Lyrics
Intro
Hood up
Clock in, mask up
Same blocks
New plot, bad luck
Verse 1
Phone ping
That’s bread, that’s risk
Old ting
New blade on hip
One call
Whole plan take shift
Blue lights
Back roads, lane switch
Mum texts
“Where you, son? Talk”
Read it
Heart freeze, then walk
Cold hands
Warm cash, can’t stop
Big dream
Small flat, top floor
Chorus
Clock in, mask up
Pray I clock out rich
Whole life backed up
In this one small zip
Same pain, passed up
We don’t pass that quick
Clock in, mask up
Hoping that time might slip (yeah)
Verse 2
Shop front
See opps, that’s smoke
Laugh loud
But eyes still woke
One move
Whole crew turn ghost
Black track
Black cap, black coat
Judge talk
That’s years, that’s dust
Street talk
That’s fear, that’s trust
Two sides
One life, one bust
Sky grey
Ground red, old rust
Chorus
Clock in, mask up
Pray I clock out rich
Whole life backed up
In this one small zip
Same pain, passed up
We don’t pass that quick
Clock in, mask up
Hoping that time might slip (mask up)
