Stacked Deck

Cards on the table, but the dealer’s got tricks,

Flipping aces out his sleeve, pulling fast flicks.

Chips stacked high, man, the stakes stay heavy,

Life's a roulette wheel, spinning fast, unsteady.

Dice roll, snake eyes, gamble on the grind,

Chasing dreams in the shadows, money on the mind.

Double or nothing, risk cuts deep in the chest,

Bet it all on the hustle, pray the hand is blessed.

Pocket full of lint, but my thoughts weigh gold,

Out here in the cold, where the stories get told.

City slick, neon drip, streets hum with a growl,

Moonlight’s the spotlight, wolves start to howl.

Stacked deck, no luck, we make our own,

Built a throne from the bones of the paths we’ve roamed.

Echoes in the alley, whispers under breath,

Every roll of the dice is a dance with death.

Pawns to kings, chessboard’s got cracks,

We move slick through the night, dodging traps and attacks.

Checkmate’s the goal, but the game's never fair,

You’re either the predator, or caught unaware.

Dice roll, snake eyes, gamble on the grind,

Chasing dreams in the shadows, money on the mind.

Double or nothing, risk cuts deep in the chest,

Bet it all on the hustle, pray the hand is blessed.
