House of Cards |
| Ate lunch with the devil was dancing with death |
| I’m making the most of the chance I have left |
| One hand to the sky, one hand on my chest |
| If you asked if I’m scared then the answer is yes |
| I done been up, I don’t been poor |
| Not even a dollar, I slept on the floor |
| A mountain of problems that can’t be ignored |
| I came from the bottom to settle the score |
| Lord gave me a shot with this music |
| I promised him no more excuses |
| I’m trying so hard you can tell by my scars that my past has been so damn |
| abusive |
| It’s time I tell you what the truth is |
| Some days I swear I feel useless |
| My happiness has been elusive |
| I had an encounter with Judas |
| Somewhere in the dark along the line I lost my mind |
| The old me is a prisoner that’s somewhere lost in time |
| I had family I treated right that tried to take my life |
| Look at my back and you won’t find no room to put another knife |
| I lost my mind, I got no shame and I keep trying not to cry |
| Got this ice running through my veins and I got fire in my eyes |
| All the things that I’ve done in the darkness |
| All the nights that my mind was at war |
| And down in my soul there’s just one thing I know |
| Heaven ain’t a place you go looking for |
| They all fall down |
| Just like a house of cards |
| They all fall down |
| And heaven ain’t a place you go looking for |
| Hold up, throw me the sack and let’s roll up |
| Been struggling trying to get sober |
| Fuck it, pass me the drink and let’s pour up |
| But don’t ask what’s in my Styrofoam |
| You can tell the lights are on |
| But there ain’t nobody home |
| Been smoking that killer shit |
| You can tell that I’m feeling it |
| You can tell that I’m really lit |
| Out of body experience |
| Back in my zone, back in my bag |
| Ain’t been the same since that happened to dad |
| I’ve been barefooted while walking on glass |
| Surrounded by flames with a can full of gas |
| Ready for war put on my armor |
| I’m doing this for my son and my daughter |
| As I kneel down at the foot of the father |
| Left all my problems right there at the altar |
| And he washed away every sin |
| Now I’m back and I’m better than I ever been |
| I lost my mind, I got no shame and I keep trying not to cry |
| Got this ice running through my veins and I got fire in my eyes |
| All the things that I’ve done in the darkness |
| All the nights that my mind was at war |
| And down in my soul there’s just one thing I know |
| Heaven ain’t a place you go looking for |
| They all fall down |
| Just like a house of cards |
| They all fall down |
| And heaven ain’t a place you go looking for |
