Crime Pays
Now we live in desperate times
Standing ground, behind the lines
Watch my back, obey the signs
Can't avoid the futile crimes
Laws will pass, so laws will break
Pay the price for one mistake
What you've earned, someone will take
Realize the games we make
Life's short, and time will fly
Years pass before our eyes
Stand now, and wonder why
Crime pays, and then you die
Things change, but in the end
Fair play cannot contend
Believe you will ascend
Crime pays, I can't pretend
Standing ground, behind the lines
Watch my back, obey the signs
Can't avoid the futile crimes
Laws will pass, so laws will break
Pay the price for one mistake
What you've earned, someone will take
Realize the games we make
Life's short, and time will fly
Years pass before our eyes
Stand now, and wonder why
Crime pays, and then you die
Things change, but in the end
Fair play cannot contend
Believe you will ascend
Crime pays, I can't pretend
