Night Vision (Feat. Isaac Hayes) |
When the sun goes down and the moon comes up |
You can see a lot of things if you look deep enough |
It’s all around |
The city skyline, in the nighttime, be the right time, to ball out |
(Yeah) Who’s the real pimp, gangster hustler, you call out |
Is it him, is it him or is it, Dukes over there? |
Real recognizes real, so yo, no one cares |
The chief executive mack, in so deep you can’t imagine |
I’ve seen the beatdowns, the gunfights, plus the paddywagon |
See daddy with his pants saggin, pushin whips that’s too fly |
Switchin up to a suit and tie, ladies say he’s too cute to lie |
(Forget about it) And none of my girls, wanna, talk to you |
Plus, none of my boys, gotta, talk to you |
Cause when you see me, they’ll be somewhere in the cut |
And you can’t be me, so nip that weak talk in the butt |
The party’s crowded, and everyone, is showin love |
Whassup, what’s the deal, how’s things holdin up? |
(Whassup young blood?) |
The smooth dude, that moves through, with the utmost precision |
Truly a wiseguy, seein life with my night vision |
See that young blood, comin down the street |
Don’t be hypnotized by the stride of his feet. |
Pickpockets. |
streetwalkers. |
number runners. |
hustlers |
Lots of ladies, wanna, check me out |
And lots of haters, wanna, X me out |
I got more style than Gucci, Louis or Prada |
Drop more jewels on you, than your uncle or father |
Once this envious kid, was temptin me kid |
To stoop down to his level and cold empty his wig |
He was mad cause his girl wanted up in my world (hahahaha) |
I looked the other way, and she was still, stuck in my world |
Aiyyo; |
baby wants to run with me, come with me, have fun with me |
I be the man when I’m dipped, or in a t-shirt, and dungarees |
I overheard her man, that was screamin in her ear |
While I nodded to my peeps, who was schemin in the rear |
If he’s gon' flip, he’s gonna, find out quick |
That I stroll with a click, and we roll mad thick |
He shook my hand and laughed it off, that was his best decision |
We keep it tight aight? |
Hangin out, with that night vision |
I bust into this night club |
I can see you perpetraters |
Passin out your BID’ness cards |
Wearin your knockoff gators |
Pimps. |
heartbreakers. |
dumb-ass Johns. |
You got to make a decision, to go witcha instincts |
And rely on your night vision |
