[Intro] We made it out We made it out [Verse 1] Late night drive, the city was empty The phone was off, the lights was on dim Pulled up to the spot to meet my man But the spot was different than the spot we picked Two cars by the curb that I didn't recognize Two men by the wall that I didn't know Started to walk back to my own car And I heard the steps come up behind me slow Said I wasn't lookin' for no kind of trouble Said I'm just here to meet a friend of mine He said the friend you lookin' for ain't here no more And I said I think that's my cue to go [Chorus] We made it out We made it out tonight We made it out By the skin of the night We made it out And the city kept on rollin' by We made it out We made it out alive [Verse 2] Got in my car, kept my hands on the wheel Pulled away slow like nothin' was real Called my homie said you home or you out He said he was out, said where you at Told him the cross streets, told him stay close He said he was already two minutes away Came up beside me at the next red light Said follow me, took the back way home [Chorus] We made it out We made it out tonight We made it out By the skin of the night We made it out And the city kept on rollin' by We made it out We made it out alive [Bridge] And the road kept goin' And the night kept holdin' And the homie kept rollin' And the city kept lettin' us through And I thought about the things That I almost lost And I thought about the things That I almost was [Verse 3] Pulled up to my place, lights was already on My woman saw the look on my face when I walked in She said baby what happened, said tell me what's wrong I said nothin' happened, just a long ride home She said come sit with me, let me hold you for a minute I said yeah, I just need a minute She said okay, didn't ask me twice And I sat there thinkin' bout the night that almost was [Final Chorus] We made it out We made it out tonight We made it out By the skin of the night We made it out And the city kept on rollin' by We made it out We made it out alive We made it out alive [Outro] We made it out We made it out
