Before we start, let's get one thing straight
Things are great but they're not that great
Hell-bent on acting like it's no big deal
You ain't accounting for the way I feel
You say tomorrow, well I want it today
I say we keep it and you throw it away
Walk in the shadow, step on into the light
Push me too far, well I may just bite
Another dollar, another day gone
We can't afford another thing going wrong
Just let me handle this to my own design
You got the money, I got nothing but time
I ain't your mother and I sure ain't your friend
Taken together we can win in the end
A matter of conscience, a matter of trust
A chance to cash it out before we go bust
