Joell Ortiz & Novel - Night Train lyrics
rate me
Chorus:
I… I’ve been going crazy,
Working past midnight,
Hold on that train,
So I let down my trash.
I can’t complain,
I’m not going to give up,
Until the whole world knows my name!
I hate the sound of an alarm clock,
I have to get myself up, while is still dark.
I can’t sleep waiting on the damn train,
Last week I almost quit and pop the champagne
To celebrate that I no longer have to struggle,
But I get in; in fact I stayed longer and did a double.
I feel like a sell out!
All of my Niggers are hostiles
And my children are getting on me now,
And are getting struggle.
So every day I report to this mean guy,
I call him boss; swallow my pride when he screams high.
The same work, the same ten minute break,
The same money is for taxes, to the Feds and the State.
The same amount of bills still sitting in the mail,
The same elevator full of pee smell,
The same TV shows at night while I’m in bed,
So this place …………….
Chorus:
I… take the comments from the haters,
I don’t see the big deal,
Should they say he’s dumb?
I can’t believe they say its energy is the same as pun,
He ain’t ask for that release, ……
Ya all crazy, ya all listen to the words,
Can an adjective describe the noun sitting with the verb?
I’m bigger than the bird,
I’m hip-hop’s new blackberry.
Yo Niggers still…………….
But the …………….. like a ………… that hit the curb.
When they finish with the brick,
They couldn’t listen to you, herbs
You’re painful like junk food sitting in the……….
So when they say you’re top ten,
Hell, ya! Don’t get disturbed!
I turn the MTV and the Cribs it’s just observed,
And ain’t got no money like…………
But it won’t be long before I’m living in the burgs,
Cause I work hard, I pray and I’m…………..
Chorus:
I’ve been a desert, I feel like a hundred and forty two old,
I wanna chill with the baseball,
But I have a ……………….
These backpacks feel heavy when you wanna………….
Moving our spot to Afghanistan,
Damn, I miss my men!
What’s the peace about?
I see them sot and screaming and then my dream stops.
The food is extra trash so I ain’t eat a lot,
But I won’t give…………
Or pizza shot, or snickers…., or ….
While I’m in the block I wonder ……………
And ………….
I’m four and a half hours after,
Now it’s three o’clock,
I’ve been killing kids in these fricking blocks.
They say you sleep better every time you do a wright thing
Oh yes?
This must be wrong,
I’m awake, these thoughts are…..
