The Four Owls - Pay The Price lyrics

Now if you can't take advice
Then you pay the price
Wanna be on top? Well
You better work day and night
Take your time, take control
You can seize your fate
Don't waste time on those
Who don't appreciate
Tryna impress who? they don't
Really share your pain
Plus, it's only really worth what
You're prepared to pay
Don't give your soul away
Don't put a price on it
Got to be happy with the life you live
Why is it rappers bang great groupies and
They think they're heavy
But, you're hitting chicks every
Other rapper hit already
Cool, but if you're sliding in them raw dog
Then you're bound to pay the price
When yo dick falls off
Learn that lesson and know
That you better plan
Some wanna stay young live in never-neverland
Slap crooks 'round their face
After we sever hands
Pay the price or we take
And you won't get it back

You can pay the price in more ways
The money act
Fuck, I come to stab you in that back
Sonny is that gully
Take you off the map like some countries
For the right sums
Some people 'round the world
Would do just anything
Getting disrespectful with their bodies
What they're peddling
Some will find love while others
Only got the wedding ring
Welcoming the devil in when
They're sniffing Ketamine
Think it don't affect them 'til
Dependence brings the evidence
Benevolence is evident
Not mythical like Nephilim
Always having arguments
But no one ever settles them
Caught up in the crossfire
Cause they're meddling, now paralysed
Drink and drive, crash and die
Pay the price with their life
Think about the actions twice
So the outcome satisfies like a
We spaz when you glad to pay the price
Represent the realness in my rhymes
Don't chat a bag of lies
Cause that shit will backfire like
Shotting drugs in camera sight

If you wanna be a bad man or rogue
(then you pay the price)
Following dreams of fool's gold
(then you pay the price)
Try to clutch something that you can't hold
(then you pay the price!
You pay the price! Then you pay the price)
If you're getting too big for your boots
(then you pay the price)
Never man up and want to tell the truth
(then you pay the price)
Always coming up with an excuse
(then you pay the price!
You pay the price! Then you pay the price)

Heads or tails, but we ain't gamblin'
Paint the entrance with these ramblings
Life's a bitch, rescue the damsel
Or lose her and start lamping
Get overgrown, start trampling
The underdogs will make you pay the cost
Hold you to ransom
If you know you fronting, why you jumping?
All I'm saying is know your
Worth and know your function
Overestimate, leave you over
Before you've spoken
Then they won't let you through the door to
The venue like all of your money's broken
Now watch and get your
Spot taken, this world, she's not patient
Kick you out like another military occupation
Chopping out your stupid statements
Like an operation
Holding you accountable like
You're under investigation
Decapitation, came for the brain and heads
The entrance fee was giving a
Fuck less for the bread
Didn't bring my wallet, letting them off
Feed on the
Walk the tightrope between what I
Think and what I've said

Yo, welcome to the shop called
Life where everything is priced
Regrets are like receipts
You better do your numbers right
I had a customer that loved to shoot heroin
Now I can't let him in
He's in the window staring in
I kept telling him he need
To reap the details
Think you're gang related tryna to
Work with fish scales
Struck by the money spell
Giving into pressure
Till you're robbed and tied up in
Your flat where they left ya
My next customer was consuming
With the quickness
His dad flashing cash tryna
Buy my whole business
The risk is trying to find
A price for forgiveness when his pops died
He couldn't live like the rich did
It's time to pack up
Turn the closing sign in
The girl with the back up
And the sugar left behind
Mosin', hand holding with the
Money on the mind
Have to tell him real love in
This store, you'll never find, son

Come back tomorrow, we open at 6 o'clock
(OK, I'll see you tomorrow)

If you wanna be a bad man or rogue
(then you pay the price)
Following dreams of fool's gold
(then you pay the price)
Try to clutch something that you can't hold
(then you pay the price!
You pay the price! Then you pay the price)
If you're getting too big for your boots
(then you pay the price)
Never man up and want to tell the truth
(then you pay the price)
Always coming up with an excuse
(then you pay the price!
You pay the price! Then you pay the price)
