Midnight - A Tribe Called Quest

Written by：Jonathan Davis/Ali Shaheed Muhammad/Malik Taylor

The night is on my mind

The sun'll still shine

But the night is on my mind

So parlay while I drop this rhyme

See jake be gettin' illy when the sun get dark

They be comin' out the heads but sh*t

Don't let me start

Their activities are plenty in nighttime

Nighttime

For the ghetto child it seems to be the right time

See kids be gettin' stuck with jewels and fly gimmicks

Shorty see the action and then start to mimic

Runnin' to the corner the dice game is blazin'

Lookin' at the loot it seems so amazin'

Puts it short down to be exact would bound

He shakes the stones in his hand then

He let's it down uh

Scam money don't make none

He threw a trip on the ace now he's out son

Hits the local bodega to woof down a hero

Son is on a 'Midnight run' like de niro

Spots the shorty rock standin' on his block

The thieves be handlin' in the pumpsso

He asked it it's not

Conversation that he kicked to

The shorty was a sly one

Increased intensity his dance sure was a fly one

Took her to the crib there she ran her gibs

About mind upliftment and bein positive

He yawned and he sighed til 105

Then he finally realized that hunny wasn't live

At least he didn't plan on buildin' for the evenin'

Threw the fila on the dome and said

Come on yo we leavin'

Came out on the scene as he told her to beep him

Saw his man sam with the blunt in his hand

Aww shhh you know the transaction

Brothas gettin' lost in the weed satisfaction

Comin' down the block man loud as

You would swear redman was inside the trunk

As the night seemed darker cops is on a hunt

They interrupt ya cipher and crush ya blunt

See you left your work at home so

They pat you down for nuthin'

Why in the hell does 10 4 keep frontin'

You push to the park even though' it's still dark

The kid is nice on the hoop he said 'I'll spot ya troop'

The night is on my mind

The sun'll still shine

But now the night is on my mind

The night is on the mind

The night is on your mind

A yo the sun'll still shine

But now the night is on the mind

As for me

I'm a nocturnal animal god concentrates

On a young black man who makes

The niggaz speak a shake

The nighttime is busy it's word to aunt kizzy

It's the time we get down yo son you know the sound

The flavas on the top with the rugged beat to back it

The night makes the aura and the j can't hack it

The way the moon dangles in the midnight sky

And the stars dance around a yo I think it's fly

Intensity most rappers don't see it

Spirit wise musically you gotta be it

Serenity and sirens of the sounds and emotions

In the concrete jungle and the sun don't bungle

I think it's hard to find the words on how I feel

I paid about a deuce twenty for the ampex steel

But let me slow down I think I ran my gibs enough

Peace out to the nation stay rugged and rough

The night is on my mind

The sun'll still shine

The night is on my mind

The night is on my mind

The night is on my mind

Yeah the sun'll still shine

But now the night is on my mind

Uh ah

The night is on my mind

The night is on your mind

You know

The sun'll still shine

But now the night is on the mind

Yeah

The night is on my mind

The night is on the mind

A yo the sun'll still shine

But now the night is on the mind

Yeah

The night is on the mind

The night is on the mind

A yo the sun'll still shine
