Knight Fall Lyrics


When night falls over the city
Gotta be ready 'cause it feels like
Somebody's comin' to get meIt's ten o'clock and darkness covers my area
And every night it's gettin' a little bit more scarier
The eleven o'clock Monday news is more like a horror flick
People sure have changed, it seems that they enjoying thisDeath and destruction with no instruction
Leads to malfunction, disruption and full consumption
How can I escape this mind state that I'm in?
I been tryin' but it seems that I can't winI've fallen and I can't get up
And the homies that was my homies want to set me up
Somebody tried to tell me that it was all in my brain
I tried to act a hard male runnin' cocaine but it still don't ease my painAm I insane or a victim of my own fears?
What's goin' on, we supposed to be happy here
"God don't make no junk," that's what I been told
But it seems to me that God ain't in controlWhen night falls over the city
Gotta be ready 'cause it feels like
Somebody's comin' to get meWhen night falls over the city
Gotta be ready 'cause it feels like

Somebody's comin' to get meI need assistance but all I get is resistance
I try to be persistent but life can be gone in an instant
I'm scared to turn around 'cause I know somebody's watching
I can feel they evil stares and I know that they plottin' on meAnd scheamin', I wish I was dreamin'
If my mind was free I could chase away the demons
But it ain't and they still can't understand
That all I ever wanted in life was a chance to be a manThe same old pattern has got me goin' crazy, loc
Descendant of a king but I feel like a royal joke
Is this a sequel? Are all men created equal?
The lies you told to the people back then, now they is lethalAnd now we swimmin' in the pool like shark bait
Feel my pulse race, abnormal heart rate
And now I'm startin' to feel like I might come up missin'
I tried to tell somebody but nobody wouldn't listenWhen night falls over the city
Gotta be ready 'cause it feels like
Somebody's comin' to get meWhen night falls over the city
Gotta be ready 'cause it feels like
Somebody's comin' to get meI'm feelin' oppressed, this stifle, my life is trifle
No family, friends or relations, so I sleep with my rifle
And my pistol, I'm seein' stars and hearin' whistles
One shot from a little junky ass twenty-two will tear a whole your gristleWon't stay to state side
'Cause the unpure fall off the fall by the way side
So stay your ass on the plate sideThere's nothin' to fear but the fear itself
And if you control the fear, then the fear is wealth
Do I have power or do I have no self control?
These long, lonely nights have made my heart grow coldHear my pleads, can somebody help a G
And will we fight this battle for eternity
I blame you 'cause my mind is not my own
So don't blame me if I trespass in yo' zoneI'm your creation
The product of a twisted nation
Guess, this is what you're facin'When night falls over the city
Gotta be ready 'cause it feels like
Somebody's comin' to get meWhen night falls over the city
Gotta be ready 'cause it feels like
Somebody's comin' to get meWhen night falls over the city
Gotta be ready 'cause it feels like
Somebody's comin' to get meWhen night falls over the city
Gotta be ready 'cause it feels like
Somebody's comin' to get meWhen night falls over the city
Gotta be ready 'cause it feels like
Somebody's comin' to get me

Coolio (born Artis Leon Ivey, Jr. on August 1, 1963 in Compton, California) is an American rapper and actor whose G-Funk sounding beats and funky flow make listening very pleasant. Coolio started his career as a member of the rap group, WC And The Maad Circle.

In 1994, Coolio released his debut album It Takes a Thief which featured the hugely successful singles, Fantastic Voyage and It Takes a Thief. In 1995 Coolio released his second and most successful album Gangsta's Paradise, which went 4X Platinum and featured the mega hit, Gangsta's Paradise and the popular party track, Sumpin New. The album 'Gangsta's Paradise" is considered by some to be a classic west coast Gangsta rap album, thanks to songs like Exercise Yo Game and Geto Highlites. His G-Funk sounding beats and soulful flow softens the typically edgy effect of rap. His hit song "Gangsta's Paradise" combined singing with rap. Coolio's recordings also appeared on the soundtracks to Clueless (1995) and Dangerous Minds (1995).

However, Coolio's next few albums, 1997's My Soul, 2002's El Cool Magnifico and 2006's Return Of The Gangsta, failed to live up to the success of his first two albums.

In 2009 he released the album From the Bottom 2 the Top. He also took part in the reality TV show "Celebrity Big Brother" in the UK, in which he placed third. He returned to Big Brother UK in 2010 to take part in Ultimate Big Brother - the last ever series of the reality show
