Double Or Nothing Lyrics

[Verse 1: B.o.B]
They say the good die young
I guess I’ll be here forever

A step away from the edge
And the edge is closer than ever

Skeletons in my closet
I’ll never live to regret them

So if you looking for mercy
You came in the wrong direction

I came from a different league
Bred from a different breed

Vengeance and demolition is mixed and twisted with greed
Oh, the irony of a bleeding heart while it beats
‘Cause in the heart of the city
The blood is shed in the streets

[Verse 2: Big Boi]
Shed in the streets, my semi-autos geek to the beat
And I’m gone skip to the loo, my darling
No surrender, never retreat
I’m never gonna see the light at the end of the tunnel
Only darkness, it’s just me guarding a heartless partner
Bull’s eyein' targets
So fuck the devil’s cartel, cause I’m just slitting throats
Just like a table full of spades players
We taking out the joker – ers

Got explosives and their big ole bag of guns
‘Cause it’s faster and more furious when I'm done, run!

[Hook]
It’s double or nothing
They’re firing from the dark
The dark (the dark)
The dark (the dark)
They’re firing from the dark
It’s double or nothing
They tryina go to war
Now see we creepin' tight
We keep it in the coleslaw, boy

[Verse 3: B.o.B]
Fact, I look like slipping
Not a chance, man
Got triggers on the clock
Bitch it’s hammer time

On the part of the map where anything can happen
You either end up strapping
Or end up pushing dandelion
So call an ambulance
Uh, I paint a picture that cameras can’t
I got ammo for your entertainment, change the channel, champ
‘Cause if we have to turn it up we got ample amps

[Verse 4: Big Boi]
Yeah, and the cattle ranch with the beef lovers
We brothers don’t take no shit
Like septic tanks and toilet seat covers

Meat lovers but only chicken and sea food
Stay feeding on bottom feeders ’cause they B-food, I’m hungry
Matter of fact I think I’m starving, it’s the army
But never lonely, army of two, me and my homie B.o.B-bing
Weaving, it’s the killing season
We leave them partly breathing
So bring the extraction team and ghost
[Hook]

[Verse 5: B.o.B]
The heat of the summit, the height of the storm
The belly of the beast, the stomach, the fires are warm
The higher the prices, the higher the warning
Couldn’t dodge them bullets if you hired a army
Whenever a soldier dies, a fighter is born
I used to think this type of lifestyle was the bomb
Until that wire went on me
I never grabbed a gun until they fired one on me
It’s nothing like surviving a gauntlet

[Verse 6: Big Boi]
Survival of the fittest and boy, you’ll fit to lead
I make you bleed your own blood, visit emergency
Room, they send you straight out to the morgue
So you lay down in that bag where you eternally snore
You see the fat lady done sung that song
Like a change gone come, ’cause boy you headed to the funeral home
And now the only way you’re coming back
Is if you reset the game, consoled and that’s whack

[Hook]
