City Nights歌词

[00:22.82]Big city cruising downtown 11pm
[00:24.88]hit up a slice of pizza as I passed the Coliseum
[00:27.50]Cops looking shady so pretend I didn’t see them
[00:30.13]plus they looking like they bout to stop a brother in his B.M.
[00:32.95]Strolling past a couple, publicly display affection
[00:35.57]approach me on the subtle now they asking for directions
[00:38.38]thanked me so politely then they went along they merry
[00:41.13]now I’m feeling legendary as I passed the library
[00:43.70]I’m in the mood to party to participate in fun
[00:46.44]I wanna call somebody but my minutes straight done
[00:49.03]reach inside my pocket only find a stick of gum
[00:51.82]and begging for some money in the corner is a bum
[00:54.59]had to shrug my shoulders cos I guess I’m running empty
[00:57.40]admiring apartments can’t imagine what the rent be
[00:59.88]now I pass a bar,
[01:01.34]plus a young couple playing music in their car,
[01:03.97]my crib ain’t too far
[01:05.57]See some troublemakers ain’t about me getting caught up
[01:08.14]stepped inside a store so I could get some bottled water
[01:10.76]paid with my card plus I bought a pack of Marlborough
[01:13.20]carried on home as I’m walking past a Starbucks
[01:16.07]music on my CD so I’m walking and I’m vibin’
[01:19.45]soon to be drowned by an Ambulance siren
[01:21.51]Shorty just passed and she looking mad pretty
[01:24.20]and this is what you get taking a walk around the city,

[01:46.26]My E.T.A. is just approximately five minutes
[01:51.39]working on an album so I’m thinking on some lyrics
[01:53.95]is there any point? I got no instrument to write em’
[01:56.84]reaching for a smoke, I got no instrument to light em’
[01:59.39]damn! As I’m getting older I’m forgetting
[02:02.17]cutting through the park and so I’m watching where I’m stepping
[02:05.29]heading home to finish up the food that I was prepping
[02:07.40]then to chill and watch a movie probably pull out Lethal Weapon
[02:10.16]on the other hand I’m thinking bout hitting a party
[02:12.79]and talking to some women after downing a Bacardi
[02:15.45]hopefully I’ll score and wont be sleeping on a solo
[02:18.21]with a last night yes and tomorrow morning no-no
[02:20.84]just a couple minutes, I’ll be home with a decision
[02:23.84]street lights out so I’m straining on my vision
[02:26.33]pocket vibrating so my telephone is ringing
[02:28.83]Mikey hit me up and said “I’m local,
[02:30.73]what you drinking?”
[02:31.73]I told him I was out and bout to meet him round the corner
[02:34.56]I need to use your phone I got this chick I need to call her
[02:37.13]made a U-Turn as I head to meet my cousin
[02:39.82]buying up the beverages they cheaper by the dozen
[02:42.50]get spruced up then we hit the night lights
