It's 3:33, eyes wide awake
Running from a stranger
Numbers start to replace
Step outside
Cars whistle by
The L Train thunders over
Am I even alive
Jumping the tracks
No turning back
The third rails alive
Systematic arrest
A two room apartment
Lights up in the dark
Pots and pans fill the sink
A cop was deceased
City lights, they mesmerize
Kaleidoscope of color on a humid night
City Lights, they mesmerize
Through a static horizon on a humid night
This city don't sleep
Insomniac freaks
Fill up the bodegas
As I creep through the streets
A simple twist in fate
From another mistake
Take two steps forward
And they're lying in wait
Trains squeal through the station
Taking everyones patience
Sucking you dry
Of resistance to hatred
Violence ascending
The blocks never ending
The sun crests the river
My nightmare is ending
It's 3:33, eyes wide awake
Running from a stranger
Numbers start to replace
Step outside
Cars whistle by
The L Train thunders over
Am I even alive
City lights, they mesmerize
Kaleidoscope of color on a humid night
City Lights, they mesmerize
Through a static horizon on a humid night
