[00:00:01] Written by：Jonathan Davis/Ali Shaheed Muhammad/Malik Taylor

[00:00:15] The night is on my mind

[00:00:18] The sun'll still shine

[00:00:20] But the night is on my mind

[00:00:22] So parlay while I drop this rhyme

[00:00:24] See jake be gettin' illy when the sun get dark

[00:00:26] They be comin' out the heads but sh*t

[00:00:28] Don't let me start

[00:00:29] Their activities are plenty in nighttime

[00:00:31] Nighttime

[00:00:32] For the ghetto child it seems to be the right time

[00:00:34] See kids be gettin' stuck with jewels and fly gimmicks

[00:00:37] Shorty see the action and then start to mimic

[00:00:39] Runnin' to the corner the dice game is blazin'

[00:00:42] Lookin' at the loot it seems so amazin'

[00:00:44] Puts it short down to be exact would bound

[00:00:47] He shakes the stones in his hand then

[00:00:48] He let's it down uh

[00:00:50] Scam money don't make none

[00:00:52] He threw a trip on the ace now he's out son

[00:00:54] Hits the local bodega to woof down a hero

[00:00:57] Son is on a 'Midnight run' like de niro

[00:01:00] Spots the shorty rock standin' on his block

[00:01:02] The thieves be handlin' in the pumpsso

[00:01:03] He asked it it's not

[00:01:05] Conversation that he kicked to

[00:01:06] The shorty was a sly one

[00:01:07] Increased intensity his dance sure was a fly one

[00:01:10] Took her to the crib there she ran her gibs

[00:01:12] About mind upliftment and bein positive

[00:01:15] He yawned and he sighed til 105

[00:01:17] Then he finally realized that hunny wasn't live

[00:01:20] At least he didn't plan on buildin' for the evenin'

[00:01:22] Threw the fila on the dome and said

[00:01:24] Come on yo we leavin'

[00:01:25] Came out on the scene as he told her to beep him

[00:01:28] Saw his man sam with the blunt in his hand

[00:01:30] Aww shhh you know the transaction

[00:01:33] Brothas gettin' lost in the w**d satisfaction

[00:01:35] Comin' down the block man loud as

[00:01:37] You would swear redman was inside the trunk

[00:01:40] As the night seemed darker cops is on a hunt

[00:01:43] They interrupt ya cipher and crush ya blunt

[00:01:45] See you left your work at home so

[00:01:47] They pat you down for nuthin'

[00:01:48] Why in the hell does 10 4 keep frontin'

[00:01:50] You push to the park even though' it's still dark

[00:01:53] The kid is nice on the hoop he said 'I'll spot ya troop'

[00:01:57] The night is on my mind

[00:01:59] The sun'll still shine

[00:02:02] But now the night is on my mind

[00:02:04] The night is on the mind

[00:02:07] The night is on your mind

[00:02:09] A yo the sun'll still shine

[00:02:12] But now the night is on the mind

[00:02:15] As for me

[00:02:16] I'm a nocturnal animal god concentrates

[00:02:18] On a young black man who makes

[00:02:20] The *z speak a shake

[00:02:21] The nighttime is busy it's word to aunt kizzy

[00:02:23] It's the time we get down yo son you know the sound

[00:02:26] The flavas on the top with the rugged beat to back it

[00:02:28] The night makes the aura and the j can't hack it

[00:02:31] The way the moon dangles in the midnight sky

[00:02:33] And the stars dance around a yo I think it's fly

[00:02:36] Intensity most rappers don't see it

[00:02:39] Spirit wise musically you gotta be it

[00:02:41] Serenity and sirens of the sounds and emotions

[00:02:43] In the concrete jungle and the sun don't bungle

[00:02:46] I think it's hard to find the words on how I feel

[00:02:48] I paid about a deuce twenty for the ampex steel

[00:02:51] But let me slow down I think I ran my gibs enough

[00:02:54] Peace out to the nation stay rugged and rough

[00:03:08] The night is on my mind

[00:03:10] The sun'll still shine

[00:03:13] The night is on my mind

[00:03:15] The night is on my mind
