"Chances" lyrics

I had to roll the dice, I had to shake it up
I had to pray and fight, I had to stay in tough
I had to pay my dues, I had to break the rules
I had to stay up nights, I had to keep it true
Yeah, I had to build patience
Remember back when
I ain't have no payments
I came up from the pavements
I came out of the basement
I had to make a statement
I had to go and take risks

Gambling with my life had to take chances
Gotta the roll the dice
And take some chances
All these long nights taking chances
Gambling with my life had to take chances
Chances
I had fear in me but I took chances yeah
I can't go back now gotta keep advancing yeah
I can't take this chance I got for granted

Why would I go back to the basics
Cause basically we done made it
And I can see the kingdom in HD
God was kicking flavor when He made me
Never took advantage of chances
I was living like Dracula in my life
Had to revamp it
If it wasn't for them long night
With no sleep it ain't no telling
Where I'd be right now
I was gambling with my lifestyle
But I kept the dice from
Going out of bounds
Told the old me to go vanish
I thought I was going home but when I look around it ain't Kansas
I done took for a lot of things in
My life but not for granted

Gambling with my life had to take chances
Gotta go and get it take some chances
Gave you all of me and I took chances

Gambling with my life had to take chances
Gotta the roll the dice
And take some chances
All these long nights taking chances
Gambling with my life had to take chances
Chances
I had fear in me but I took chances yeah
I can't go back now gotta keep advancing yeah
I can't take this chance I got for granted

Gambling with my life had to take chances
Gotta go and get it take some chances
Gave you all of me and I took chances
