Late night, I’m just trying to make it back home
To make it in these streets you need a backbone
All my competition, I feel bad for ‘em
‘Bout to kill ‘em all, no mask on
Turn your life into a sad song
All that cappin’ it don’t last long
Got that trash bag we ‘gon pass on
I’m just trying to make it back home
[Verse 1]
I can’t sleep so I hop in my Range to take a ride
Needs some ‘woods, need some water to hydrate while I’m high
Hit the 7-Eleven, it’s ‘bout 11:45
Shorty texting on my line saying pull up
Come and work this pussy out like you doing pull-ups
She be talking nasty and I love it, we do too much
Should’ve doubled-back to grab my heater, I wish I would’ve
‘Cause niggas out here flocking, they’ll come right through your window
Fuck it, I’ll be straight. I ain’t going on no date
I’m just pulling up to hit, I won’t be back that late
I knock on her door to let me in, her name Evelyn, brown skin
From the Bay, but a real L.A. resident
She said she got some friends with an ‘end and we can make some cash
It won’t cost me nothing but an hour and a tank of gas
She let me smash, now we out here on the road
Ain’t no telling where this night’s about to go
I’m trying to make it back home

Late night, I’m just trying to make it back home
To make it in these streets you need a backbone
All my competition, I feel bad for ‘em
‘Bout to kill ‘em all, no mask on
Turn your life into a sad song
All that cappin’ it don’t last long
Got that trash bag we ‘gon pass on
I’m just trying to make it back home
[Verse 2]
Got on the freeway, pulled off of the Van Nuys exit
She got the address in the GPS, I’m following directions
Made two lefts and a right, before I asked her the question like: “Where we headed, who we ‘bout to get?”
“Remember my homegirl Tammy with that ass you said that you can’t forget? She got a brand new man and his ass is rich. And in the backseat of his Benz he left a couple bricks. I gotta make this rent real quick and that’s an easy lick”
I said: “Shit, that sound good to me”
She said: “Don’t trip, we real close. It’s just up the street”
So I creep, pull up right next to the Benz and I park
She jump out, now I’m chilling here sitting in the dark
I’d never been a mark so I’d keep my eyes peeled and realized: “someone trying to slide up then pass your side wheel”
They reached for the door, I hit the lock
Hear a couple shots, hit the gas, while a nigga smash out the parking lot

‘Bout to kill ‘em all, no mask on
Turn your life into a sad song
All that cappin’ it don’t last long
Got that trash bag we ‘gon pass on
I’m just trying to make it back home
