Nightfall Lyrics

[Verse 1 - Akrobatik] Let me tell you about the nightfall (nightfall) There's certain spots you don't want to be and your ride might stall (what?, might stall, what?) 'Cause livin life out here is wicked To roam the sidewalks that's littered with dirty diapers and losin scratch tickets When the sun go down, the rules change Sometimes it seems the ghetto nightime is like a shootin range Here's how it runs, guns pop like blackheads (what?) Targets be the prostitutes, gang foes and crackheads Rides runnin red lights, with no headlights in dead night So nigga get your head right You can't walk a block without catchin a dirty look And dirty kids is cuttin dirty pages out of dirty books And dirty crooks, they control the streets Because they sold the streets, now they roll in fleets I got no crime record but it's like I live in a prison cell 'Cause when the night falls, shit is like a livin hell, nightfall [Chorus - Akrobatik] Let me tell you about the nightfall (nightfall) - 2X When night falls, your whole state of mind can change When night falls, the most normal shit be lookin strange Honor roll students, they be actin deranged When night falls, when night falls, come on Let me tell you about the nightfall (nightfall) - 2X [Verse 2 - Akrobatik] A word to the wise, when you roam the streets that's desolate I'm stressin shit, you gots to watch who you messin with (yes) And if you in the rhyme cyphers under street lights Rock the beat right or be prepared for a street fight Each block is cluttered with street pharmacies Starvin kids and shitty diapers, home alone, they don't know where their mommas be It's reminiscent of Somalia Instead of malnutrition though, nigga's what they callin ya It's kind of like we're waitin for a savior While the cages that we're dwellin in, are turned to graveyards And what they're writin on our headstone Is that when night falls, the ghetto be turnin into the dead zone, nightfall [Chorus - Akrobatik] - w/ ad libs Let me tell you about the nightfall (nightfall) - 2X When night falls, your whole state of mind can change When night falls, the most normal shit be lookin strange Honor roll students, they be actin deranged When night falls, when night falls, come on Let me tell you about the nightfall (nightfall) - 2X [Verse 3 - Akrobatik] Sometimes I wonder if there's niggaz far away in the stars Lookin down at us, laughin at the way that we are Or is they cryin?? 'Cause unecessarily we be dyin Nowadays you get killed over which shorty you eyin The moonlight effects my people kind of like the werewolf Now every nigga think he John Wilkes Booth But despite the decreased visibility I maintain the ability to possess mental agility So I ain't on the block lookin for Jake I'm at the crib tryin to get my girl to stop watchin "Ricki Lake" "As The World Turns," one fact burns Every 24 hours, night fall returns (what?), nightfall [Chorus - Akrobatik] Let me tell you about the nightfall (nightfall) - 2X When night falls, we parlayin under street lights When night falls, the knuckleheads be lookin for the fights In the ghetto it seems, shit never goes right When night falls, when night falls When night falls, your whole state of mind can change When night fallsm the most normal shit be lookin strange Honor roll students, they be actin deranged When night falls, when night falls, what? Let me tell you about the nightfall Let me tell you about the nightfall (nightfall)Akrobatik - Nightfall - http://motolyrics.com/akrobatik/nightfall-lyrics.html
