it always starts small
then only gets bigger
its so hard to stop
when dollar starts to figure
pennies to dimes
dollars to thousands
sacrifice your morals
you're nothing without them

putting in some overtime
open up the bank line
credit, now it's all mine
ending up doin' time

buying your time
selling your conscience
only to gain
that which is worthless

skimmin' off the top and into my (pocket)
you can't just go and put it back now, no, no, no.
