[Intro]
When the night begins to fall
When you hear the siren call
How's your real love life?
When shadows fill the sky
You know it's time to rise

[Verse 1: French the Kid]
Look, yo
She told me, "French, your life's a movie, come and watch it babe"
But my darling when you're in this world you can't escape
Face is bait
I'm tryna vibe and get my brothers paid
Stuck up in this system using violence as a way to stay
Shit's so crazy I get lazy with the things I do
I never let shit phase me from the days I think I lose
Yeah that's through and through
Turnin' all my violеts blue
Like sure you carе for me and brother I will die for you, it's real
And "fuck fakes", how I feel
Used to care about this life until my bro was nearly killed
I ain't all there up in my brain, that's why I can't take the pills
And I was scared up in the dark until I gripped on the steel
You can't tell me nothing, tell me shit, my boy I seen it all
Back when I was banging ball to thinking selling drugs was cool
Shit, my boy I seen it all
Back when I was banging ball to thinking selling drugs was cool
[Chorus]
When the night begins to fall
When you hear the siren call
When shadows fill the sky
You know it's time to rise

[Verse 2: Slimz]
They don't know you on the come up
They only know you when you're there
Where was you when I was broke living out my nightmares?
Cure of each on the dead strip, extortionate affairs
But all the sirens kept calling, still got shoes by the stairs
I was one up in the trenches Rambo tucked for my oppressors
But my feelings tell the psych I gotta channel my attention
It's my life on the track, but look I chose to get that train
Give a fuck about the pity I'm just showing you the pain
You ever wanted it so much you kept it going in the rain?
You ever took the wrong turn just to go and pave the way?
Man I've done it don't regret it, glad I've lived to see the day
It weren't pretty, real gritty, now this music gets me paid
And for the young boys that are listening, don't feel pressure by the way
There ain't no love in these streets, it only turn my heart to clay
And hella losses now this life ain't a game
'Cause I got guys up in the wok and I got brothers in the grave

[Outro]
When shadows fill the sky
(Now my brother's mum's in tears 'cause he did time and it's bo-)
How's your real love life?
You know it's time to rise
(It's a bitter pill to swallow, so just fill that sorrow)
(Now my brother's mum's in tears 'cause he did time and it's bo-)
(Hoo-ooh-ooh)
(Hoo-ohh-ooh)
When the night begins to fall
When you hear the siren call
(Hoo-ooh-ooh)
(Hoo-ooh-ooh)
