Twenty To One

(album: We're All Alone In This Together - 2021)

Look

Twenty-to-one, look at the time, it's twenty-to-one
I'm on the ride with the guys, and we're looking for him
If we catch him it's twenty to one
Feds behind me, driving a beamer
Odds on my freedom are twenty-to-one
I make a call and getting in touch
Twenty-to-one, twenty-to-one, yeah-yeah

Maze in the street
My nigga nearly got done for an AM
He went on the run, he was staying with me
I told my girl that we can't be together
She's crying, that's something I hated to see
Really I struggled to stay on my feet
I'm looking for her and the lady I meet
I go two letters that you're gonna see
If you're someone that want it, the way in the beef
A and the E, playing with me
We send him up to his maker to meet
Where I stay on the street, there's no love, there's no love

Twenty-to-one, look at the time, it's twenty-to-one
I'm on the ride with the guys, and we're looking for him
If we catch him it's twenty to one
Feds behind me, driving a beamer
Odds on my freedom are twenty-to-one
I make a call and getting in touch
Twenty-to-one, twenty-to-one, yeah-yeah
Twenty-to-one, look at the time, it's twenty-to-one
I'm on the ride with the guys, and we're looking for him
If we catch him it's twenty to one
Feds behind me, driving a beamer
Odds on my freedom are twenty-to-one
I make a call and getting in touch
Twenty-to-one, twenty-to-one, yeah-yeah

Man try stick me two months back
Hands on the wheel, so the car don't crash
Run up on me, there's a price to pay
Dawg, I ain't taking card or cash
I really did it with class, no maths
Mind don't matter, when heart don't match
A good girl like Pokémon
Easy to see, but hard to catch
I'm so real that it's hard to cap
I been low, so it's hard to brag
I been hurt, so it's hard to love
Mom needs it, so it's hard to have
Any ride out, I'm good to go
Bros got my back, it's good to know
If she a nine, that's good to see
If she a ten, she's good to roll
Man clout chase, it's tough to watch
Bad friends is tough to drop
'Nuff man tried buy respect
That don't work, 'cause it's tough to cop
Some times it's tough to think
No liver left, it's tough to drink
Through the noise it's tough to hear
Through the pressure, it's tough to live
Through the wire and through the wall
Through the sea and through the earth
Through the fire and through the war
Through the death and through the birth
Through the pleasure and through the pain
Through the drought and through the rain
Through the dark and through the day
Through the love and through the hate

Twenty-to-one, look at the time, it's twenty-to-one
I'm on the ride with the guys, and we're looking for him
If we catch him it's twenty to one
Feds behind me, driving a beamer
Odds on my freedom are twenty-to-one
I make a call and getting in touch
Twenty-to-one, twenty-to-one, yeah-yeah
Twenty-to-one, look at the time, it's twenty-to-one
I'm on the ride with the guys, and we're looking for him
If we catch him it's twenty to one
Feds behind me, driving a beamer
Odds on my freedom are twenty-to-one
I make a call and getting in touch
Twenty-to-one, twenty-to-one, yeah-yeah
