How about we go and save the night Let's save the night And it's on tonight I can see you want it and so do I A little trouble in the city Trouble in my home She told me love don't live here anymore I wanna run to the light It's too dark in this part of

And I feel alive. Now all the barlights are blinking in time To Mexican music, it's taunting the pavement Never in all of my life Have I seen eyes as empty as these streets of my city On a Saturday night, All the green of your eyes says "Go, leave it all

How much longer are you gonna pay For yesterday Sins of the father One more cross to bear Go on lose it in the city I am the crazy man Who lives inside your head But I think I'm breaking through the wall You are the innocent

Com, commotion Git, git, git, gone Traffic in the city turns my head around No, no, no, no, no Backed up on the freeway, I'm backed up in the church Everywhere you look there's a frown, frown People keep a-talkin', they don't say a word Jaw, jaw, jaw,

Oh my God, oh my God If I die, I'm a legend When I pull up on a nigga Tell that nigga, "Back, back" I'm too good with these words Watch a nigga backtrack It's too late for my city I'm the youngest nigga reppin' They can't live this long
