The Gambler
Life is all about taking a risk. It’s not too late just a game to play. Not about what you have done. I have no choice but to behave like one too many gets taxed. I break the rules and find my way in the abyss.I’m a rebel trying to live free. Rebel against the norm, live your life unapologetically true. I’m breaking free rewriting my future. Take a chance and believe in me. I won’t let you down this time. Try to believe in yourself to see the next day. And believe that there’s nobody to blame but you and yourself. You can’t blame it on the lost of a loved one where gambling was used as an escape outlet. No more making excuses. There’s no one left to hide what’s hidden from yourself. Unleash the fire in my heart. Begin anew with a fresh start.
