8 Minutes To Sunrise
8 minutes to sunrise Oh baby now, what are we gonna do? I don't know Pressure is mounting Oh baby now, how we gonna get through? I don't know
Can't go left, uh uh, can't go right, uh uh Don't know, how we made it through the night Come on, come on, come on 7 minutes to sunrise Oh baby now, what are we gonna do? Do it, do it
It was once said by Black Thought that 'Things Fall Apart' Knew I shouldn't have been messing with dude's girl from start But I pimp from the heart, the art of it made it interesting Plus me and sister blend before we got intimate
Friend or no friend, her man caught wind This chick is paying me, it'll either cost me or cost him Told her she shoulda lost him, when? A while ago 'Cause dude'll drink a pile of Mo' and defile her yo
I ain't here to start on this *** for me to wreck his broad You could tell what I thought of this *** Nickname was Smoke, don't know if that was 'cause of cigarettes Or what, or guns he tote, he called shots on the deck
So I wasn't trying to call his bluff, by his persona You could see, he think he tough If that wasn't enough, old girl had a son This is Wild like the West, I'm like Jesse on the run, uh
6 minutes to sunrise Oh baby now, what are we gonna do? I don't know Pressure is mounting Oh baby now, how we gon' get through? Yo, I don't know
Can't go left and, uh uh, can't go right and, uh uh Don't know, how we made it through the night, yo, we got 5 minutes to sunrise Oh baby now, what are we gonna do?
I understand that time is runnin' out, I'm thinkin' of town skippin' Got a Chevy but the alternator be trippin' I'm hittin' rum straight, thinkin' of a route to truncate The streets is watchin', out is one way, I put myself in his Nike's
His position is, 'Aight man, somebody bonin' my lady' Probably snap like Rodman My plan was to meet at this bar called the Tiki, when? 'Round four, when she was comin', she would beep me
I sat deep in the corner, drinkin' zombies, becomin' one by now Wonderin' if my style would support her and her child Out the corner of my eye saw this stud I recognized, who? One of Smoke's guys, to stay out of sight I tried
Told Jill Scott to meet, we coulda picked a better spot On some 'Nobody's supposed to be here' *** like Deborah Cox Looked at my watch, *** I don't even got a watch Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com Felt for my glock, damn it I don't even got a glock, yo
4 minutes to sunrise Oh baby now, what are we gonna do? I don't know Pressure is mounting Oh baby now, how we gon' get through? I don't know
Can't go left and, uh uh, can't go right and, uh uh Don't know how we made it through the night, come on, come on 3 minutes to sunrise Oh baby now, what are we gonna do? Do it, do it
Pressure puh-pressure what? The pressure's cookin' It ain't good lookin', like a black promoter I'm talkin', bookin' Not that I'm spooked of dude, I could whup him But he was on the horn informin' the rest of them hoodlums, aight
Usually I wouldn't fight over a woman, old girl had a sunshine Was messed up, on Smoke's payroll was one time My pager went off, it read one line: 'Come get me, from Halsted†I'm thinkin' this is monkey bar ***
Went to the phone quick, called her, what happened? Her line was busy, situation number nine, got my mind dizzy Wondering if this plan was designed to get me I've been drinkin' too strong to be thinkin' too long
Like 40 goin' North I'm doin 50, headed for the spot Askin' God to be with me, and lately She has been actin' shifty, but what? But then it hit me, hit me, it hit me, hit me, it hit me, it hit me
2 minutes to sunrise Oh baby now, what are we gonna do? I don't know Pressure is mounting Oh baby now, how we gonna get through? Yo, I said I don't know
Can't go left and, uh uh, can't go right and nope Don't know how we made it through the night, yo, we got 1 minute to sunrise Oh baby now, what are we gonna do? One, one, one, ha
1 minute, we got, we got one, one 1 minute, ah ***, one, one, we got 1 minute, what we got girl? one, one 1 minute, baby, Common Sense on the run now, now
1 minute, Common Sense on the run, one 1 minute, Jill Scott on the run, Jill Scott on the run Common Sense on the run, Com Sense on the run Jill Scott on the run, Jill Scott on the run
They got us on the run like, they got us on the run They got us on the, yo, they got us on the run Uh, yo, they got us on the run They got us on the, yo, they got us on the run and we out
