Shake the Dice Cup

You still can see them laughing over your plans
Still got that picture in your mind so alive
They reproach you for your mistakes made in the past
Hear them calling after you "Cobbler, stick to your last!"

You feel their scorn
You turn away
You'll make them learn
You know, some day
And even though you're sweatin' blood
Just have a try
Shake the dice cup

They tend to view you with suspicion and contempt
State of conflict triggers a war in your head
They try to question your skilled ability
Eager, hungry vultures awaiting on a tree

You feel their scorn
You turn away
You'll make them learn
You know, some day
And even though you're sweatin' blood
Just have a try
Shake the dice cup

Deep-rooted prejudice's too difficult to change
Stubborn minds simply won't be told
You hopefully tried to break down the wall of hate
All attempts have led to defeat
You walk around with a guillotine over your head
Great success wakes jealousy
Your so-called friends ostracized you and put a spoke in your wheel
Arbitration's bound to fail

You feel their scorn
You turn away
You'll make them learn
You know, some day
And even though you're sweatin' blood
Just have a try
Shake the dice cup
