[00:01.47]Composed by:Tommee Profitt/Nate Feuerstein
[00:16.99]Woke up in a bad place
[00:18.56]Should probably get up so I'm not late
[00:20.52]Stared at my phone for the past eight
[00:22.57]Minutes at nothing my head aches
[00:24.48]Bottles empty by the lampshade
[00:26.48]I'm out of Excedrin again great
[00:28.43]Too early to tell but at this rate
[00:30.44]I'm thinkin' this might be a bad day
[00:32.43]I walk out the bedroom my roommate's
[00:34.32]Asleep on the couch with her two-faced
[00:36.56]Boyfriend who lives here but don't pay
[00:38.47]A penny for rent but he still stays
[00:40.53]She says he's broke I'm like "No way"
[00:42.52]Probably sells d**gs but she won't say
[00:44.51]Tell me he dabbles in real estate
[00:46.45]I mean I don't believe it but okay
[00:48.53]Okay pull out the driveway
[00:50.58]Notice my gas tank's on E again well of course it is
[00:53.72]Guess I probably should stop at the gas station
[00:55.78]So I take a right pull up to the pump
[00:57.98]While it's pumpin' I look at my ashtray
[00:59.80]Then remember I need to get cigarettes
[01:01.55]Cigarettes
[01:02.17]Anything that help my mind state
[01:03.86]So I park and walk inside wait
[01:05.58]I should probably get somethin' to drink and eat I guess
[01:07.70]So I find and grab a couple bags of chips
[01:09.72]Where's the candy aisle
[01:10.85]Oh yeah here it is
[01:11.81]Which one should I get
[01:12.88]Should I grab the Starburst or
[01:14.05]Change it up and maybe grab the Twix
[01:15.82]Mm grab the Starburst and I started walkin'
[01:17.90]As I passed the garbage and I reach the fridge
[01:19.69]I hear someone yellin' at the front of the store
[01:22.14]Probably just a homeless guy getting bored
[01:24.13]Probably just a customer whose card
[01:25.88]Didn't work and now he wants to start a war
[01:27.81]Man I can't afford to
[01:29.13]Keep buyin' energy drinks every day I shut the door
[01:31.64]Then turn around and as I'm headin' towards the counter
[01:34.06]With my drink I hear "Hey open up the drawer"
[01:37.25]Crouching on the floor
[01:38.28]Peek around the aisle gun is on the fore-
[01:40.07]Head of the man that's behind the counter
[01:41.70]Now my heart is poundin' and I'm prayin' to the Lord
[01:44.10]I don't die today I can't die today
[01:46.10]I got things to do tryin' not to shake
[01:48.13]Plottin' my escape where's my cellphone at
[01:50.09]Left it in my car icing on the cake
[01:52.07]I start crawling I can hear him yellin'
[01:53.91]"I want every penny I want every dime"
[01:55.67]Yeah
[01:56.23]"Once you finish with the cash
[01:57.42]Open up the bag throw some cigarettes inside"
[01:59.69]Yeah
[02:00.18]"Which ones do you want
[02:01.13]Which ones do you want"
[02:02.14]"I'm not picky give me any kind
[02:03.82]Give me all of 'em yeah just toss 'em in
[02:05.85]Keep it movin' on I'm runnin' low on time and
[02:08.07]I'd advise you to move a little quicker
[02:10.17]Trust me I don't wanna have to pull the trigger
[02:12.15]I done it before it's not a pretty picture
[02:14.07]What you don't believe me
[02:15.09]I'm just playin' with you
[02:16.08]Well no I'm not no I'm not
[02:17.72]Just do what I say
[02:18.79]'Cause if you even think of tryna pull a fast one on me
[02:21.21]Promise you'll be sorry
[02:22.09]Oh my driver's callin' I can't miss my pickup"
[02:24.09]That's when I did somethin' stupid
[02:25.83]And my jacket knocked over a can of soup and then
[02:28.01]It got quiet did he hear me movin'
[02:29.83]Shh
[02:30.14]Hold my breath he must've heard me do it huh
[02:32.10]I'm assumin' the
[02:33.10]Noise must've made him turn his head enough
[02:35.08]To let the guy that was at gunpoint grab his own gun
[02:37.10]Now they both got weapons
[02:38.06]Maybe I should help him
[02:39.14]Sneak up slow and deck him
[02:40.10]Time to go time to go time to go
[02:42.00]It's gon' be a bloody miracle
[02:43.73]Now or never God if I had any blessings
[02:45.73]Coming in my future could you send 'em to my present
[02:48.14]Peek around the edge and I start runnin' at him
[02:50.16]He don't see me comin' does he
[02:51.57]Steppin' closer
[02:52.32]Grab his neck and hold him squeezin' on his throat
[02:54.09]I'm tryna choke him then his elbow hits my nose and
[02:57.14]Think he broke it I think he broke it my
[02:59.08]Blood is leakin' all over my clothes I try
[03:01.23]Not to let go
[03:01.77]But my hands begin to slip and bullets start to fly
[03:05.13]Can't see out my eyes
[03:07.26]Cashier still alive
[03:09.16]I can't tell I'm tryna crawl away here comes another guy
[03:11.74]He runs inside like "Where's the money
[03:13.76]Did you get the money
[03:14.72]Where's the bag you brought"
[03:15.74]Ayy
[03:16.15]"I don't know I think it's still behind the counter
[03:18.10]Prolly by the cashier I just shot"
[03:19.77]Ayy
[03:20.02]"Who's this on the floor
[03:21.09]Who's this on the floor
[03:22.05]"I don't know" "Well did they call the cops"
[03:23.75]He runs up to me then he grabs my shoulder
[03:25.78]As he flips me over then my jaw drops 'cause
[03:28.09]I thought his voice sounded real familiar he's
[03:30.02]Got a mask on but the shirt he's wearing
[03:31.75]Is the same one he had on this morning
[03:33.44]Starin' in my eyes I know he knows I know embarrassed he
[03:36.10]Stands above me and says "Sorry Erin but
[03:37.99]I don't have a choice" he holds the barrel up
[03:40.06]To my head I scream "You can't be serious"
[03:42.02]He shakes his head and says "I'm sorry" then the gun
[03:49.10]Get down get on the ground
[03:57.31]Cashier yells to ask if I'm okay he's dialing 911
