The Let Out

J. Cole

Letra

    Step, step
    Step, step
    Will I make it home? (Step)
    Will I make it home? (Step)
    Only God knows (step)
    Only God knows (step)

    Inside of the club on a wall, she was right to the side of me
    Couldn't tell there was danger around, damn, she blinded me
    Please watch your step, I heard from a concerned gentlemen
    He was 'bout my age with a face that displayed he was genuine
    Be safe, he said, heard niggas who was loud in the hallway
    By the bathroom door they was plottin' on you and your compadres
    So I sobered up quick with a heightened sense of fear in me
    What the fuck you doin' in the Ville with no security?
    Yeah, they'll say they love you, but trust, that don't mean anything
    Somebody gon' hate you, for what? It could be anything
    The way that you walk, you talk, the you rap, you know
    The way that you put on the Ville but you barely come back no more
    My radar is up, I know this is [?] with a separate [load?]
    The vibe is negative, I'm telling shawty we got to go
    And at the same moment, I swear that the lights came on
    The DJ was yellin' some shit on the microphone, he said
    Yeah, you ain't got to go home (oh, you ain't to go back home)
    But you gotta get the– but you gotta get the fuck out of here
    Fuck out of here, fuck out of here, fuck out of here, fuck out of here (but you can't stay, can't stay)
    When the lights come on (when those lights start turning on)
    Everybody, get the– everybody, get the fuck out of here
    Fuck out of here, fuck out of here, fuck out of here, fuck out of here (you can't stay, can't stay)

    Ooh, will we survive the let out? Will we survive the let out?
    Will we survive the let out? Will we survive the let out?
    Oh, will we survive the let out? Will we survive the let out?
    Will we survive the let out? Will we survive the–

    She got the type of thang you can't even find no more
    They play the type of games I don't be around no more
    I see some niggas that tyin' bandannas on they face
    Hop in the trunk, that's where the hammers always lay
    I'm tryna find a way to get to the parking spot
    Feel like a mile away, I got to get off the block
    Shawty done stopped and put her hands around my waist and told me: I want you, damn

    Step, step (nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, not right now, right now, no)
    Yes, it happened to me, my nigga (keep walking, keep walking, keep walking)
    Let's go this way, right here
    And please believe me when I tell you it can happen to you (niggas on some weird shit)

    Proceed with caution, thinkin' they stalkin' your moves
    Pistols be sparkin', leaving your thoughts on your shoes
    Outside of the club paranoid with keys in my hand
    Heard the shots ring out, full survival instincts, we ran

    Will I make it home? (Will I make it home?)
    Will I make it home? (Will I make it home?)
    Only God, only God, only God knows
    Will I make it home? (Will I make it home?)
    Will I make it home? (Will I make it home?)
    Only God knows, only God knows if I'ma ever get back to you

    Ooh, will we survive the let out? Will we survive the let out?
    Will we survive the let out? Will we survive the let out?
    Oh, will we survive the let out? Will we survive the let out?
    Will we survive the let out? Will we survive the let out?

    In a hood near you (in a hood near you)
    There's a late-night gathering of souls in the parking lot shortly after the club close 'cause niggas don't wanna go home
    But it won't be long 'fore somebody start wildin', shots start firin', and good time turn violent
    At the let out

    Ooh, will we survive the let out? Will we survive the let out?
    Will we survive the let out? Will we survive the let out?
    Oh, will we survive the let out? Will we survive the let out?
    Will we survive the let out? Will we survive the let out?
