One minute



It was just another night

Daylight, wake up

Go through the next day

Will you survive?

You don’t know so really you’ve got to pray

Down in the hoods

The rules of the streets

The dark times are hard you don’t know where to start

First be real to our women

Treat her like a lady

Cause there is so much you’d better know before you’ll leave it

Crack baby

Wait to hell or paradise now who decides

You lived your life in the past and now you’ll pay the price



Chorus



In the night

In the dark

There are shadows in my heart

Feel this pain which is driving me (incredibly insane)

In the mirror of the street

There’s so much for you to see

Just one minute to think about your lie



Now you’re sitting (lay back)

Straight jackets and handcuffs all around

Waiting for a second chance just to get back (to down town)

The ghetto didn’t seem so tough I’ll tell u that that it is (out laws)

Living your life with drug addicted kids

Worldwide

Cash rules the things around me

There’s someone else who still loves you

It’s your own family

You’re just a victim of the street slipped down like (a hurricane)

I told ya take a minute to erase the pain



Chorus



In the night

In the dark

There are shadows in my heart

Feel this pain which is driving me (incredibly insane)

In the mirror of the street

There’s so much for you to see

Just one minute to think about your lie



Bridge



If you can feel the last of your tears

Take a minute cause the end is so near

Things will never gonna

Thinking about this wicked game

A faded memory

Deep in your mind is the place to be



Chorus



In the night

In the dark

There are shadows in my heart

Feel this pain which is driving me (incredibly insane)

In the mirror of the street

There’s so much for you to see

Just one minute to think about your lie



(repeat to fade
