The Lottery

(album: Free The Geezer - 2019)

Yo, trust

I wouldn't have it any other way not now
Got knocked down but never knocked out
Came back with a more original sound
Got 'em in the palm of my hand right now
A rogue past man try a bevvy of stem
Word on the road is he can't be found
Calm is a funny old, funny old thing
Listen to the day, keep hold of your gram
Ask West Ham
You're better with a devil that you know
Got a little treble on the go
If it all comes in, probably have a Henny and a Coke
Buy a little telly for my folks

That's how it goes
If you've had a right little touch or you've had a bump in the road
Don't look back, gotta keep moving, bro
The rest of the world don't care but...

They say there's rules to this game
And some say it pours when it rains
But life's way much more than a saying
So I've been taking it day by day
They say there's rules to this game
And some say it pours when it rains
But life's way much more than a saying
So let's just take it all day by
Take it all day by day

We came back from the dead straight into a deal
Do you know how that feels? Surreal
When you can't feel your other income
That's when it gets real
All those goals, affirmations, books on manifestation
Motivational speakers
Let's do it ourselves
We'll never make any old shit that sells
And we got dropped
Came back stronger
Sold out the forum
Phone rang, money got longer
Ain't 2015 no more, we know what's behind that door
Do it for the local boys
Young Gs and the old school boys
Talk a lot of reddies but I'm here for the love
Went out when we knew when to give it up
You know what, if it wernt for the support we got
Might have just left it there
We picked ourselves up, dusted ourselves off
And look what we achieved last year
Took our day ones out to Ibiza
None of them spent a pound
And then we got back, dusted ourselves off
Turned our house upside down

They say there's rules to this game
And some say it pours when it rains
But life's way much more than a saying
So I've been taking it day by day
They say there's rules to this game
And some say it pours when it rains
But life's way much more than a saying
So let's just take it all day by
Take it all day by day

I wouldn't have it any other way than this
Took 10 years for a next up list
Feels like we live through a thousand lives
But spoke our truth and it always hits
Ones we loved, ones we kissed
Pals who got left out of the mix
Tell you right now, if I had one wish
Do it all again and I'll do it like this
Do it all again, never do it like them
Cruise right through with a few good men
I know what a drako signs gonna do one
I'm telling you that one from a friend's worth 10
Just when it's right, that's when it started
You come alive when times are the hardest
The right path's right there, do you want it?
We do it properly, we won the lottery

You lose then you win
We go again
Water off a duck's back
Go and have a swim
If it ends, it begins
Go have a blem
Water off a duck's back
Go and have a swim
Yeah, you lose then you win
We go again
Water off a duck's back
Go and have a swim
If it ends, it begins
Go have a blem
Water off a duck's back
Go and have a swim

They say there's rules to this game
And some say it pours when it rains
But life's way much more than a saying
So I've been taking it day by day
They say there's rules to this game
And some say it pours when it rains
But life's way much more than a saying
So let's just take it all day by
Take it all day by day
