Close One (feat. CJ Fly)

Anybody wanna take a look at my life?

I swear they only ever see the highlights

There's been a couple times I could've done right

It's funny now, but looking at an old man in hindsight

That was a close one

That was a close one

Things could've got real bad that day

That was a close one

That was a close one

Things could've got real bad

We just left the house, party in the hood

It was lit as fuck

Then a van pulled up throwing bottles at us

Then I heard (What, what, run)

Leaping over fences through driveways

Man, how did this night turn sideways?

Damn, it was me, Boomer and a few other homies

I wish I never had these Tims on

They jumped out the back with a baseball bat

Life was the only thing I had a grip on

I'm out of breath, I need new lungs

All I could hear, where are you from?

I'd like to hear where your money at

All I could hear, where your shoes from?

Ooh, say what, say what, say what?

Wait so that's all planned?

Now we looking for each other

Did they really get a brother?

Got me (Praying)

It could've been worse

That's just another Friday

We never learned

Saturday coming up (Next)

That was a close one

That was a close one

Things could've got real bad that day

That was a close one

That was a close one

Things could've got real bad

Party in the Murder Mills

Ask my parents, they say no

Plan it out, me and other lads were sneaking there on the low

Almost died thinking, damn, never know thick hair

Hot head, didn't care, had to go

Shout to Desmond, let's survive

We was having liquor problems, so I had to open fire

Had us running for our lives

My **** Kay was drinking way too much

But I was never in a place to judge

If you know me, then you know I never gave two fucks

I said, we out here steady, ain't gon' rush

I'm riding with you, Thugger, ain't gon' run

I wasn't worrying that they shoot us

Asking what I don't want to straight through touch

We're gonna slide, you know you ain't too tough

Whatever happens gon' happen

You don't bring the strap then you just get caught lacking

That was a close one

That was a close one

Things could've got real bad that day

That was a close one

That was a close one

Things could've got real bad

Red and blue lights in my rearview

Yeah, police knocking at my door

We don't hear you

Went and had a party out in Central

Moor's Nest was the venue

We was locking up, popping sans shoes

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

The party ended so we had to dip

On foot, it was me, Reginald and some chick

On her way out of Saint Louis

Going over fences like I'm Babe Ruth

Caught slipping down at Lovelock

And they're seeing blue

They try to jack us for his shoes

Yelling out C's up

Tell they realize

None us wasn't cousins so they hit us with the jeepers

That was a close one

That was a close one

Things could've got real bad that day

That was a close one

That was a close one

Things could've got real bad

What's really good?

Yes, today was a bad day

Man, shit really hit the fan, hey

What about tonight?

If they pull up at the lights

Gang signs out the van, hey

What's really good?

Yes, today was a bad day

Man, shit really hit the fan, hey

What about tonight?

If they pull up at the lights

Gang signs out the van
