Текст:

[Common] Yeah, yo, yo, yo-yo, yo, yo Yo, a touch of jazz y'all, yeah, yeah ? y'all, yo they got us on the run, like [Jill Scott] 8 minutes to sunrise Oh baby now, what are we gonna do? (I don't know..) Pressure is mountin Oh baby now, how we gonna get through? (I, don't, know) Can't go left (uh-uh) can't go right (uh-uh) Don't know, how we made it through the night (c'mon c'mon c'mon) 7 minutes to sunrise Oh baby now, what are we gonna do? (Do it, do it..) [Common] It was once said by Black Thought that +Things Fall Apart+ Knew I shouldn't have been messin with dude's girl from start But I pimp from the heart, the art of it made it interestin Plus me and sister blend before we got intimate Friend or no friend, my man caught wind This chick is payin me, it'll either cost me or cost him Told her she shoulda lost him (when?) a while ago Cause dude'll drink a pile of Mo' and defile her yo I ain't here to start on this (nigga) for me to wreck his broad you could tell what I thought of this (nigga) Nickname was Smoke, don't know if that was cause of cigarettes (or what?) or guns he tote, he called shots on the deck so I wasn't tryin to call his bluff, by his persona you could see, he think he tough! If that wasn't enough, old girl had his son This is Wild like the West I'm like Jesse on the run, uhh [Jill Scott] 6 minutes to sunrise Oh baby now, what are we gonna do? (I don't know..) Pressure is mountin Oh baby now, how we gon' get through? (I, don't, know) Can't go left and (uh-uh) can't go right and (uh-uh) Don't know, how we made it through the night (yo, we got..) 5 minutes to sunrise Oh baby now, what are we gonna do? (Do it, do it..) [Common] I understand that time is runnin out, I'm thinkin of town-skippin Got a Chevy but the alternator be trippin I'm hittin rum straight, thinkin of a route to truncate The streets is watchin, out is one way I put myself in his Nike's His position is, "Aight man, somebody bonin my lady" Probably snap like Rod-man My plan was to meet at this bar called the Tiki (when?) 'round four, when she was comin she would beep me I sat deep in the corner, drinkin zombies, becomin one by now Wonderin if my style would support her and her child Out the corner of my eye saw this stud I recognized (who?) One of Smoke's guys, to stay out of sight I tried Told Jill Scott to meet we coulda picked a better spot On some "Nobody's Supposed to Be Here" (shit) like Deborah Cox Looked at my watch, (shit) I don't even got a watch Felt for my glock, damnit I don't even got a glock, yo [Jill Scott] 4 minutes to sunrise Oh baby now, what are we gonna do? (I don't know..) Pressure is mountin Oh baby now, how we gon' get through? (I, don't, know) Can't go left and (uh-uh) can't go right and (uh-uh) Don't know, how we made it through the night (c'mon c'mon) 3 minutes to sunrise Oh baby now, what are we gonna do? (Do it, do it..) [Common] Pressure puh-pressure what? The pressure's cookin It ain't good lookin, like a black promoter I'm talkin bookin Not that I'm spooked of dude, I could whup him But he was on the horn informin the rest of them hoodlums (aight) Usually I wouldn't fight over a woman, old girl had a sun-shine was messed up, on Smoke's payroll was one-time My pager went off, it read one line: "Come get me from Halsted," I'm thinkin this is monkey bar [shit] Went to the phone quick, called her (what happened?) Her line was busy Situation number nine, got my mind dizzy Wondered if this plan was designed to get me I've been drinkin too strong to be thinkin too long Like 40 goin North I'm doin 50, headed for the spot Askin
