Dog Days
Redneck Souljers Lyrics

dear lord I've got to see some change 'cause the man in the mirrors got a mask on his face
I need to make a change in my life because I can't seem to recognize myself in the mirror anymore.

father forgive me for my sinful ways I'm just tired of being treated like a damned ol' stray
I'm asking for forgiveness for my past mistakes and for feeling discarded and unwanted.

but every dog has his days
Everyone has their moment to shine and succeed.

and imma make it mine
I'm going to take advantage of my opportunity and make sure I succeed.

man I'm sick and tired of being sick and tired but imma give this shit one last try
I'm exhausted from failing, but I'm going to give it one last shot before giving up completely.

riding into town and my eyes are wide and my mouth is dry
I'm entering a new environment with a sense of caution and nervousness.

desperate times call for desperate measures
When things are tough, people may resort to extreme actions to survive or get ahead.

desperado seeking treasure
I'm someone searching for financial gain in dangerous or risky situations.

but I ain't found this buried in the ground, I looked around and I feel dumb founded
I haven't found riches in the obvious places or opportunities and I'm feeling disheartened.

I met up with hubb right outside those gates, cause were pissed off of being pissed on by rich boys with silver plates
I've teamed up with Hubb because we're tired of being mistreated and disrespected by wealthy individuals.

but we'll state our claim, here and now listen up and I'll tell you how
We're going to take a stand and make ourselves heard, and I'll explain how we're going to do it.

imma go first with this sawed off and if there's anyone left you gonna take em out
I'm taking the lead with my weapon, and if there are any survivors, Hubb will handle them.

hit the safe gonna break it down, first off we gon' stand hubb in that thing like he's from outa town
We're going to break into the safe, and first, we'll disguise Hubb to avoid detection by placing him inside.

and gonna put the money down like he wants a brand new ticket for the lottery, he'll scratch it off then hit the door and then commits the robbery
We'll use a lottery ticket to gain access to the safe, and then Hubb will use the opportunity to rob it.

busted in the door and let's the buck shots sing (hunting dogs?) with the safe starts feeling like a dream
We'll break open the safe using gunfire, and it will seem surreal and almost too easy.

watched her hit the wall she probably won't feel a thing but hubb looked back at me like "what the he'll did I just see"
We've killed someone during the robbery, and Hubb is feeling confused and shocked.

rolled up in the town on a black stallion, 400 horse on the gas gallon
We've arrived in town on a powerful and fast vehicle, ready to take action.

tumble weeds hit the breaks, dusty breeze dismount, hit the ground with them guns out and the suns out
We've arrived in the barren town, stopping suddenly, ready to get out and fight with our weapons drawn in the bright sunlight.

its high noon somebody might loose their life soon cause I need a break but can't seem to catch one
It's dangerous and a life may be lost soon, but I'm desperate for financial gain and can't seem to catch a break.

bullets are gonna fly if I don't get some cash soon
If we can't get what we need, we may resort to violence and danger during the robbery.

I have to, I'd hate to show yall a bad dude but man I'm really getting pissed off so broke I ain't even got a piss pot
I'm trying not to come across as a bad person, but I'm getting angrier and more desperate by the minute since I don't even have basic necessities.

imma get mine with the six shot as the reason were making this little pit stop yeah
I'll use my weapon and any means necessary to get what we need, which is why we're stopping here.

so I laid my money on the on the counter top it's so quite you could hear a penny drop then I start to sweat man grab a hankercheif
I put the money on the counter, and the tension is so thick that even the slightest sound is startling me and makes me feel nervous.

from my jacket pocket, cashier says "whatcha need honey?" lottery ticket here's my money
I take out a lottery ticket, and the cashier is attempting to assist me.

when she hands it to me next thing I know poor girl laying down bleeding out in front me ears ringing as the sinners inner the room in the back with the safe was centered
Suddenly, the cashier is shot, and I'm in shock and disbelief, realizing the gravity of what we've done as we're near the safe at the back of the room.

look down in dismay cause it was all In vain the lotto ticket was a winner twenty thousand plain as day
Even though we got what we needed, it feels like it was pointless since we resorted to violence and ended up killing someone.

now there blood on my hands can't wash away ya know what they say every dog has his day
I'm covered in blood from the robbery and murder, unable to wash it away. Despite any success, the consequences may be severe, and karma will eventually catch up to me because everyone has their chance to succeed or fail.

man what's the hold up we've done the hold up hit the safe that's where the money's stored up man I know but this tickets loaded we killed somebody this plan has blown up
Although we successfully robbed the safe, we're feeling the weight of the consequences of the murder, realizing the plan may have backfired.

no time to waste man fuck the safe let's get somewhere where nobody knows us jump out the window!woah! guess who showed up
We're trying to escape the repercussions, deciding to jump out the window and avoid detection. However, the authorities arrive on the scene.

hit the ground with the glass shards 5-0 flying in like Nascar we bit the dust then started running half way to the car they started gunning
We hit the ground and were cut by the glass, evidenced by the shards on the ground. The police arrive and start chasing us, and we're caught in gunfire halfway to our vehicle.

blood pouring outta my nose cause they shot our asses we froze up we looked around dropped to the ground next thing ya know we woke up
We're injured and losing blood, and realizing we've been caught in the gunfire, we initially freeze, but eventually, we're knocked down and lose consciousness.
