9-5 Man

9-5 Man

Won't ever see me 
Can't possibly feel me
No scars to speak of
Only ideas of 
What should be
What I could be
Differences
Left miles of earth shattered roads 
Only I see

SOUL WALKING WOMAN
9-5 WORKING MAN
CLOCKOUT
I KNOW YOU BLUFFIN'
PLAY THAT CONTRADICTING HAND

I've tortured souls
Slanged life's tricks from fox holes
Time behind bars
All under same sky
Same stars
The True savage Beast
Layed out my heart 
You mistaken for a feast

SOUL WALKING WOMAN
9-5 WORKING MAN
CLOCKOUT
I KNOW YOU BLUFFIN'
PLAY YOUR CONTRADICTING HAND

Bring your judgement
I dare you
Reservations for two
Same fire 
Same flame
Suga Coated choices out of the blue
Ya , devil I see your bet
And I ain't scare to  raise you 

SOUL WALKING WOMAN
9-5 WORKING MAN
CLOCKOUT 
I KNOW YOU BLUFFIN'
PLAY THAT CONTRADICTING HAND

Smoking Emerald cauldrons 
Pryed open windows
 found  no soul
Deceiving truth 
 honest lies
DAMN you and those hell kissed eyes

Reincarnated time
Selling me 
One more line
Stories ending unfolds
Self destructing old soul

SOUL WALKING WOMAN
9-5 WORKING MAN
RESERVATIONS STILL BOOKED
SHOULD HAVE RECOGNIZED 
THAT LOOK
MY REFLECTION 
STILL SHOOK

JACKPOT ......TOOK
