Inspector Royale

I need a little bit of change,
No sign of luck, gone down the drain.
I need fortune, I need success,
Something to prove to my little girl I’ll give her the best.
Sun and the light runnin’ right out of my life,
With nothing left.
Sun and the light!

Why do I even try,
When it hurts so much to be alive?
I’m already dead inside,
I got secrets I don’t wanna hide
But hold the line, gotta try,
It's not like I'm gonna risk my life.
And nothing justifies homicide.

Inspector Royale,
Inspector Royale,
Money is the reason why,
We either live or die.

Desperation is my motivation
Brazen and brutal violations
No debt is worth this remuneration
I thought I escaped, but this is no vacation
Home or game, same situation
So I’m back evading elimination-nation,
ELIMINATION!

What is my alibi,
For the things I’ve done to stay alive?
My ethics left far behind,
Death has cornered me from every side.
So hold the line, only time
Will tell if this was worth the crime,
Still nothing justifies homicide.

Inspector Royale,
Inspector Royale,
Money is the reason why,
We either live or die.

My whole life, down the drain,
Million dollars, it still feels the same.
How did I get away?
By playing child’s games.
Child’s games!
