Testo Stakes Are High - Chase Martin
Testo della canzone Stakes Are High (Chase Martin), tratta dall'album Stakes Are High
The stakes are high but if I play my cards right, then who knows
Maybe I can turn this nothing into something, something to think about
I'm on the grind but somehow I'm just barely skating by
Can't afford to take my time
The stakes are high but if I play my cards right, then who knows
Maybe I can turn this nothing into something, something to think about
I'm on the grind but somehow I'm just barely skating by
Can't afford to take my time
The weight of the world carries the pillar of success
Ain't been through hard times
Then you don't know how it feel to be blessed
No working part time, I clock in before the sun up
I set the bar high and see who I can strive to come up
Backflipping my way to a bag, no acrobat
But I bent over backwards just to get the shit that I have
Slept on the floor, no mattress, before I had an address
I was at Sosas' crib on the Ave, like six months and a half
Barely scraping by, a couple dollars here and there, what it take to get high?
Don't know what I'm doing, say a prayer to the man in the sky
And if he hear you, he can answer you clearly or not
I guess I'm here for a while
The stakes are high but if I play my cards right, then who knows
Maybe I can turn this nothing into something, something to think about
I'm on the grind but somehow I'm just barely skating by
Can't afford to take my time
The stakes are high but if I play my cards right, then who knows
Maybe I can turn this nothing into something, something to think about
I'm on the grind but somehow I'm just barely skating by
Can't afford to take my time
No disrespect to the people at the top, don't try to slit my neck
Not stepping on no toes unless they frame me as a civil threat
You see how they did E.S., they scared of our intellect
Oh, who knew? Go figure that, been this way for how long?
And every year it just get it worse, it seem to pile on
Don't know how much it take for me to wake and put this smile on
Put 'em down the road I walk, they couldn't last a mile on
Can't trust no one so I might die alone
Heart froze, solid, ice cold, I don't mind though
I ain't been normal since high school
I'm too lost and don't know how to find hope
I know, hard pill to swallow
The stakes are high but if I play my cards right, then who knows
Maybe I can turn this nothing into something, something to think about
I'm on the grind but somehow I'm just barely skating by
Can't afford to take my time
The stakes are high but if I play my cards right, then who knows
Maybe I can turn this nothing into something, something to think about
I'm on the grind but somehow I'm just barely skating by
Can't afford to take my time
