UTD, Ces , DCQ, Yasiin Bey - Hardcore Nights lyrics

Man, I am ready are y'all ready to get down?
Boy, I cannot wait to blow
My horn in here tonight

Ha yeah
Shit is real (Hardcore nights in the city)
Word up, don't be out here slippin'
You might not get up
(Hardcore nights in the city) times is rough
And if it ain't rough it ain't right
(Hardcore nights in the city)
So let's it get set tight
(Everybody's creepy) like this

First and foremost, from the East Coast
We got it in a smash
So it's no need to boast
Bogart your block with the Brakalak bop
I'll have your whole mass yellin' out
(Don't stop)
This is the way it is and how it must get
(done)
To make the engines run like a fat trust fund
And send you all off to
The record store strollin'
For the raw boom that
Have your speakers swollen
Hardcore nights in the city
Nobody's (sleepy) , everybody's (creepy)
Stay on the top since I can't be slouchin'
Too many heads crawlin', too many creeps
(crouchin') and when I slide by, I glide by
Easy, pa, this ain't no drive-by
So relax the lines in your face
Ease your hands off your waist
Unless you gonna pull out
Somethin' you can taste
Cause straight up, you gon' be eatin' it
Whatever assault you form, I'm defeatin' it
Abusin', confusin' and beatin' it
Son, I know about these streets and shit
Don't test me i don't let time stress me
Remain on the even keel
I'm in the realm of the real
Times across the land is
Gettin' Steelier than Dan
And I be damned if I let
Any man disturb the program
Punks go on with they curb curb all sincere
When their straight line's the
Crookest way anywhere
So don't be swayed by these fools
Live your life right, baby pa
You know the rules
Never ever show disrespect to a gee
If it ain't in your heart
Don't do it for free
Never sit nowhere where you can't see
And don't go nowhere where you ain't gotta be
And that's from Mos to you, on the real
Be alert out here, before your cap get peeled
And for all y'all herbs that be scopin'
One eye rest while the other one's wide open

Hardcore nights in the city
Nobody's sleepy, everybody's creepy
(Word up, ain't nobody sleepin')
Hardcore nights in the city
Nobody's sleepy, everybody's creepy
(Better get ruff and ready)

Hardcore nights in the city
I'm not feelin' sleepy
I'm feelin' kinda creepy
Straight from Medina, yo, my shit is meaner
Than any new gee that you
Heard or even seen ah
It's 2 AM, I'm hoppin' on the D
Nobody else on the platform except me
Some kids comin' down the stairs
Actin iller, but I ain't scared
I'm prepared
Kids can get stupid if they want
I roll up the bomb and serve them they fronts
Don't mistake me for a vic
Just cause I'm a female i don't got a pump
I don't wear the Lee nails
So 'press on' and you get
Pushed on the tracks this ain't romper room
You better learn how to act
Before I take my trey-eight to your door
So "Yo chill, everything cool
Sweetheart" - yeah, i thought so
Times is too critical and shit is too real
Before long I have to peel with my steel
To y'all muthafuckin' herbs that be trippin'
Y'all better watch your muthafuckin' back
Cause I ain't slippin'

(Word up) hardcore nights in the city
Nobody's sleepy, everybody's creepy
(Shit is too critical
It's too late in the day
To be playin' around)
Hardcore nights in the city
Nobody's sleepy, everybody's creepy
(Word up, aight?)

Well I'm cruisin' in the
Path down Atlantic Ave
Brothers wanna scope but they
Don't know the half
A punk step up, I'ma have to blow the staff
And show him I'm the master of
The science and the math
It's so many thugs creepin' on the daily
(Yo, we caught just his head
Up the block) Word really?
I just maintain and stay cool like the breeze
Fuckin' thieves
Now we're approachin' Eastern Parkway
Some brothers on the corner just
Lookin' like they wanna
Reach for they gats and twist they caps back
Yeah, I pack my steels too
But I ain't livin' like that
(Beep beep) goes my pager, yo
Let's stop at this bodega
So I make this call and
Get somethin' to drink
I hop out the ride, go step inside
I see some heads to my left
With they eyes all wide
I pay it no mind cause I see it all the time
(Don't be fooled by the shades)
Don't mean I'm blind
I got a water and a stoge
A quarter for the phone
Yeah, it's my d callin' to
Let me know she's home
I tell her that I love her and
I sign off with a kiss i hear a
(tires screeching, gunshots) hey yo
What the fuck is this?
The guns rode by and at the blink of an eye
They was dead where they stand
What a fuckin' way to die
Damn, I guess that's how shit be
If I was standin' over there
It coulda been me
Either dead or badly fuckin' hurt
That's why I stay on a-fuckin' lert
Out here in the streets

Hardcore nights in the city
Nobody's sleepy, everybody's creepy

Word up a very, very critical time
Don't be out here slippin'
You might not get up word up
Don't be sleepin' you might not get up
