Tonight (feat. J Live, M3 & Erica Dee)

Whoo!
The hawk is out!
Brick out here, you know I'm sayin'?
Yo, you better bundle up

We livin' in a cold world, even in the summer time
And I ain't talking about the Fahrenheit, naw!
I'm talking how the life ain't fair and the height of the fare
Keep hiking here and there, from there to here
Back then, I had a grin from ear to ear
Now the corn price triple per ear, triple your fear
Can't afford to get my head gassed up
Let alone my whip
I need a loan just to go 'round, trip

And there is a war going on and nobody is safe
'Cause the thieves in the night still hitting your safe
With the cameras on blast, see this look on my face?
For security, I'm feelin' like my freedom's replaced
While your cut runneth over, all I want is a taste
I ain't trying to stay sober 'cause things are so sobering
God knows how what makes rain and but brings
Fuck your harebrained schemes and things, man

Tonight, you are stars shining brighter than before
Tomorrow, here come trouble knocking at your door

We living in a cold world, especially in the summer time
No, I ain't talking about the Celsius, nuh-uh
I'm talking how the cells keep swellin' with felons
And said felons that didn't use they melons
And suffer for what they sellin'
And the cellphones keep excelling
They even got Excel, Word, QuickTime
You can hear a quick rhyme, and
YouTube Scorsese's whole cutting room floor
Check the score and the scores more

Things like this, you couldn't do even one score or one day before
Not to mention all the pussy galore
So with the future so bright, you gotta wear shades
To contrast the shadows, prepare for battle
That takes place daily in your hearts and minds
Distractions keep you outflanked
Don't let your dickhead have your brain outranked
You picked a gunfight, bring more than your shame
'Cause ain't nobody shooting blanks

Tonight, you are stars shining brighter than before
Tomorrow, here come trouble knocking at your door
Tonight, you are stars shining brighter than before
Tomorrow, here come trouble knocking at your door

We living in a cold world, like The Day After Tomorrow
The day before yesterday, we could have borrowed time
And been fine with some peace of mind
But now the last minutes are spent with such sorrow
And various theorists claim it's the Age of Aquarius
Now hear this, this era might be the scariest
We near this brink of being extinct, and yet still pushing on so precarious
The mystery god, he probably watching people like reality TV

That's so, so hilarious
So much drama and the folks claimin' a moral high-ground
Get found livin' foul and nefarious
I'm still tryin' to ride the road less traveled
Without catching a flat from all of that gravel
And Nu-Marks the spot to connect the dots
With kick, snares and high hats
I lick shots, it's like that

Tonight, you are stars shining brighter than before
Tomorrow, here come trouble knocking at your door
Tonight, you are stars shining brighter than before
Tomorrow, here come trouble knocking at your door

Yes y'all
J-Live
Uncle Nu
Once again, you know I'm sayin'?
NY to wherever you at
LA to wherever you at

When we used to have a good time
When we used to doin' a lil color
When we used to doin' our city, yo
When it was good out here
Eric dame B was here
Rakim was here

Lil Kim was here
Big Kane was here
Sleek Rick was here
T.I was here
If you understood, put your, put your, put your
