Knight Fall Lyrics

    Chorus:
    When night falls over the city
    Gotta be ready cause it feels like
    Somebody's comin to get me

    Verse 1:
    It's ten o'clock and darkness covers my area
    And every night it's gettin a little bit more scarier
    The eleven o'clock monday news is mo like a horror flick
    People sure have changed, it seems that they enjoying this
    Death and destruction
    With no instruction
    Leads to malfunction, disruption, and full consumption
    How can i escape this mind state that i'm in?
    I been tryin, but it seems that i can't win
    I've fallen and i can't get up
    And the homies that was my homies went and set me up
    Somebody tried to tell me that it was all in my brain
    I tried to act a hard male runnin cocaine
    But it still don't ease my pain
    Am i insane or a victim of my own fears?
    What's goin on we supposed to be happy here
    God don't make no junk that's what i been told
    But it seems to me that god ain't in control

    Chorus:
    When night falls over the city (when the night falls)
    Gotta be ready cause it feels like (feels like somebody)
    Somebody's comin to get me (when the night falls)

    When night falls over the city (when the night falls, ooh-yeah)
    I gotta be ready cause it feels like
    Somebody's comin to get me (comin to get me)

    Verse 2:
    I need assistance, but all i get is resistance
    I try to be persistent, but life can be gone in an instant
    I'm scared to turn around cause i know somebody's watching
    I can feel they evil stares, and i know that they plottin on me
    And scheamin, i wish i was dreamin
    If my mind was free i could chase away the demons
    But in ain't, and they still can't understand that
    All i ever wanted in life was a chance to be a man
    The same old pattern has got me goin crazy, loc
    Descendent of a king, but i feel like a royal joke
    Is this a sequel?
    Are all men created equal?
    The lies you told to the people back then now they is lethal
    And now we swimmin in a pool like shark bait (like shark bait!)
    Feel my pulse race, abnormal heart rate (heart rate!)
    And now i'm startin to feel like i might come up missin
    I tried to tell somebody but nobody wouldn't listen

    Chorus:
    When night falls (when the night falls) over the city (over the city)
    Gotta be ready cause it feels like
    Somebody's comin to get me (comin to get me)

    When night falls (when the night falls, yeah) over the city
    I gotta be ready cause it feels like (i wanna be)
    Somebody's comin to get me (comin)

    Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
    Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-oooohhhh

    Verse 3:
    I'm feelin oppressed, this stifle
    My life is trifle
    No family, friends, or relations, so i sleep with my rifle
    And my pistol, i'm seein stars and hearin whistles
    One shot from a little junky ass twenty-two will tear a whole in your gristle
    Wont stay to state side
    Cause the unpure fall off the fall by the way side
    So stay your ass on the plate side
    There's nothin to fear but the fear itself
    And if you control the fear then the fear is wealth
    Do i have power or do i have no self control?
    These long, lonely nights have made my heart grow cold
    Hear my pleads, can somebody help a g
    And, will we fight this battle for eternity
    I blame you cause my mind is not my own
    So, don't blame me if i trespass in yo zone
    I'm your creation
    The product of a twisted nation
    Guess this is what you're facin (facin!)

    Chorus:
    When night falls (when the sun goes down) over the city (over the city)
    Gotta be ready cause it feels like
    Somebody's comin to get me (somebody help me!)

    When night falls (when the night falls) over the city (over the city)
    Gotta be ready cause it feels like (over the city, over the city, over the city!)
    Somebody's comin to get me

    When night falls (when the night falls) over the city
    Gotta be ready cause it feels like
    Somebody's comin to get me

    When night falls (when the night falls) over the city (over!)
    Gotta be ready cause it feels like
    Somebody's comin to get me

    When night falls over the city
    I gotta be ready cause it feels like
    Somebody's comin to get me (comin to get me, get me, get me, get me, get me)
    Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
    Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-oooohhhh
