause y’know, if I don’t get my money |
you know what’s gonna happen right? |
Somebody gonna get hurt out this motherfucker |
You know that, you know that |
The night time is a different time to flow |
You gotta know the rules or they’ll let you know |
Your heart can’t take the pressure, of the scene |
Periphreal vision and decisions must be keen |
Cause this is a place that’s far from clean |
Apocalypse Now — but later on you say it’s a dream |
But it’s not a dream, it’s reality |
Stand on the corner and you’re a goner |
Go home and chill under your mom’s wing |
I will sing, hopefully bring |
a new alternative to make some green |
But stay home — not the night scene — come on! |
WHAT? |
Yo where the motherfuckin money at huh? |
Nah I don’t wanna hear nuttin about no college and tuition shit |
I just want my motherfuckin money — NOW BITCH! |
So let’s do this alright? |
You ain’t holdin out tonight |
cause I’ll fly that motherfuckin head |
right about now, okay? |
