High Rollers - Ice T

Speed of life fast it's like walkin' barefoot over broken glass 
It's like jumpin' rope on a razor blade 
All lightning quick decisions are made 
Lifestyle plush females rush 
This high profile personality who earns his pay illegally 
Professional liar schoolboys admire 
Young girls desire very few live to retire 
Cash flow extreme dress code supreme vocabulary obscene 
Definition street player you know what I mean 

The high rollers (x2) 

People of the city,stop foolin' yourself 
Crime rules the streets,who the hell else 
All the police have gone out to play 
Because for enough cold cash they'll look the other way 
Just look at the cars as they go by 
Benz,Ferraris,trucks up high 
Beepers connecting players to big-time deals 
With all of this technology who needs to steal 
Just live a life of leisure every night and day 
And you're livin' proof that crime does pay 
Your life is dangerous and reckless 
You eat fly guys and girls for breakfast 
You're a titan of the nuclear age 
Your muscles flex with a Uzi or 12 gauge 
And you love the game,that's why you boast 
Because you're high priced,high speed.high post 

You're a high roller 

High rollers 

When I say high rollers,I mean the best 
Forget the half-steppers,eject the rest 
Because these high ranked officials of our city streets 
Make millions all triggered by electric beeps 
They dress in diamonds and rope chains 
They got the blood of SCARFACE runnin' through their veins 
Silk shirts,leather suits,hair always fresh 
Eelskin boots,large hearts,though their sizes vary 
Bankrolls that take 2 pockets to carry 
Cruisin' in their 500 Benz Sedan 
With their systems peaked out rockin' PUSHER MAM 
Yes,their fashion's high and hard to beat 
They buy their GUCCI from GUCCI'S not the swapmeet 
Eat very weel,much clientele 
And whatever you need,they probably sell

Oh yes,I'm here to tell you females also roll 
Drive the same cars,somethimes wear more gold 
Cold as an igloo,or hot as a flame 
They'll shake ya,break ya and you won't know their name 
Gangsters to the max,all marks will be taxed 
These girls drive FERRARIS not CADILLACS 
Respect is demanded,most men don't understand it 
Till they peep the huge bank that these girls have landed 
They're junkies for fun,love life on the run 
And if things get hot,they will pull a gun 
Prey on the lame,no shame to the game 
And they all seek POWER,fuck the fame 

The high rollers (x2) 

Now radio stations probably won't play 
This record because of the things I say 
They'll say I'm glamorizing the hustlin' hood 
And a record like this can do no good 
But I'm not here to tell ya right or wrong 
I don't know which side of the law you belong 

Yes,the game has flash,but sometimes hurts 
Behind any mistake,hard times lurks 
And jail's not your only problem,though it may seem 
You just may die by a barrage from an M-16 
But to each his own,choose the mobile phone 
The tailored suit,the luxury home 
You'll never get caught,'cause you got nerves of ice 
And you're much smarter than those crooks on Miami Vice 
Right 
You wanta be a high roller
