A Lesson in Gambling
I'm not really good at making decisions
I crashed my car into a wall once just to see how it felt
And the result was just me landing up in a neck brace and feeling
Very sorry for myself
For the longest time
I put myself on the line
Knowing full well that gambling could ruin my life
The chances I take
I know they could make me way richer or poorer
But I value mistakes when they're my own
I once had a dream that I was cripple
The next day I met a crippled man who had a dream that he could walk
He made me realise that dreams don't put life into perspective
Anymore than I could ever do for myself
For the longest time
I put myself on the line
Knowing full well that gambling could ruin my life
The chances I take
I know they could make me way richer or poorer
But I value mistakes when they're my own
