High Rollers

Lyrics

Speed of life, fast,
 it's like walkin' barefoot over broken glass
 It's like, jumpin' rope on a razor blade
 All lightning quick decisions are made
 Lifestyle plush,
 females rush
 This high profile personality,
 who earns his pay illegally
 Professional liar,
 schoolboys admire
 Young girls desire,
 very few live to retire
 Cash flow extreme,
 dress code supreme,
 vocabulary obscene
 Definition-street player,
 you know what I mean
 The high rollers People of the city, stop foolin' yourself
 Crime rules the streets, who the hell else
 All the police have gone out to play
 'Cause for enough cold cash they'll look the other way
 Look at the cars as they go by
 Benzes, Ferraris, trucks up high
 Beepers connecting players with big-time deals
 With all of this technology who needs to steal
 Just live a life of leisure every night and day
 And you're livin' proof that crime does pay
 Your life is dangerous and reckless
 You eat fly guys and girls for breakfast
 You're a titan of the nuclear age
 Your muscles flex with a Uzi or 12 gauge
 And you love the game, that's why you boast
 'Cause you're high priced, high speed, high post, high rollin'
 Now when I say high rollers,
 I mean the best
 Forget the half-steppers,
 eject the rest
 'Cause these high ranked officials of our city streets
 Make millions all triggered by electric beeps
 They dress in diamonds and rope chains
 They got the blood of SCARFACE runnin' through their veins
 Silk shirts,
 leather suits,
 hair always fresh
 Eelskin boots,
 large hearts,
 though their sizes vary
 Bankrolls that take 2 pockets to carry
 Cruisin' in their 500 Benz Sedan
 With their systems peaked out rockin' PUSHER MAM
 Yes, their fashion's high and hard to beat
 They buy their GUCCI at GUCCI'S not the swapmeet
 Eat very well, much clientele
 Whatever you need, they probably sell
 The high rollers Oh yes, I'm here to tell you females also roll
 Drive the same cars, somethimes wear more gold
 Cold as an igloo, or hot as a flame
 They'll shake ya, break ya and you won't know their name
 Gangsters to the max,
 all marks will be taxed
 These girls drive Ferraris, not Cadillacs
 Respect is demanded, most men don't understand it
 Till they peep the huge bank that these girls have landed
 They're junkies for fun, love life on the run
 If things get hot, they will pull a gun
 Prey on the lame, no shame to the game
 They all seek power, fuck the fame
 The high rollers Now radio stations probably won't play
 This record because of the things I say
 They'll say I'm glamorizing the hustlin' hood
 And a record like this can do no good
 But I'm not here to tell you right or wrong
 I don't know which side of the law you belong
 Yes, the game has flash, but sometimes hurts
 Behind any mistake, hard times lurks
 And jail's not your only problem, though it may seem
 You just may die by a barrage from an M-16
 But to each his own, choose the mobile phone
 Choose the tailored suit, the luxury home
 You'll never get caught, 'cause you got nerves of ice
 And you're much smarter than those crooks on Miami Vice
 Right
 You wanta be a high roller
 High roller
