skyzoo & the other guys - 100 to one lyrics

[verse 1]
middle of ‘84 when opportunity heard me
said she had to sift through the crowd but she preferred me
dying for attention but living in it concerned me
waited me out, wanted to see if it would discourage me
almost, but shout out to patience first and foremost
gave me more time to do away with my morals
like “f+ck am i to do with these?”, used to hide behind them in the line of scrutiny
it wasn’t new to me that i can change all this
i just needed a lane i could play in accordance with, wade in the water sh+t
god’s gonna trouble the waves when all the water hit
i just need enough for this pot that i can boil with
so dear god, save me an ounce or two
whether we talking water or we talking what powder do
blasphemy right, but sh+t i’m still asking you like
“we can even all of these odds from what massa’ was like”, for real
[hook]
‘cause there’s money here to be made though
devils pull up in plain clothes
black dreams with these anglos
it’s best to act like you ain’t know
(repeat 2x)

[verse 2]
avi told me be grateful
my umi told me to keep the gate closed
leave whatever’s in the streets from outta this safe home
that i built with these same hands that kept your plate full
i cleaned my plate then took her car
to see avi and convince him that what i put in a jar
could have me back here tomorrow copping double
these pebbles became a goldmine under that rubble
and nah i’m not the same kid coming here begging you for a couple grams
re+ing up off of singles is hard to understand
reed gets it, money is money and won’t a soul see it different, and i ain’t mean to pivot
but yo if lee doesn’t get sn+tched, mugshot attached
then i wouldn’t have been on their radar as a “perhaps”
like “perhaps he can be the mule that we can feed this through
he seems like he the type to keep free from the news”
but lee was doing me a favor, after like 20 others
i was the only child who naturally wanted brothers
there was lee and then another, shout to mrs. hamilton
kev’ already was who he was, you couldn’t manage him
my motto forever is “the closer you stand together the harder it is to see who you standing with”
it’s funny how kane being away, left kev running free with cocaine leading the way to his name
seeing a grave
look at life, one kane could’ve stopped the other
and i f+cked around and dropped my brother
accidents with purpose, judas is never judas on the surface
same apply to reed but my deed on this purchase
is a weekly occurrence off an invisible contract
my gun tucked and my arms back, i’m comfortable now, but not at all
they say the room echoes the more that you got it all
my mama said her worst day was when she got a call
saying i’m in a cage, make a lion out a panther k!lling how he was raised
county blues will turn a king to a dot on a page
and my temporary fear was just hiding my rage, for real
[hook]
‘cause there’s money here to be made though
devils pull up in plain clothes
black dreams with these anglos
it’s best to act like you ain’t know
(repeat 2x)

[verse 3]
south central calamity
water to wine should you go hand to hand with me
look like the same hands that wanted to abandon me
but all was forgiven the moment that you ran to me
run like the numbers they throwing at us for counting more
where less on the scale lead to them kicking down your door
the crown yours when they’re creating laws on you
and the diamonds embedded in it turn into th+rns on you, like
five grams of rock, 500 grams of powder
the line in the sand and who’s standing over ours
the tipping point is you copping for your survival
and all of that privilege falls beside you
idols become rivals, and then they can turn into your partner
like them so called villanueva martyr’s
but olso is solid, and we learned to be cool
but his b+tch is the reason my three turned into two
like if my foot’s on the line and i’m spencer haywood
i’m just a kid from outside that’s tryna make good
college dreaming i was beaming, tryna play good
but sh+t i jumped off the steps because it pay good, simple as that cuz
[hook]
‘cause there’s money here to be made though
devils pull up in plain clothes
black dreams with these anglos
it’s best to act like you ain’t know
(repeat 2x)
