Life's a Gamble 1

Life's a gamble, you gon' take that chance? Damn right, I'm 'bout cash, you know what fills my pants That charge carry life, you gon' stay on ya' grind? Hell yeah, you already know, money's on my mind What if the police watching, you gon' stand on that corna'? Hell nah, I'll be ducked-off, I ain't a slow learner What ya' gon' do, play cards or roll dice Life's short, move fast, don't think twice Life's a gamble, don't go broke, hit the jackpot Stay solo, running in packs get ya' tied-up...knot Got a few loyal soldiers, lots of phonies and fakes The game's like a cave, filled with rats and snakes There's too many hustles to be sitting 'round broke Call me, like a manager, I got work Gotta' take chances in life, nothing's guaranteed Would you go get it, even if you had to bleed? Mind over matter, but what matter's on my mind Not a pro-skater, but I stay on my grind Try 'n' take mines, best believe you gettin' hit Bring ya' crew, and my choppa'll serve a banana split By any means necessary...that's my motto I wouldn't change my life, even if I hit the lotto
