Lyrics

Starlight Starbright First star I see tonight I wish I may I wish I might Get this lick I try to hit tonight Shinin' down on me Shinin' down on me Shinin' down on me Shinin' down on me Shinin' down on me Shinin' down on me Every time I think about it I still can't understand What make these niggas think they don't need a plan 'Cause if you don't have a plan, then, tell me what you got The old get rich quick scheme or bust her ass roc Nigga be punkin' out loc', dyin' over nothin' It's the ghetto witchdoctor with another loco potion Hickory, dickory, thievory Trickory, poverty, misory Pleads to insanoty Homocide, rivalry, garnd theft buglory Purgory, emergency surgory A.P.B, they lookin' for a G You ran through a field hopped a fence and climbed a tree 9-1-1, here they come for him Nigga with a gun, now your ass is done Ain't nowhere to hide, ain't nowhere to run 'Cause the helicopter light's as bright as the sun Shinin' down on me Shinin' down on me Shinin' down on me Bright as the sun Shinin' down on me Shinin' down on me Shinin' down on me Bright as the sun It seems nowadays, just to get some respect Ya gots to roll a Lex and collect a fat check Or come around the corner on three, hoppin' Blockin' up the street, flossy Mac on your D's And everybody's sayin' you're the man, loc' Never broke an' high off that preamp old smoke Sippin' in the seat, rollin' in the ragtop Chevy '63 The p-i-m-p on top of the game but now you're gettin' laid 'Cause that gak weed and yayo's playin' tricks on your brain You're lookin' for a way out before your gameplay out 'Cause once you game play out, ya lose all ya' kriz out Late one night you was rollin' down the block With a half a pint of yat and the 20 dollar rock One-time got behind you and they told you to stop But you kept rollin' 'cause ya said you wasn't broke Out like a sucka, you dumb mothafucka Now the chase is on and here go the song How in the Hell do you think you can run? When the helicopter light's as bright as the sun Shinin' down on me Shinin' down on me Shinin' down on me Bright as the sun Shinin' down on me Shinin' down on me Shinin' down on me Bright as the sun Lockdown since the '80 situation number 3, a Nigga is released from the penitentiary Fools betta recognize and visualize Don't be surprised ya betta realize They gotta plan for your ass, a cage for the mask, so If you're rollin' dirty ya then ya betta have a stash Spot in your whoopty an' know the whoompty whoofty When the whoompty whafty is done unto you, see He don't know the new game because the new game ain't true game Well he betta catch her quick because the old game is runnin' Nine is his waist, that's the new game loc, 'cause If you ain't heated, then you might get smoked He was walkin' down the street, mindin' his business Just happy to be free, and what do we see? From the corner of his house, here come one-time So off he dashed like they set fire to his ass 'Cause if he get caught, it's strike number three An' this might be his last day on the street I bet next time you'll listen when I tell ya son That the helicopter light's as bright as the sun Shinin' down on me Shinin' down on me Shinin' down on me Bright as the sun Shinin' down on me Shinin' down on me Shinin' down on me (ho yeah) Bright as the sun Shinin' down on me (shinin' down) Shinin' down on me (shinin' down) Shinin' down on me Bright as the sun Shinin' down on me Shinin' down on me Shinin' down on me Bright as the sun Shinin' down on me Shinin' down
