《Tip The Scale(Explicit)》歌词

[00:00:00] The Roots - Tip the Scale

[00:00:14] Homicide or suicide

[00:00:16] Heads or tails

[00:00:17] Some think life is a living hell

[00:00:21] Some live life just living well

[00:00:24] I live life tryna tip the scale

[00:00:27] My way my way

[00:00:34] My way my way

[00:00:39] Yo I’m always early

[00:00:41] I never take off cause I got a job

[00:00:44] Rob Peter to pay Paul

[00:00:46] Now I realize it’s the winner that takes all

[00:00:49] Do what I gotta do because I can’t take loss

[00:00:52] Picture me living life as if I’m some animal

[00:00:55] That consumes its own dreams like I’m a cannibal

[00:00:59] I won’t accept failure unless it’s mechanical

[00:01:02] But still the alcohol mixed with the botanical

[00:01:05] I guess I be referred to the owners manual full of loaners

[00:01:09] Full of all the homeless throwaways and the stoners

[00:01:12] Soldiers of the streets with 8th grade diplomas

[00:01:16] And the world awaiting their shoulders as a bonus

[00:01:19] Look let he without sin live without sin

[00:01:22] Until then I’ll be doing dirty jobs like swamp men

[00:01:26] Counting the faces of those that might have been

[00:01:29] It’s like living that life but I won’t live that life again

[00:01:33] Homicide or suicide

[00:01:34] Heads or tails

[00:01:36] Some think life is a living hell

[00:01:39] Some live life just living well

[00:01:41] I live life tryna tip the scale

[00:01:45] My way my way

[00:01:51] My way my way

[00:01:58] Lot of n*ggas go to prison

[00:01:59] How many come out Malcolm X

[00:02:01] I know I'm not

[00:02:02] Sh*t can't even talk about the rest

[00:02:04] Famous last words: "You under arrest"

[00:02:07] Will I get popped tonight It's anybody's guess

[00:02:11] I guess a n*gga need to stay cunning

[00:02:14] I guess when the cops comin' need to start runnin'

[00:02:17] I won't make the same mistakes from my last run in

[00:02:21] You either done doing crime now or you done in

[00:02:24] I got a brother on the run and one in

[00:02:28] Wrote me a letter he said when you comin'

[00:02:30] Sh*t man I thought the goal's to stay out

[00:02:34] Back against the wall then shoot your way out

[00:02:37] Gettin' money's a style that never plays out

[00:02:40] 'Til you end up boxin' your stash money's paid out

[00:02:43] The scales of justice ain't equally weighed out

[00:02:46] Only two ways out digging tunnels or digging graves out

[00:02:50] Homicide or suicide

[00:02:51] Heads or tails

[00:02:53] Some think life is a living hell

[00:02:56] Some live life just living well

[00:02:59] I live life tryna tip the scale

[00:03:03] My way my way

[00:03:09] My way my way
