Bail Money

(album: Angels & Outlaws - 2019)

If I could just come up with this bail money
I swear amma stay outta jail
I swear amma stay outta jail
If I could just come up with this bail money

If I could just come up with this bail money
I swear Amma stay outta jail
I swear Amma stay outta jail
If I could just come up with this bail money

What's the price of a soul? I was told that I sold it
Gonna buy it back when the bail is posted
This flame was lit and I can't control it
My hands is folded but the guns are loaded, uh
Stay devoted
Even though I know they had different motive
I switched the focus
Running low on these second chances
Sing a sad song while the devil dancing
Pale moon n' some firewater
Mama put me out
Cause imma firestarter
Ain't taking deals
I hire trial lawyers
I bought the dream
Now I'm supplying orders
Got the holy ghost n' a roll of quarters
Wash my dirty laundry in the muddy waters
Nobody's bitch
N' somebody's father
I'm gonna win the fight
If I can just beat the charges

If I could just come up with this bail money
I swear amma stay outta jail
I swear amma stay outta jail
If I could just come up with this bail money

If I could just come up with this bail money
I swear amma stay outta jail
I swear amma stay outta jail
If I could just come up with this bail money

Ah Haha huh huh
Uh
Found my flame In one of the coldest moments
I was at my lowest started quoting Roman's
Yeah the grass is greener I can smell the roses
But it's full of serpents and some lonely rodents, uh
Know I'm chosen but the door is closing
Moments ago but then the judge was spoken
No emotion cause my heart was stolen n' my spirit broken
Old wounds reopened
I'm choking on my own words of wisdom
Trying hard to be optimistic
But the bullets mine n' they checked ballistics
Got a point to prove but I guess I missed it
This path I choose yeah I know I picked it
Ball was in my court guess I kicked it
A second chance if I could just get it I swear I learned my lesson
Next time it'll be different

If I could just come up with this bail money
I swear amma stay outta jail
I swear amma stay outta jail
If I could just come up with this bail money

If I could just come up with this bail money
I swear amma stay outta jail
I swear amma stay outta jail
If I could just come up with this bail money

Yeah I swear these streets got crooked police
Just up around the corner and they looking for me
Hear the knockers watching so watch who you be talking to
Get a block so hot, cuz' they keep it on lock
Bighead Politicians all up in our business
We ain't trumped 'em charges getting paid for us in prison
The judge reply let drink your blood straight out ya broken heart
So watch the way you move for you go n' catch a charge
