[Verse 1] She waits, he works, they live at night Low pay, no way to stay polite Too late to change the state of mind Lights out, black on, too hard to find Hops in his car, that's a bad blessing Long night ahead, now she's mad stressing Time’s on their side, but they're still shakin' Gun in their hands, money for the taking
[Hook] Then he feels her touch, it becomes all too much [Chorus] Don't say goodbye, say hello to my good friend See, he's all I know Run and hide, ain't no show, this is a hold-up Hope you just know that we steal to survive
[Verse 2] She prays to change, they wisely would How could something so bad fund their livelihood He knows it's tough but it's for their good Left their morals out to burn like it's firewood And in their hard days have each other still Moving through motions like they know the drill So when it comes to fate, they don't have a say Grown up with these roles that they have to play Rents late as hell but they're side-steppin' Hearts on their sleeves to conceal weapons Break down the door but nobody's waking Head for the drawer, money for the taking
[Hook] Then he feels her touch, it becomes all too much
[Chorus] x2 Don't say goodbye, say hello to my good friend See, he's all I know Run and hide (yeah), ain't no show, this is a hold-up Hope you just know that we steal to survive
[Bridge] x2 But if this ends in ruin It could have happened anywhere Can’t help but feeling human Looked up at Wall Street millionaires
[Chorus] x2 Don't say goodbye, say hello to my good friend See, he's all I know Run and hide (yeah), ain't no show, this is a hold-up Hope you just know that we steal to survive
