[INTRO]

Goodnight, goodnight

Sweetheart, goodnight

[Chorus]

Play it safe, play it sound

Karma has a way of comin’ right back ‘round

Play it safe, play it sound

Karma has a way of comin’ right back ‘round

Play it safe, play it sound

Karma has a way of comin’ right back ‘round

Play it safe, play it sound

Karma has a way of comin’ right back ‘round

[VERSE 1]

Fools speak but fools fools can never reason

I flee from the demons my life has a deeper meaning

People say they love you but colors will be revealing

Socrates speeches, everyone has a season

I never trust a person who swears they have allegiance

Seeing is believing, words can be misleading

The fiends keep fiending

The crack keep gleaming so the drug dealers all up in the back streets scheming

And the feds still harassing they the ones that see you eaten

I used to want to fly before I saw there was a ceiling

When I was 17 there was a dream that I believed in

I never lost the faith but never got what I was seeking

The past that I was piecing never married up together

Some people fought to make it hard for me on my endeavor

Stars will find a way to shine

And karma will remember

Never crumble under pressure

I’ll be pushing on forever

[Chorus]

Play it safe, play it sound

Karma has a way of comin’ right back ‘round

Play it safe, play it sound

Karma has a way of comin’ right back ‘round

Play it safe, play it sound

Karma has a way of comin’ right back ‘round

Play it safe, play it sound

Karma has a way of comin’ right back ‘round

[VERSE 2]

I live my life like God is on the sidelines

I tried

But still I’m treading on a fine line

In hindsight I was never in my right mind

Telling the world it’s high time

Can’t even deliver the right rhymes

Getting the gold or die trying

Digging for gold I might find

Get in the way it’s night night

Never on mine the slight mind

I will endeavor to double the pressure

I never was in it for a nice times

You thought that I lied

Never be letting the fight die

I climb I rise

They ain’t in my eyeline

Head up to the stars

I’ve been praying for a lifeline

Proof is in the pudding

I’ve been pushing trying to find mine

Mine mine

Feel like I’m pushing for a lifetime

Besides I’m never giving time to what doesn’t matter

Brothers made it hard but we charged and we never shattered

I been cheated I been rattled

I was pleading when it mattered

No one ever gave a hand

But we kept pushing at it

[Chorus]

Play it safe, play it sound

Karma has a way of comin’ right back ‘round

Play it safe, play it sound

Karma has a way of comin’ right back ‘round

Play it safe, play it sound

Karma has a way of comin’ right back ‘round

Play it safe, play it sound

Karma has a way of comin’ right back ‘round
