My reputation can awfully at times proceed itself
Fix or I can fix it, reach out to me if you need some help
We’ve been needing wealth since we got off the boat, debris was felt
And now I’m on a mission so history don’t repeat itself
I can see myself rubbin’ shoulders, mobbin’ with Luck and Bugsy
Somewhere off in Harlem, we run the lotto where shit get ugly
Not for nothin’, I hit my Jewish cousin for tips with money
Gotta keep it tight for these people who tryna get it from me
Livin’ bummy isn’t somethin’ we inspire to be you dummies
You don’t like us? Say it with your chest my nigga, we ain’t chummy

You ain’t got the chance to catch your breath boy if you always running
A gamblin’ man
Run the casino, come up in Kansas then
On black again, I do it and roulette, I bet a grand and then
Hand and hand, we sit with the houses, they run the scam again
Banish them from countin’ the numbers like Meyer Lansky ‘them
A gamblin’ man
Run the casino, come up in Kansas then
On black again, I do it and roulette, I bet a grand and then
Hand and hand, we sit with the houses, they run the scam again
Banish them from countin’ the numbers like Meyer Lansky ‘them
An outsider but rider for crime syndicates (that’s me)
Between me and the big guy with my repentances
It’s no convictions, we ain’t with no life sentences
Not even worth it for you to try makin’ sense of this
Picture this, gentleman gangster but actin’ senseless
Citizens better beware cuz there isn’t censorship
Vintage shit, see I done elevated the penmanship
Remember this, live by the code if you on some criminal shit
Open a casino, and make some C notes while up in Cuba
Biggest corporations and CEO, that’s a chairman to ya
It’s apparent to ya, the rarest form of the fairest ruler
Then I take my winnin’s and all percentages and see my jeweler
A gamblin’ man

Things have changed, look around you yo, too much at stake at hand
I teach a man this the mind, cuz that’s what makes a man
Take a man and pin him against the wall tryna break a man
And that can cause a man to go crazy and make a statement man
Face it, I do not have the power to change the past
But I have the power to change perception and make it last
I know at times, a moral integrity isn’t brass
But the saner me is hopin’ to steadily make a splash
I might go to court for fightin’ the cases they have brought against me
An angel with a dirty face, if I can quite it simply
All I know is smarter, not harder and that’s why no one rents me
I’m winnin’ all my biggest gambles cuz I know they risky
You know somethin’ like that can get you hurt
Aye Momo, get out your fuckin’ seat
Meyer Lansky, twist it, flip it, no handsy
Women be poppin’ Plan B, Joey Cool is my mans G
Cool runnin’ through traffic, I’m on a mission
Consider any table I’m vicious and early pitchin’ it
Niggas weak, interrogatin’ they snitchin’
I’m a high state roller, them Santa’s be really hittin’
War dogs I don’t know you, might Call of Duty this
Scope ‘em out really fast, Imma hose ‘em up from the shoulders I’m doper
*Record scratching* Roll ‘em and dope ‘em
Cook Coke up, I’m doper
Mental is carcinoma, I’m chasin’ billions like Hova
I’m very focused than suckas, I already know it
Been lit from the crib, but the streets really my copay
A gamblin’ man
