Lyrics THE NIGHT TIME STOOD STILL - Danny Ali

Let me take you to that night where time stood still
I was on my way back home, plotting on a mill
Still we eating value meals
21 with nothin' to give, I'm chasing
Dollar dollar bills
Chasing dollar dollar bills
Momma called my phone on the way to where I stay at
Broke, I ain't got paid in a couple, can't fill my tank yet
7:30 right on the dot, said, "Can you make that?" like
Dollar dollar bills
I need dollar dollar bills
Tension in her voice on the rise, I can still hear it
Remember staring right at the phone, it shook my spirit
Pretending I ain't notice
Okay ma, I'll be there after these
Dollar dollar bills
Come with the dollar dollar bills
Got to the crib and I shower
Jetting out on the hour
Am I in trouble
Did my school call telling her about that flower
Ion even smoke, but paranoia got my heart beating louder
Oh wait, the dollar dollar bills
I need the dollar dollar bills

I swear I'd give it all for the change
But nothing ever going to be the same
Yeah
One thing I know will always remain, is if I chase the
Dollar dollar bills
I'll get the dollar dollar bills

Mom and pops, waiting right there for me
That was weird for me
Separated when I was 7, so this was rare for me
Soaking in the moment, not noticing in the air
Was the 4th part of the family wasn't there
Parked on the side of that street
Right where I parked when I saw Dot and Cole
See, that was my first concert, I swear I might've found my soul
I knew that Ron would go, but 2nd time he ain't have time
Sold out show, but in that moment dawg I swear I was in there all alone
That's how I feel this time
That 7:30 turned into 9, can time rewind
Oblivious, not knowing the turn this going to take my life
I'm holding on as I write this
Them dollar dollar bills ain't even matter at the time, uh

I swear I'd give it all for the change
But nothing ever going to be the same
Yeah
One thing I know will always remain, is if I chase the
Dollar dollar bills
I'll get the dollar dollar bills

Sit down son
It's something we been keeping back
We love you with all our hearts, let us lead with that
This here going to be a lot for you
I know you just got home and about to leave again
(By now I'm tripping, wondering where B was at
He got a wife he just put a rock on, where the fuck he at)
Baby, he was driving back home
(Nah, where the fuck he at?)
They finally spilled the beans
He came up for a week
To get some work done at-
The cops pulled right up to his crib
No questions said sir come wit me
(Then let's get him?)
They said they already done took him up to jail
Set for 100k his balance is the bail
My life turned to living hell
Like we did all we could, and still failed
Cause we ain't got the-

I swear I'd give it all for the change
But nothing ever going to be the same
Yeah
One thing I know will always remain
