Gambling Lyrics by Rod Wave

Hunger Games

2016

[Intro]
(BOOGZY on the track)
Ayy
Ayy
Ayy, ayy

[Chorus]
I'm in the middle of the projects with my gun in my hand
Most don't have a choice, so we choose to take a chance
Gambling, whatchu gon' do when it's time to feed your family?
You gon' go handle it by gambling
We gambling, ayy, gambling, gambling, gambling, ayy, ayy
It's hard to focus on your grind, when you got everything on the line
We gambling

[Verse]
I'm in the projects with all of my young niggas
These niggas hungry and they ready to squeeze triggers (Oh, woah)
I'm all about these dollars (Yessir)
I said, I'm all about these dollars
The crackers came to the trap, now we running out the back
I was sliding through the city with a semi in my lap
Niggas said he want me dead, I got a semi in my lap
Run up on me if you want, momma's son ain't coming back
I'm tryna get me some money, but this shit dangerous
Niggas only want problems, tryna bang at us
But they know how we comin', and they know I'm the dumbest
Noonie fell in love with cheese, I'm all 'bout this money
I'm on the block with the team, with [?] and Kareem
We out here chasing this green, better yet chasing dreams
You can try to stop our shine if you want to
How 'bout I'll just tell you what I'm gon do?
Slide down the block, I'm strapped like velcro (Ayy, ayy, ayy)
Hop out with the Glock and let the shells go (Ayy, ayy, ayy)
I'll probably get caught and catch your elbows
Spend the rest of my life locked in the hell
But fuck it, I'm dumping on any nigga riding
'Cause where I'm from these, niggas violent
Shoot first or you dying
You hear them sirens, somebody dead
Left him dead with a bullet inside his head
It's consequences when you gambling, you better not crap out
Hope I hit sevens (Ding, ding, ding, ding), jackpot
Can you walk a mile in my shoes? I hear gambling
Whatchu willing to do to feed your family?
You lose or your lose
Out here, you lose or you lose
But until then I'ma keep grinding and surviving, ayy

[Chorus]
I'm in the middle of the projects with my gun in my hand
Most don't have a choice, so we choose to take a chance
Gambling, whatchu gon' do when it's time to feed your family?
You gon' go handle it by gambling
We gambling, ayy, gambling, gambling, gambling, ayy, ayy
It's hard to focus on your grind, when you got everything on the line
We gambling
I'm in the middle of the projects with my gun in my hand
Most don't have a choice, so we choose to take a chance
Gambling, whatchu gon' do when it's time to feed your family?
You gon' go handle it by gambling
We gambling, ayy, gambling, gambling, gambling, ayy, ayy
It's hard to focus on your grind, when you got everything on the line
We gambling
