smoking aces

lost in the maze
and the daze
of the concrete jungle
never let the haze fade the ways,
and i almost never stumble
stomach grumble
but im keeping it humble
only feeding necesarry building blocks
so that i dont tumble,
and watch,
eye's teary,
while all my plans
and mechinations crumble
like a house of cards...
i got scars
and stories on my body
walking alone fer awhile
but ive been known
to date a hottie in times past
got to last if your gonna thrive
leave it to the young to let all barrells loose
and never leave alive...
me gonna duck and cover,
run and find the nearest exit
since i dont carry a gun
and ill survive the next hit
and the one after that
i got a pit for a pet
i play poker and i bet
all in when i aint got shit
but lookin in my eyes
youll think aces never quit
