Good Friend

She waits, he works, they live at night

Low pay, no way to stay polite

Too late to change the state of mind

Lights out, black on, too hard to find

Hops in his car, that's a bad blessing

Long night ahead, now she's mad stressing

Time's on their side, but they're still shakin'

Gun in their hands, money for the taking

Then he feels her touch, it becomes all too much

Don't say goodbye, say hello to my good friend

See, he's all I know

Run and hide, ain't no show, this is a hold-up

Hope you just know that we steal to survive

She prays to change, they wisely would

How could something so bad fund their livelihood

He knows it's tough but it's for their good

Left their morals out to burn like it's firewood

And in their hard days have each other still

Moving through motions like they know the drill

So when it comes to fate, they don't have a say

Grown up with these roles that they have to play

Rents late as hell but they're side-steppin'

Hearts on their sleeves to conceal weapons

Break down the door but nobody's waking

Head for the drawer, money for the taking

Then he feels her touch, it becomes all too much

Don't say goodbye, say hello to my good friend

See, he's all I know

Run and hide (yeah), ain't no show, this is a hold-up

Hope you just know that we steal to survive

[x2]

But if this ends in ruin

It could have happened anywhere

Can't help but feeling human

Looked up at Wall Street millionaires

[x2]

Don't say goodbye, say hello to my good friend

See, he's all I know

Run and hide (yeah), ain't no show, this is a hold-up

Hope you just know that we steal to survive
