Mad Dukez - Brother Bookie [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Hook]

They holla bookie, bookie
Now I'm lookin' lookin'
Numbers game' play the rates
Bets cookin' cookin'
As I'm standin' by the bar watching regulars come
Best to tally up the count 'fore the game has begun
Know the field, and players, and the habits of play
Got a system so consistent that it never would sway
But as everything'll change, I adapted a way
Use the blue collar gamblers and folks everyday
Start to see a different caliber
Comin' to bet with me
They only bet the sure shots
It's unexpectedly
Surprisin' and getting me
Feelin' so uneasy
Risin' the feelin' that chance just may beat me
They eyes as cold as the cash, hits the table top
Starin' harder than a target 'fore ya take a shot
Bet you they believin' they deal with a small fry
I get the hint they need a fall guy
Nope

[Hook]

They holla bookie, bookie
Now Im lookin' lookin'
Gettin' nervous, how the ball game's cookin' cookin'
And the stakes hit the ceiling when the rookie's bookin'
Every fiber of my being feels I'm gettin' took-en
What is this?
What's real?
I try to separate it
But I think you know the deal
Running's harder than steel
The game starts ill
Nothin' follows a pattern
No one playin' the same
Makin' me ask what happened and bigger players is snappin'
Money is such a factor
They lookin' for me and rewardin' killers for capture
All from a bet they placing and tension increasing after
All of my hunches right, I say dammit its a disaster!
No where that I can turn
Fears fillin' my eyes
Knew that somethin' was up so I'm really not too surprised
Soaring top of my trade till they target me out the sky
Damn, i think they found they fall guy
Nope
