[Isley Brother's sample]
"I keep hearin' footsteps baby, in the dark, oh in the dark"
[Bishop talking]
I'm gonna get something goin' off. This is one of my momma's favorites. It's cla**ic man. I'm gonna put a twist to it though. You know, upgrade it. To right now. Check it out.
[Verse One]
It's probably that robbery you did way back
Jacked them n***as for they dope, they always said they'd get you back
You'd be surprised how some of these guys can find out where you live at
It could have happened on March, it's never too far for the payback
Fake name at the motel, same thang with the rent-a-car
Okay swell, always keep your eyes on details
And watch out for them females
They'll get you sent
That's the same sh** that got that actor Romeo wet
Never have too many b**hes all off at your spot
That's in the top five reasons why most n***as get got
Let they guards down for pussies so it's hard to block
Got Jasmine Guy in your bed, that b**h hiddin' a glock
That's the Harlem Night special, it happens a lot
Heat the sheets, squeeze the trigger or she let 'em in your spot
Wake up to a double barrel pointed at your knot
I ain't sayin' that's the case but just possibly
Why?
[Chorus]
"I, keep hearing footsteps baby
In the dark, oh in the dark
Why? I keep hearing footsteps baby
In the dark
Oh in the dark, hoo" - 'Footsteps In The Dark' - The Isley Brothers
[Verse Two]
It ain't gotta be d** or some n***a you shot
It can be over love or some b**h you got
Or an ex all vexed cause he miss her a lot
So he snuck up in your complex waitin' to pop
f** gang bangin', p**y get a lot of n***as shot
A p**y will shoot you, you know how these b**hes do
Jealousy is a motherf**er
We've all been warned
That Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned
They act sweet till you make 'em act mean
Get caught tryin' to creep and feel the heat like Al Green
That's the least of your worries when n***as be gettin' buried
Them suicide b**hes make shrines out your pictures
Run up to your car and pop nines at your b**hes
Have you on the news in your homie's T-shirt
Better watch the hoes you choose, n***as do your research
Cause you don't wanna lose and have to cruise in that hearse
You sayin'....
[Chorus]
"I, keep hearing footsteps baby
In the dark, oh in the dark
Why? I keep hearing footsteps baby
In the dark
Oh in the dark, hoo" - 'Footsteps In The Dark' - The Isley Brothers
[Verse Three]
Now before I get indited, charges bein' one sided
The perspective for you ladies, unbiasly is provided
Cause I knew you was gon' hate and debate, don't even try it
Label me a woman hater cause the verses I recited
I admit, we n***as is crazy
But that don't mean go and have the motherf**ers baby
When you met him, that n***a was slangin'
You on the phone like Martin said, "Girl I can change him."
Ain't no changin' that
Ain't no changin' this
Especially when you dicknotized off some good dick
He can beat on you cheat on you and you still gon' stay
Cause he f** you right, apologize, then it's okay
But it's not and it never will be
Move back home with your momma cryin', "He tried to k** me."
You scared to leave him cause he said if you leavin'
It'll be not breathin'
Guess who in your window peekin'?
[Chorus]
"I, keep hearing footsteps baby
In the dark, oh in the dark
Why? I keep hearing footsteps baby
In the dark
Oh in the dark, hoo" - 'Footsteps In The Dark' - The Isley Brothers
[Outro]
Uh, yeah, huh, yeah, I love this song. Shouts out to the Isley Brothers. Mr. Biggs.
Thank you, so much. Haha, low down dirty woman, back to where you come from. Hahaha.
Oh yeah, um, just-just liner footnote, um, about, you know, the women, cause you know I'm gonna get hate on for the third verse.
But the sh** that be trippin' me out is...They be f**in' with a n***a that got a girl.
You know what I'm sayin', cheatin' with the n***a, then they get with and get mad when he cheat on them.
That's some crazy sh**. Hahaha. Yeah, shouts out to Nottz. Big Darryl. All of Virginia.
Huh, Patrick Tarrantino. Yeah. P.S....Beeotch!
"I, keep hearing footsteps baby
In the dark, oh in the dark"
