[Intro 1]
[Am][Em][Am][Em]

[Verse 1]
[Am]Ruby's
as cold as ice,
what [Em]she's been through
and her life ain't right
[F]Mum and [Dm]dad the ad[F]dicted type,
she was in care by the age of five
She moved [Am]up to the Isle of Wight,
she [F]moved full time by the
[Em]time she was nine
[F]She don't trust no guys,
they can't get through
but they [Am]keep on trying
Ruby don't act her age,
she 15 but [Em]grown and wise
[F]Fake love can't heal the pain,
she don't go school [Am]she smoke it high
[Dm]Her parents smokin' white,
[C]how can I judge
how you cope with [B]life?
Chillin' with all the guys,
they [Dm]ask her age, she told them [Am]lies
You know what it's like,
you know how it goes
She's [Em]young and she lost her vir[F]ginity,
not everyone [Dm]call her a hoe
Star[Am]ted with p[F]ullins at [Am]home,
now all of a sudden the
[F]problem has grown
Now Ruby grew [Em]up on her ow[Dm]n,
she don't have a problem with
being [F]alone[Am]
You're a scumbag, you're
He's rose, I scored his [F]ice
You're willing to save
If you don't wanna freeze,
let's [Am]stay inside
You're a scum[F]bag, you're
Take that [Em]chance, roll the [F]dice
Broken hearts, broken homes
You're not from here,
you won't [Am]know what it's like
Jax has cold as ice
He's lost his [Em]mum and most his guys
[F]Way too young, but holding knives
He'll do that crime with [Em]no disguise
[Am]Retaliation, how you cope with pride?
No hesitating, go on the [F]ride
You roll the dice, if it goes to plan then come
If [Am]it don't, you [F]don't
[Am]Don't gamble your life,
you don't get that [Em]twice
I don't think I'll ever let that [F]slide
But I won't get dull when I get that stripe
We get the worst advice
[Dm]Think that you're bad
till you're locked in a [Am]can
And now you wanna [C]turn to [Dm]Christ
[B]It costs to be a boss,
[F]but death ain't worth that price
[Am]Jack got caught with a [F]shank
and [Am]Jake's linked into a local murder
[F]Jack's 18 and he's cold, he's Max,
he's young, so he's moving nervous
[Am]Jack been in the station mul[F]tiple times,
he's moving [Em]quiet on [F]purpose
Max [Dm]kept it [F]quiet as well,
now they're both in jail
and he just got [Am]birdie
These roads are as cold as [F]ice
If you don't wanna freeze,
let's [Am]stay inside
[F]Take that cha[Em]nce, roll the dic[F]e
Broken hearts, broken homes,
you're not from here,
you won't know what it's [Am]like
The roads as cold as ice,
you're not from [Em]here,
you won't know what it's like
[F]TV shows don't show what it's like,
I've seen it with my own two [G]eyes
[Am]Two sides, you'll see the divide,
freedom of speech,
I'm speaking my [C]mind
[F]Say too much, get disqualified,
get fed to the liars, [Am]eat you alive
Grew in a detrimental place,
de[F]teriorating your [Em]mental state
[F]It's all good cause we still kept faith,
making it work but we still want change
[Dm]These days it's all fabricated,
[Am]got to the point being r[C]ole as f[Dm]ake
[B]The fiends don't have no [F]shame,
crackheads smoke crack
with the children play
[Am]You know this, it's all a bit strange,
showbiz cos it [Em]all at stake
[F]Selfishness is a foolish game,
it would all change if we all at [Am]stake
This ain't just for the [F]gang,
I feel like we all can relate
On my side, we all the same,
my hood don't discrimin[Am]ate
These roads as [F]cold as ice,
if you don't wanna freeze
let's [Am]stay inside
[F]Take that cha[Em]nce, roll the dic[F]e,
broken hearts, broken homes
Cause you're not from here,
well [Em]no, it's [Am]like
You're as cold as [F]ice
You're willing to [Am]sacrifice
You're as cold [F]as [Am]ice[F]
You're willing to sacrifice
Cause you're not from here,
well [Am]no[F][Am][F][Am][F]
But death ain't worth the
[Am]price[F]
[Am]the[F]
