Joe Budden - Make A Deal lyrics

(Yeah) Ransom: Who knew that lucifer was cutting side deals I know he's coming for me so I keep my eyes pealed Although my situation is never really ideal If I don't find another way then maybe God will And he ain't got no trophies for the runner up The escalator is going down, but I'm running up They told me I was goin' be nothing but a lost cause n***a you been down a couple years so how you coming up? How you stop a n***a from leaving after the love is lost? How you stop a n***a from bleeding after the blood is lost? Yeah, I got a couple of demons, don't get no one involved Yeah, I got some goals I'm achieving n***a I want it all! The money's piling, I'm diving in it .............. My stomach's piling I gotta get it, I'm coming for it (damn) That's why I choose you can know how I feel Guess I'm just a little confused, I don't know if it's real Is it real? Chorus: If I only could, make a deal with God Get him to swap our places I'd be running up that road I'd be running up that hill I'd be running up that building If I only could Budden: I'd ask God how I last in this Nah I'd rather kick it with him cuz to ask him sh**, our demons blast from this Pick his brain and try to see what his pa**ion is Know with me I debate whatever is rationist Product of a hell, but I'm knowledgeable myself I'd trade me for the business that is hospitals and jails Cuz' there's profits involved when they nail a convict You create these diseases then sell us the fix Or was it just to hinder me? Every inch of me would make.... great sense to me but then he try to censor me But he can have that, that ain't even what I'm mad at I would give him a set back if he would give me Zac back Let's trade shoes I tell'em mine are hot If I made in his likeness would he really mind a swap? And if he did one day if I would feel like I put faith in some sh** that ain't real it gives me chill Chorus Ransom: How could you make a deal without the devil in it? Some people make mistakes then say the devil did it Life is like a game cuz there's different levels in it You won't read the board if you're in court and you don't get to quit it They say it's all metaphysics, why you lying if you ain't never did it? If I don't walk through the fire than who the f** will? I think I'm on the right path it's all uphill Budden Or could it be the right path wrong time? Right thought, wrong mind? Sure succes, long grind They say even when he's late that he's always on time We should even switch places so he sees what's on mine Cuz it's heavier lately, the water's coming down, but the levy won't break me And this world as is I think you better sedade me I'm just having sick thoughts cuz you ain't met with me lately Chorus Outro: I'd be running up that road (uuuuuh) If I only could I wanna thank you...for everything Grace and mercy I appreciate it...help me
