[Is_MAX_MODE: MAX](MAX) [QUALITY: MAX](MAX) [REALISM: MAX](MAX) [REAL_INSTRUMENTS: MAX](MAX) Late Night Creep: Part 6 — Everybody Connected [Intro – Sung Male Lead, Dark and Suspenseful] I told y’all I was the last one finding out... But before I tell you how they caught us, You gotta understand something... None of us were strangers. Nah... This shit went back way further than I knew. OOOOHHHH YEAHyeah [Verse 1 – Fully Sung, Storytelling] My wife and that woman grew up side by side, Same neighborhood stories, same people in their lives. Years before I ever came around, They already knew the same faces all over town. Birthday parties, mutual friends, Old relationships that crossed again. My wife introduced us like it was nothing deep, Never knowing one day we'd be on a Late Night Creep. She already knew my wife, My wife already knew her. They'd been around each other's people Long before I ever knew her. And looking back now, That's the part that's wild to me... The woman I was creeping with Was already part of my wife's history. [Pre-Chorus – Tension Building] Small world... Too damn small. Everybody connected, But I never saw it at all. One introduction... One name... One night... And suddenly everything Was tied together tight. [Chorus – Catchy, Stacked Harmonies] Late Night Creep... Late Night Creep... Secrets run deeper than they seem. (Lord, they run deep...) Late Night Creep... Late Night Creep... Everybody knew somebody On that Late Night Creep. (Who knew who?) (Who knew me?) Same friends... Same streets... Same circles underneath. Late Night Creep... Late Night Creep... Everybody connected On that Late Night Creep. (Ooh...) (Yeah...) (Late night...) (Creep...) [Verse 2 – Fully Sung, Darker Reveal] Now her husband wasn't no stranger either, Me and him knew each other from the streets. Wasn't like we were best friends, But we knew the same names, Ran into each other through the same people every week. Mutual friends brought him around, Different places, same side of town. A handshake here, A conversation there, Never thinking his wife Would be the woman in my affair. He knew people that knew me, I knew people that knew him. Friends of friends kept crossing paths Again and again. And all that time, Neither one of us could see How his house and my house Would become part of the same damn secrecy. [Pre-Chorus – Building Higher] Small world... Way too small. Everybody had connections, But nobody told me at all. And the deeper I looked, The crazier it got... Because every road Led back to somebody we already knew. [Chorus – Bigger] Late Night Creep... Late Night Creep... Secrets run deeper than they seem. (Deeper than I knew...) Late Night Creep... Late Night Creep... Everybody knew somebody On that Late Night Creep. (She knew her...) (I knew him...) Same friends... Same streets... Same circles underneath. Late Night Creep... Late Night Creep... Everybody connected On that Late Night Creep. [Bridge – Faster Delivery, Connections Stacking] My wife knew her Way before I knew her name. She introduced me to her, But I already knew her man from the game. He knew folks that knew my folks, And my folks knew some of his. She had friends that knew my wife, And they had friends that knew both of them. She knew her... I knew him... They knew them... And they knew us. (Wait a minute...) One friend introduced another, Then another brought somebody through. Everybody knew somebody That somehow knew somebody we knew. My wife knew his wife... His wife knew my wife... I knew her husband... But never knew their life. She introduced me to her... Somebody introduced him to mine... And somehow all those introductions Put the wrong people together At the right damn time. (Damn...) Same friends... Same circles... Same streets... Same secrets... So how the hell Did we go through all these people we knew... Just to end up creeping With somebody They knew too? [Beat Drop] Late... Night... Creep... [Final Chorus – Full Stacks, Strong Ad-Libs] Late Night Creep... Late Night Creep... Secrets run deeper than they seem. (So much deeper...) (I couldn't even see it...) Late Night Creep... Late Night Creep... Everybody knew somebody On that Late Night Creep. (She knew her...) (I knew him...) (They knew them...) (They knew us...) Same friends... Same streets... Same circles underneath. Late Night Creep... Late Night Creep... Everybody connected On that Late Night Creep. (Late night...) (Creep...) Everybody connected... Same damn Late Night Creep.
