"Paid Off" lyrics

"Paid Off"

Dirty cop Rothschild trading
Heavy lifting sunshine faded
Diamonds they don't really do the cuttin'
Bloody noses keep on runnin'

Stacked cash gettin' flashed for a favor
Break your back, they ain't bringing you a savior
Guarantees, they don't guarantee nothing
Cold hands do the hustling

We are out here tired of being used
They're out here hiding from the truth
And we all pay the cost
When they're all paid off
When they're all paid off

Hiding out high-class haven
Sinking these streets worth saving
With every color crime that they're covering
The silence, the sick and the suffering

Time flies when you're last to the bread line
How long till your mom reads the headline
Guarantees, they don't guarantee nothing
Cold hands do the shuffling

We are out here tired of being used
They're out here hiding from the truth
And we all pay the cost
When they're all paid off
When they're all paid off

We've got to fight before we die
We've got to find a way inside
We've got to fight, we've got to fight

We are out here tired of being used
They're out here hiding from the truth
And we all pay the cost
When they're all paid off
We all pay the cost
Yeah we all pay the cost
When they're all paid off
All paid off
