Board Meeting

No second chances,
No mistakes; watch the whole foundation start shaking.
I point left, somebody's done; I point right,
They better run.
This ain't a game,
This ain't for fun; by the morning it's already one.
Head to the table, making the calls, building my kingdom,
Watching them fall.
Loyalty pays, but betrayal costs all; I sit here,
Deciding who stands or who crawls.
They walk in nervous,
Reading my face; knowing tonight somebody's erased.
Cigars burning, brandy I taste, every move measured,
Nothing to waste.
Ledgers open, debts getting paid,
