And the story goes like this
Everything went numb for the money and the guns
If everything goes smooth then you'll walk away a rich man”
So it begins, everybody walks in
Could this be the way or the day that the underdog wins?
I think not, so I bet on the Feds
Because the black hat men never win in the end
Ski mask, check, sawed off, check
Guilty conscience, fear of death, check, check, check
Everything went numb when he stumbled upon
What he thought was going to be another means to the end
Silence, sirens
It all went down like his nightmare the night before
I don't want to hear, I don't want to be near
I do what I got to do just to keep my nose clean
The story doesn't end here
Don't fear for our hero ain't near the end, my friend
Let's take it back to how it all began
With a proposition and proposition starts with a capital P
“Or at least for me", is what he said to himself
But himself ain't a lot when he's got nothing left
Of what was once a man, loved and loving
He took that trip that turns something to nothing
Right and wrong
There's not a lot a difference when
You're singing that poor man's song
And that song it goes just a little like this
Ski mask, check, sawed off, check
Guilty conscience, fear of death, check, check, check
Everything went numb when he stumbled upon
What he thought was going to be another means to the end
Silence, sirens
It all went down like his nightmare the night before
I don't want to hear, I don't want to be near
I do what I got to do just to keep my nose clean
