6.	Crunch Time (ft. Ketch P) 02:50	lyrics	buy track
Ice in my veins Not afraid the moment.. The clock dwindles down Every second seems dormant Drenched from sweat pouring.. Look at my defender, pretender Can’t stop me from scoring. Had an off game This my stage for atonement.. Locked in focused.. Yeah boy I’m zoning.. This all that wanted.. This all that needed.. Heart Check, Gut Check.. Won’t be defeated… I run through obstacles.. Believe I can do the impossible.. Couple thousand fans all mocking you Neutral site divided.. They win some will riot.. Until I call game now all I hear is silence… What you gon’ do when it’s crunch time, When the pressure is on, is it enough time, Are you gon rise up on the frontline Act on it ‘cause the clock’s goin’ Watch goin’ like tick tick What you gon’ do when it’s crunch time, When the pressure is on, is it enough time, Are you gon rise up on the frontline Act on it ‘cause the clock’s goin’ Watch goin’ like tick tick Relentless work ethic, it’s dna embedded, fully nested, big payback, I am like a bill collector, the opposition feel under pressure, my team do the pressing like fresh vinyl testing, fans gambling half they checks put the bets in-invest the nest eggs, had to get my wind up and rest but, look who’s back checked in, coach got the best in, let’s win, the stakes are high and chips are down I’m royal-ty playing for that crown…the moment of truth I thrive in the clutch leave my mark on this game and it’s left-untouched so What you gon’ do when it’s crunch time, When the pressure is on, is it enough time, Are you gon rise up on the frontline Act on it ‘cause the clock’s goin’ Watch goin’ like tick tick What you gon’ do when it’s crunch time, When the pressure is on, is it enough time, Are you gon rise up on the frontline Act on it ‘cause the clock’s goin’ Watch goin’ like tick tick
