Lyrics

[Verse 1]
If you fool around with the dealer
Remember soon, you'll have to pay, yeah
He'll creep behind you like a hunter
Just to steal your soul away, yeah
[Verse 2]
I don't want no one messin' with my woman
But just the same, I don't wanna see
Nobody foolin' with you
If you're snow blind Madonna can hold you
But if you don't understand
There is nothin' she can do for you
[Verse 3]
Runnin' from the dealer
Tryna save your soul
[Verse 4]
I can feel the fire comin' from inside you
I know what it's like 'cause I've been burned before
Ain't no mercy in the hunger
You're a fool to yourself
'Cause your dealer keeps you beggin' for more
[Verse 5]
Runnin' from the dealer
Tryna save your soul
[Verse 6]
In the beginning, all you wanted
Was the calm before the storm
If the bluebird plays the eagle, yeah
He finds his song will turn to stone
[Verse 7]
Dealer
