Night life, ready to spit
Evidence tag cross the planet
Step it up this year, the time’s right
Sleep all day to wake up for night life
Ready to spit when it drops, gonna hit
We step it up, no doubt the time’s right
Sleep all day to wake up for night life

Start every verse with something to quote
“The devil you know, is better than the Devil you don’t”
Last year a test, true colors where shown
Kings remained in chess on the board and life in thrones

Music catch the force of my mic
That’s why at night I be out postin’ up my own snipes
For years I sat back, played the role, what for?
This here disc, hear us raw, can’t fake it anymore

Check it out, you now witness the scenes
Second release, Expansion Team
Shit thumps, shine bright headlights, Xenon
The like laser beams drive fast things and tee green

Night life, ready to spit
Evidence tag cross the planet
Step it up this year, the time’s right
Sleep all day to wake up for night life
Ready to spit when it drops, gonna hit
We step it up, no doubt the time’s right
Sleep all day to wake up for night life

You know these nights ain’t gettin’ any longer
Put your best out and bail
You never know, you might get stronger
I stood back a bit, take punchlines out raps been more legitimate

Solidify our place in the game, pleasure with pain
Tropical flow, see sun but feel rain
It’s easy to secrete yourself up in the mix
That’s why it’s good to get out at night and holler at chicks

I take it back before studio racks
Before I understood the concept of seperatin’ tracks, before
Around the time my life when I swore
That the mic was a device not to be taken light

Night life, ready to spit
Evidence tag cross the planet
Step it up this year, the time’s right
Sleep all day to wake up for night life
Ready to spit when it drops, gonna hit
We step it up, no doubt the time’s right
Sleep all day to wake up for night life

Night life, graffiti artists get armed
Cans get shook, the walls get bombed
This is the time when shadow rocks get thrown
At your tinted car windows sound off the alarm

This is the time you execute your plan
While other people sleep, jewels get ran
In get away vans exit off ramps
Smaller operations are shops bigger one camps
Rock knots in pocket pants

Got the advance and back for my back end in hands
And things ain’t always what they seem from a glance
But up close shit’ll change your whole perspective
Shadows close in, you realize you ain’t protected

Night life, ready to spit
Evidence tag cross the planet
Step it up this year, the time’s right
Sleep all day to wake up for night life
Ready to spit when it drops, gonna hit
We step it up, no doubt the time’s right
Sleep all day to wake up for night life
