Naturally Born Strangers - Tie Breaker lyrics
rate meShe the last of a dying breed
First girl on the court, last girl to try and leave
Wake up and run like she training for the title
Go to bed dreaming about playing in the finals
Painting of her idol on her bedroom wall
Got her thinking about her nephew, Paul
His health problems, the scholarship to college she could get through ball
But coach said she just too small
She like, “No, I’m the right height, if anything, then that’s too tall”
And I be slouching when I’m next to y’all
She’s such a joker but known for a 3 point shooting percentage
So for the playoffs they got a few recruits and attendants
And they was loving her, whole game and they couldn’t cover her
Three seconds left in OT and it was left to her
She put a shot in the air with a prayer saying this one right here is for my nephew, yeah
You get to die breaking, I get the out
You succeed or you fail
You can see or you prevail
Where we are is a mixture of heaven and hell
Tie breaker, get the dog or get the out
You succeed or you fail
You can see or you prevail
Where we are is a mixture of heaven and hell
Tie breaker
Young Sean, local idiot and wannabe thug
Thought he had this new pretty chick falling in love
She was out of his league, just out for a fling
Ran into her ex man fresh out of the pen
Arms tatted up, mad as fuck, something was said
All I seen was young Sean getting punched in his head
If he was smart he would’ve took his little thumping and fled
Instead he went home and got a gun from under his bed
Came back from the block with his hand on the Glock
And a plot for revenge against the man that he fought
First shots straight left, shoulder next
In the sandbox standing, caught a hole in his chest
9 year old boy died with his blood on the wall
Left behind a crying mother who had nothing at all
A stepdad ‘cause his real father wasn’t involved
And an aunty that nobody wanna cover him for
You get to die breaking, I get the out
You succeed or you fail
You can see or you prevail
Where we are is a mixture of heaven and hell
Tie breaker, get the dog or get the out
You succeed or you fail
You can see or you prevail
Where we are is a mixture of heaven and hell
Tie breaker
Hey yo, it must be a reason why it never ends even
The bills come faster than the checks when you need them
Daylight always lasts lesser than the evening
The game, sudden death for the rest of the season
It’s a tie breaker, tie breaker, nigga, tie breaker
