Life is a Gamble

[Intro]

Life is a gamble, oh baby

Where you win or lose

Life is a gamble

[Chorus: BJ the Chicago Kid]

They say life (is a gamble)

So be careful when you shake 'em up, shake 'em up, shake 'em up, shake 'em

Shake 'em up, shake 'em up, shake 'em up, shake 'em

They say life (is a gamble)

So be careful when you shake 'em up, shake 'em up, shake 'em up, shake 'em

Shake 'em up, shake 'em up, shake 'em up, shake 'em

[Verse 1: Big K.R.I.T.]

I roll the dice one time for my folks that died off

Rep the side they believe in but they side lost

Let me toss a seven for the ones won't see tomorrow

Cash those chips in for some time we don't need to ball

Gunshots ran out, everybody hang out

Yellow tape party, all over we sang out

I don't like this feeling, ain't nothing that appealing

'Bout reminiscing, over you, my God

I couldn't cry 'cause your mama couldn't stop crying

And that's hard, Lord, I wish my folks would stop dying

But who am I to say it wasn't your time to black out?

You betted all on a spot, I guess you crapped out

For the finer things, indeed we chase

We told you pace yourself

It's funny, how the things we love, can make us hate ourselves

Russian roulette table, I gotta bet safer

You gotta know when to fold your cards

When you ain't able to reach into that dash when that

Jackal up and flashed that, brass like

Give me all you got or that's your ass

That's all that it would took, the house got me shook

'Cause ain't no point spread, but god doing books

[Chorus: BJ the Chicago Kid]

They say life (is a gamble)

So be careful when you shake 'em up, shake 'em up, shake 'em up, shake 'em

Shake 'em up, shake 'em up, shake 'em up, shake 'em

They say life (is a gamble)

So be careful when you shake 'em up, shake 'em up, shake 'em up, shake 'em

Shake 'em up, shake 'em up, shake 'em up, shake 'em em

[Verse 2: Big K.R.I.T.]

Life is a gamble, feel like I'm rambling sometimes

Like what the fuck I'm 'sposed to say in this rhyme

I shed tears and they won't come back

I said the word and they won't run back

My slot machine was broken this time

Ain't no tokens, I can't redeem to preserve the focus of mine

So many died and I'm scared it's just a matter of time

For I'm lifted myself, six people I know

Ain't been in church in a while, I heard I reap what I sow

Casket close, Caddy doors, can't commemorate

This tracks my gurney, my verse can be the ventilator

So I breathe, 'cause Loathing in Las Vegas wasn't meant for me

Too scared I'll stay too long and forget where I'm really meant to be

Heaven maybe, heaven lately, but all these lights are captivating

I had to play it, for the sake of me and mine

Lord, I pray I hit it big this time

[Chorus: BJ the Chicago Kid]

They say life (is a gamble)

So be careful when you shake 'em up, shake 'em up, shake 'em up, shake 'em

Shake 'em up, shake 'em up, shake 'em up, shake 'em

They say life (is a gamble)

So be careful when you shake 'em up, shake 'em up, shake 'em up, shake 'em

Shake 'em up, shake 'em up, shake 'em up, shake 'em
