Nightshift - Inspectah Deck

"Children grow and women produce  
and men go work  and some go stealin  
everyone's got to make a livin" 

[Intro: Inspectah Deck] 
Yo  yo  murderous specialist tactics 
In effect y'all  in effect y'all 
In effect y'all  yo  yo 
Yea  it's all about  it's all about 
It's all about how you live it 
It's all about how you live it 
How you live it... 

[Inspectah Deck] 
Yo  a big time slinger named Ty from Bed-stuy 
Had all the drug blocks locked on the westside 
Nickels and dimes, sellin drugs of all kinds 
But never seen on the streets in the day time 
When it gets dark and the clock strikes six 
If you standin on the block, you gots to face the click 
Prepare to be stuck, young buck, you wanna gamble? 
Got to pay dues if you plan to scramble 
Ty has spots, glocks, knots in the web for throwin away cops 
He had a piece named Alice, she was no joke 
Quick to wet a nigga who tryin to cut throat 
But, yo, Ty was no new Jack, he knew that 
he was marked for death cuz niggaz had contracts 
He had mad uzis in his crib 
He paid 300 g's in the boondocks in Jersey 
And at his lab was the '98 Lex with the rag 
He never drove cuz he moves in cabs 
A veteran in art of drug peddlin 
No one could stop him or knock him cuz he's headed in 
the direction that gets his click filthy rich 
for gettin paid on the night shift 

"Everyone's got to make a livin" (x4) 

[Inspectah Deck] 
On the shadowy midtown streets, there's a hooker 
Crafty-ass hoe by the name of brown sugar 
Large as a blimp, mad miss wearin garments 
like mink coats cuz she cut her pimp's throat 
The ordinary prostitute, she got the Power U 
made niggaz come back, spendin mad loot 
Her style's wild with the blade in her purse 
Slice her twice before you feel the first 
Sweatin Madison Avenue high-class bars 
with plenty of Broadway stars and fly cars 
Swingin her back to the la
