Cops And Robbers

30k stuffed down in my backpack
Lookin at the world from above
You can trick a young girl into anything
If she thinks that's she's doing it for love

Well I'm red-eyed on the red eye
Then I'm headed out to Ojai
Bout to make a cash drop for my man
Trading green for green, this money grows on trees
Tryna harvest it as fast as we can


Pigs get fat and hogs get slaughtered
Don't you end up on the wrong side of the knife
Things get heavy when you're treading water
You can't stay lucky your whole life
Pigs get fat and hogs get slaughtered
You don't wanna have to learn the hard way
Its just a glorified game of cops and robbers
You just hope the robber gets away


The money's good, the friends are fair weathered
If I'd have known what was coming I would've saved better
Sometimes it's hard to see just what's at risk
But if it seems too good to be true, usually it is

Well I'm red-eyed on the red-eye
Wond'rin if I've run my luck dry
I haven't heard from you in three days
These days my paranoia leads me into a spiral
And I can hear the words my pops used to say


Pigs get fat and hogs get slaughtered
Don't you end up on the wrong side of the knife
Things get heavy when you're treading water
You can't stay lucky your whole life
Pigs get fat and hogs get slaughtered
You don't wanna have to learn the hard way
It's just a glorified game of cops and robbers
You just hope the robber gets away


A bad dream came to me and I woke up in a terrible sweat
This game's been good to me but I think I'm in over my head
I don't mind heading back out west for the reup
But a dreadful premonition has been keeping me up
We should pull out of this thing as soon as we can 
I wanna settle our debts when the next drop lands.

He said, 
You've got the whole thing wrong we should just double down
I've got it all figured out, yeah, we own this town
Dirty lawyers, outlaw friends
What kind of fool would want this to end?


Pigs get fat, this hog got slaughtered
He wound up on the wrong side of the knife
Things got heavy, he was treading water
He couldn't stay lucky his whole life
Pigs get fat and hogs get slaughtered
You don't wanna have to learn the hard way
It's just a glorified game of cops and robbers
You just hope the robber gets away
