Richie Cunning - Night Train lyrics

[Intro] I've been down one time And I been down two times But now I'm drownin' Drownin' in a sea of hope Lemme tell you all about it... Train intercom: [?] Check check it out y'all Yeah [Verse 1] The city was My first love sittin' on the train Thinking puddles of rain, traffic lights blinking Boulevards full of bus stops and bullet scars Where hard knocks hustling but nobody trust cops Cheap cigar smoke in broke apartments Alleyways cloaked in darkness. Neon Lights burning in local markets And real people with nothing To eat in these streets cold and heartless Sometimes I ride these trains to the end of the line Sit in the back, surrender my mind Ain't no way to better spend my time, looking out the Window, I send a rhyme to the stars for a friend of mine I sit around and watch all the faces Pacing through the subway stations, just slaves to the pavement Stash your cash and make sure you got the right change 'Cos we 'bout to take a ride on the night train [Verse 2] Blunts and bags of weed Concrete full of cracks, and tags that read Cold city full of sights that's sad to see But there ain't really no place I'd rather be Uh, yeah, old timers, crime kings and conquerers Quiet commoners and anonymous street wanderers Police officers just itching to flash if They think for a minute that you wasn't kissing they a** Every corner got a story that was never told Every street light's seen something incredible Me and the city got a relationship, and I love her but sometimes I just can't take this sh** Lonely souls full of tears and woes wanna get Off, but we missed our stop years ago Still ridin', hoping that our life changed But we ain't never getting off the night train
