The Let Out Lyrics
[00:11.71]Step, step
[00:16.74]Step, step
[00:20.60]Will I make it home? (Step)
[00:23.54]Will I make it home? (Step)
[00:25.93]Only God knows (step)
[00:28.37]Only God knows (step)
[00:31.61]Inside of the club on a wall, she was right to the side of me
[00:33.94]Couldn't tell there was danger around, damn, she blinded me
[00:36.42]"Please watch your step," I heard from a concerned gentleman
[00:39.04]He was 'bout my age with a face that displayed he was genuine
[00:41.51]"Be safe," he said, "Heard niggas who was loud in the hallway
[00:44.14]By the bathroom door, they was plottin' on you and your compadres"
[00:46.88]So I sobered up quick with a heightened sense of fear in me
[00:49.40]What the fuck you doin' in the Ville with no security?
[00:50.99]Yeah, they'll say they love you, but trust, that don't mean anything
[00:53.98]Somebody gon' hate you, for what? It could be anything
[00:56.65]The way that you walk, you talk, the way you rap, you know
[00:59.34]The way that you put on the Ville, but you barely come back no more
[01:01.69]My radar is up, I know this is due with a separate load
[01:04.54]The vibe is negative, I'm telling shawty we got to go
[01:06.82]And at the same moment, I swear that the lights came on
[01:09.19]The DJ was yellin' some shit on the microphone, he said
[01:12.16]"Yeah, you ain't got to go home (you ain't to go back home)
[01:14.83]But you gotta get the-, but you gotta get the fuck out of here
[01:18.83]Fuck out of here, fuck out of here, fuck out of here, fuck out of here (but you can't stay, can't stay)
[01:22.54]When the lights come on (when those lights start turning on)
[01:25.38]Everybody, get the-, everybody, get the fuck out of here
[01:29.04]Fuck out of here, fuck out of here, fuck out of here, fuck out of here (you can't stay, can't stay)
[01:32.68]Oh, will we survive the let-out? Will we survive the let-out?
[01:38.94]Will we survive the let-out? Will we survive the let-out?
[01:43.14]Oh, will we survive the let-out? Will we survive the let-out?
[01:49.20]Will we survive the let-out? Will we survive the-
[01:53.29]She got the type of thang you can't even find no more
[01:55.96]They play the type of games I don't be around no more
[01:58.45]I see some niggas that tyin' bandanas on they face
[02:00.81]Hop in the trunk, that's where the hammers always lay
[02:03.54]I'm tryna find a way to get to the parking spot
[02:06.17]Feel like a mile away, I got to get off the block
[02:08.55]Shawty done stopped and put her hands around my waist and told me, "I want you," damn
[02:15.16]Step, step (nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, not right now, right now, no)
[02:16.71]Yes, it happened to me, my nigga (keep walking, keep walking, keep walking)
[02:19.87](Let's go this way, right here)
[02:20.21]And please believe me when I tell you it can happen to you (niggas on some weird shit)
[02:24.29]Proceed with caution, thinkin' they stalkin' your moves
[02:26.86]Pistols be sparkin', leaving your thoughts on your shoes
[02:29.38]Outside of the club, paranoid with keys in my hand
[02:31.88]Heard the shots ring out, full survival instincts, we ran
[02:37.03]Will I make it home? (Will I make it home?)
[02:39.82]Will I make it home? (Will I make it home?)
[02:42.48]Only God, only God, only God knows
[02:47.86]Will I make it home? (Will I make it home?)
[02:49.94]Will I make it home? (Will I make it home?)
[02:52.66]Only God knows, only God knows if I'ma ever get back to you
[03:08.11]Oh, will we survive the let-out? Will we survive the let-out?
[03:14.07]Will we survive the let-out? Will we survive the let-out?
[03:18.19]Oh, will we survive the let-out? Will we survive the let-out?
[03:24.56]Will we survive the let-out? Will we survive the let-out?
[03:30.76]In a hood near you (in a hood near you)
[03:32.94]There's a late-night gathering of souls in the parking lot
[03:35.94]Shortly after the club close 'cause niggas don't wanna go home
[03:40.40]But it won't be long 'fore somebody start wildin'
[03:42.78]Shots start firin', and good time turn violent
[03:46.54]At the let-out
[03:48.79]Oh, will we survive the let-out? Will we survive the let-out?
[03:55.53]Will we survive the let-out? Will we survive the let-out?
[03:59.49]Oh, will we survive the let-out? Will we survive the let-out?
[04:05.42]Will we survive the let-out? Will we survive the let-out?
