Cold Served

Ooh-ooh-ooh yeah

Ooh-ooh-ooh

They pushed me to the corner

Tried to take what was mine

Every week a new debt

Every night a new line

Now the game is over

I'm what they made of me

And I'm loving the trade

Verse 1

I'm a survivor and I'm proud to be

Standing where they never thought I'd be

Watch me take the scraps they left and build a legacy

Stacked it up in silence while they slept so comfortably

I play this game to win

Outlasted all the fair-weather men

Now they lay down with their own regrets

This new life is something

Cool composure walking off like nothing

Chorus

They tried to bleed me dry

Now the tables turn

Walked through the fire

Watched the city burn

(Where did you go)

Used to be the victim

Now I write the play

Count the paper

Sweep the ruins all away

Verse 2

I remember when they knocked

Demanding what I never owned

Left me hollow broke and stunned

Treading water all alone

So I learned the rhythm of the street

Studied every crooked beat

Took the lessons they refused to teach

Turned their poison into my release

No more payments

No more walking on thin ice

Sent those vultures scattering

Into the cold night

It started out as fighting

Now it's second nature to me

Standing in the quiet

Right after the storm drinks free

Chorus

They tried to bleed me dry

Now the tables turn

Walked through the fire

Watched the city burn

(Fire burn smoke rise)

Used to be the victim

Now I write the play

Count the paper

Sweep the ruins all away

Hook

Got the sauce in my stride

Silent tide

Cold served

Watch me ride

Outro

Keep it casual

Got the sauce

Mm-hmm

Ooh-ooh-ooh yeah

Cold served
