(adomant) //early morning hours on foot mode to the house not a creature was stirring my vision was blurring/high as a flight drunk as a drunk/stumbled out the backdoor of the party when the cops showed up in front/now i find myself/by myself/walking home/lost my phone/thinking about the demons plotting and scheming while we're sleeping/might as well stay up all night/make it to the twilight zone/catch a glimpse of morning light/before I make my way back home/passing through the flatlands/know this place like the back of my hand man/crack houses and crackdowns/cracked windows and cracked crowns/cracks on the sidewalks talking shit but i wont back down/this here's my hometown/i'll show you how it goes down/those that talk the most often end up making no sound so I keep my nose out of business that'’s not my own//

(chorus)//this is what happens when you go out at night/ and you don’'t know where you’'re going/ you might just stumble upon something that somebody don’t want you to be knowing//
/they come to creep on you/ cause that’s just what they do//

(open)//in the wrong street on the wrong side of town/you can see the opportunity just/crumbling down/and from the different dividends/where border lines are giving in/and there is one source of dirt that everybodys digging in/now heres the thing/I never even seen or heard a thing/on purpose cuz the persons who knew better told me not to/thought you were street savy but not around these avenues/alleyways/under overpasses turning corners/smack dab in the middle of smack dabbling street coroners/walking stiffs/watch the people that youre talking with/and eye contact means you better react or youre just that much more vulnerable/its horrible the things that darkness does to innocence and ignorance are synonyms in certain parts of town/so mind your P's and Q's and dont's and do's and please listen to the moral of the story when the sun goes down…

(chorus) it don'’t matter how bright you are/when they put your lights out you're no superstar/it don'’t matter how smooth you are/when they put your lights out you're no superstar/
/they come to creep on you/ cause that’s just what they do/

(spends) //eastbound/ leaving the sun behind me as it goes down/ plan to hit the highway in the evening when it cools down/ there’s no clouds/ and no more city lights the stars come out/ reminds you that the world is bigger than your little town/ take a look around you/ nothings familiar in your surroundings/ except for shadows in the distance creeping slowly think they’ve found me/ and what might lurk in the darkness could be searching for its bounty/ but anyways I’m outty/ gotta bounce from the county/ too much shadiness invaded my space the predators prowling/ and I’ve gotta face the facts that so much happens I’ve been doubting/ the pressures mounting/ building up the tension feeling hounded/ somebodies eyes are watching round the clock your presence counted/ so I rounded the corner faster thought I could shake that fear factor/ but they’re still following after and they’ll have the last laughter/ if you’ve seen something that you shouldn’t have and still you blabber/ you might be running for your life and wondering what be after//

(chorus)//this is what happens when you go out at night/ and you don’t know where you’re going/ you might just stumble upon something that somebody don’t want you to be knowing//
/they come to creep on you/ cause that’s just what they do//
