One Eye Open

(альбом: Minute To Midnight - 2021)

Everybody try'na say they woke
Early birds never sleeping, nope
I been on a bender since the end of last year
And ain't seen 'em on the low
I been saying something every show
Kept it real, read any quote
Ask around, and inquire 'bout me
They gon' all say the same thing, don't you know?
When I'm leaving my mind, body and my soul
And they still couldn't find me sitting told
Folks try'na blind me when it's cold
I ain't taking too kindly to the trolls
Moving in on the end game til' my third eye finally sees
No matter the cage, I'm finally free
As long as one eye blink when I sleep

We won't lie down, not now
We keep one eye open
Lie down, not now, get loud
We keep one eye open
We won't lie down, not now
We keep one eye open
Lie down, not now, get loud
We keep one eye open now

Woah, woah, woah
One eye open
Woah, woah, woah
One eye open now
Woah, woah, woah
One eye open
Woah, woah, woah
One eye open now

Clocking in to take a bullet, go ahead and pull it
I just really wanna see it coming
You ain't sneaking up on me with nothing
Facing drama, you won't see us running
Started backing into old school
Studied up on my bar game
Didn't wear like old shoes
Still here to see the guard change
Life is driving in the hard lane
Off road, no arcade
Sharks swimming in the dark waves
You don't gamble you don't parlay
I've been gambling to part ways
From a game that got me sautéd
So diminished that it's bound to pivot just to swing it back our way

We won't lie down, not now
We keep one eye open
Lie down, not now, get loud
We keep one eye open
We won't lie down, not now
We keep one eye open
Lie down, not now, get loud
We keep one eye open now

Woah, woah, woah
One eye open
Woah, woah, woah
One eye open now
Woah, woah, woah
One eye open
Woah, woah, woah
One eye open now
