Lyrics

Why’d I have to grow up
Cause I don’t think I’d choose this life at all
I shuffled the cards, dealt my hand
I look down and see I’m playing deadman
So I go all in, I don’t fold
That ain’t something that I know
Beaten worse odds with an even worse hand
So cash me in, ante up, I ain’t scared of a bluff
You have 52 cards and a joker who folds them
But I can’t fold, I can’t slow
Gotta make gold with the cards I hold
Takes a little risk, and an educated guess
52 cards, but I’m making mine the best
Stakes can’t get any higher, it’s a real life or death
I’d take seven deuce over not having a breath
Only one things given, the dealer deals left
After that it’s all on you to be a winner in the end
Life dealt me four nine in an off suit
Worked so damn hard just not to lose
I bided my time, betted my chips
Forced it to the river where I got my trips
It’s just math and emotions, add it up I want it more
You don’t want it bad enough to put a mask and kick a door down
That’s how bad I want it
Either imma get it, or imma die trying
But I can’t fold, I can’t slow
Gotta make gold with the cards I hold
Takes a little risk, and an educated guess
52 cards, but I’m making mine the best
Stakes can’t get any higher, it’s a real life or death
I’d take seven deuce over not having a breath
Only one things given, the dealer deals left
After that it’s all on you to be a winner in the end
Even with the deadman, I
Believe in myself and in my mind
Doesn’t matter what your cards are
It’s how hard you work
Hit my corner peek, I see jack three, I can never sleep
All I do is work, I skip sleep, too impatient
How I turned a jack three to a pair of aces
Worth ethic unmatched, wits intact
Doesn’t matter what you’re dealt
You’ll have an ace in your hand
But I can’t fold, I can’t slow
Gotta make gold with the cards I hold
Takes a little risk, and an educated guess
52 cards, but I’m making mine the best
Stakes can’t get any higher, it’s a real life or death
I’d take seven deuce over not having a breath
Only one things given, the dealer deals left
After that it’s all on you to be a winner in the end
