When the sun goes down, the hustlers gon' come up Watch your step or they'll steal your whole summer Don't go around there wearing the wrong color Cause if you do, you might just get run up (run up) You might just get run up (run up) They'll steal your whole summer (run up) You might just get run up (run up) You might just get run up (run up) Watch your back Get to running in your den This is no game, no shame, no brains, no fame safe for the hung They be out here wilin' violent fucking on y'all for the fun And these streets go silent all of a sudden nobody seen men And your body goes numb, 3, 2, 1 They been out here now looking for your chains to grab You resist and you find that your brains detached They got a 100 motherfuckers all aimin' at ya With a claim to capture, all maniacs on these streets Now hop off the boat in Pogo looking like me And the wools ain't never passed up on the sheep so When the sun goes down, the hustlers gon' come up Watch your step or they'll steal your whole summer Don't go around there wearing the wrong color Cause if you do, you might just get run up (run up) You might just get run up (run up) They'll steal your whole summer (run up) You might just get run up (run up) You might just get run up (run up) Watch your back Better know what part of town you're in When the men in the mood begin to grin Better have a good reason that you're in Leaving when the street lights begin to blink See the writing on the wall like what you think And the music in the distance ain't ya thing Better get what you came for When the same doors you came through will lock your ass out No exceptions, no reception, one way in and just one exit Once that taboo was so infectious But if I was you I'd change directions Because if they do start with questions Then go showing your mentions Now they ain't gon' know where to send it When them boys 'round out but unexpected Nah they won't know When the sun goes down, the hustlers gon' come up Watch your step or they'll steal your whole summer Don't go around there wearing the wrong color Cause if you do, you might just get run up (run up) You might just get run up (run up) They'll steal your whole summer (run up) You might just get run up (run up) You might just get run up (run up) Watch your back Some are feeling like Saigon My city give you lead to try on If you lightweight like Nylon Get a one-way ticket to your Zion Babylon, either one son You don't wanna be defeated when the gun come Get your lungs done, till your plum numb It's like a 12 with a 30 round drum drum What is the weather in K City? (Heated) What do you say when you way gritty? (Eat it) The prevailing bullets, you got the pedal and couldn't We by the devil and hooded when they pity (feed It) Chop chop till your Glock stops Get your box locked when the sun up 3 to block knots like I'm Basquiat 30 ought shot when they run up When the sun goes down, the hustlers gon' come up Watch your step or they'll steal your whole summer Don't go around there wearing the wrong color Cause if you do, you might just get run up (run up) You might just get run up (run up) They'll steal your whole summer (run up) You might just get run up (run up) You might just get run up (run up)
