Common - Play Your Cards Right lyrics

Your rating:

(feat. Bilal)



Yeah... ohhh... [x3]



[Chorus: Bilal]

Ohhh...

Everything's gone be alright

If you play your cards right

Everything's gone be alright...



[Verse 1: Common]

It's do or die, your looking through the eye of a revolver

I revolve around the world, a problem solver

Alter your ego, and the way your walkin'

Talk to people, still I stay regal

Read through the bullshit

Sometime to make peace, you need a full clip

Roll dice with niggas who got bricks at a good price

Talk shit, give good advice, rollin' through the 'hood right

It's the good life, like T.I. said

Gettin' it, how could I not be fed

Get bread, get dough, get fed, get mo'

In the old school Lincoln, thinking I sit low

Let problems burn slow away

I yearn for the day that it won't go gray

Remember we were kings, back in the day

Still can be, depending on the cards you play



[Chorus 1 x2: Bilal]

If you play (if you play), your cards right (cards right)

Everything... gone be alright (well... alright [x3])



[Verse 2: Common]

I ain't playin' with a full deck

The government won't let me get a full check

I'm taxin' marks, I got more heart than clubs

The black spade, givin' 'em darker love

Make 'em strip, like poker poker mag in his face

You tried to smoke my ace, you know the stakes

It's high like the ace is

Get your squad face down like cards, before they get a facelift

You get robbed, better yet jacked for diamonds

Leave you victimless, like Jack in "Shining"

Blocked your bluff, now your respect is stolen

Took your chips, led my guys in Texas Hold 'Em

Rolled the strips of Vegas, with money boss players

Stacey Adams of different flavors, we major

Gangstas and hustles, living moviestar life

Dealt a bad hand, but I played my cards right



[Chorus 1 x2: Bilal]

If you play (if you play), your cards right (cards right)

Everything... gone be alright (well... alright [x3])



[Chorus 2 x2: Bilal]

Ohh...

If you play (if you play), your cards right (cards right)

Everything's... gone be alright (well... alright [x3])



[Bilal: Accapella]

Yeah... Ohhh...



Everything's gone be alright, if you play your cards right

Everything's gone be alright...
