House Of Cards

If you don't gamble, not a playa, you's a lame
If you ain't struggle, nah baby we ain't the same
You can't be here if you ain't musically insane
Matter of fact I am the queen of this game
I have peeked in the unknown
Now the danger zone's my home
Fear is the devil's backbone
I don't feel it cause I sit in God's throne
Roll it, roll it, yeah I like my fate uncertain
You know it know it, I like the thrill of the moment
Do it do it, I like testing all my limits
I just own it own it, cause I can't escape the torment
Of this mothafucking game, I'm forced to participate in
It's inside my brain, all the codes that I can't break in
So I'mma just stay cause I know that we just playing
I know you cant relate, yeah you don't know what I'm saying

I've been playin' too much but I got this far
'Til I'm stackin' all this paper like a house of cards
They been tryna read my hand, oh please
Y'all can take a peek, but I'd still make you weak

Life is a casino that I wander barely sober
Dealers are hyenas and the the table's full of vultures
And if truth be told then everybody wanna win
Are you folding? Are you betting all your chips?
Yeah I got a couple kings, they my brothers in the game
And I got my queen a mink, she my lover and my dame
Got some jokers tryna link with my supper and my grace
I'm like "what is up with that?", I'm not gonna give you jack
Put my heart in a shelf, went through hardships and hell
Now there's diamonds all around me, that's the cards I've been dealt
I've been tryna flush these memories just straight, I torpedo through the gates
Problems, ego, and I'm vain: that's the trio that I hate
So now counting and gathering bread's average I'd rather instead
Brandish my dapper and dressed and have all my cavalry fed
Have all my salary spread for all of my baddies in debt
Cause you know no matter the bet; the house always gathers the ends

She a queen of the clubs, and she's paid to be like this
Ain't no winnin' her heart with no diamonds
Everybody wanna get a piece of the pie
it's a motherfucking game, and no winners but our pockets
Oh, you don't even know
Tryna break away but you only goin' broke
I ain't tryna say that you ain't got no hope so
Put your fuckin' chips on the table and let's roll

I've been playin' too much but I got this far
'Til I'm stackin' all this paper like a house of cards
They been tryna read my hand, oh please
Y'all can take a peek, but I'd still make you weak

I've been playin' too much but I got this far
'Til I'm stackin' all this paper like a house of cards
They been tryna read my hand, oh please
Y'all can take a peek, but I'd still make you weak
