Letra de House of Cards - Jelly Roll

Ate lunch with the Devil, was dancin' with death

I'm makin' the most of the chance I have left

One hand to the sky, one hand on my chest

If you ask if I'm scared, then the answer is yes

I done been up, I done been poor

Not even a dollar, I slept on the floor

I'm mounting the problems, they can't be ignored

I came from the bottom to settle the score

Lord gave me a shot with this music

I promise them no more excuses

I'm tryin' so hard, you can tell by my scars

And my past is so damn abusive

It's time I tell you what the truth is

Some days I swear I feel useless

My happiness has been elusive

I had an encounter with Judas

Somewhere in the dark, along the line, I lost my mind

The old me is a prisoner that's somewhere lost in time

I had family I treated right that tried to take my life

Look at my back and you won't find no room to put another knife

I lost my mind

I got no shame

And I keep tryin' not to cry

Got this ice runnin' through my veins

And I got fire in my eyes

All the things that I've done in the darkness

All the nights that my mind wasn't whole

And down in my soul, there's just one thing I know

Heaven ain't a place you go lookin' for

They all fall down

Just like a house of cards

They all fall down

And Heaven ain't a place you go lookin' for

Hold up

Throw me a second, let's roll up

Been struggling, tryna get sober

Fuck it, pass me the drink and let's pour up

But don't ask what's in my styrofoam

You can tell the lights are on

But there ain't nobody home

Been smokin' that killer shit

You can tell that I'm feelin' it

You can tell that I'm really lit

Out of body experience

Back in my zone, packin' my bag

Ain't been the same since that happened to dad

I've been barefooted while walkin' on glass

Surrounded by flames with a can full of gas

Ready for war, put on my armor

I'm doin' this for my son and my daughter

As I kneel down at the foot of the Father

Left all my problems right there at the alter

And he washed away every sin

Now I'm back and I'm better than I've ever been

I lost my mind

I got no shame

And I keep tryin' not to cry

Got this ice runnin' through my veins

And I got fire in my eyes

All the things that I've done in the darkness

All the nights that my mind wasn't whole

And down in my soul, there's just one thing I know

Heaven ain't a place you go lookin' for

They all fall down

Just like a house of cards

They all fall down

And Heaven ain't a place you go lookin' for
