Jj Kikola - Throw The Dice Again Lyrics
I throw the dice againWill I get a six again?That'd be the third in a rowLooks like the beast has got me fixed againIn his sightsIf I roll a five, could I contrive to reach these heights again?UnlikelySo I roll fourStroll through these doors lightlyIs paradise a sacrifice or my reprise for livin' life quietly?No chance so I take my chanceAnd roll a threeLike lucky me, these trees ain't out to fight meSo I hit the trees like ghosts of hangmens victimsTo keep you from sleep at night, seeCold chillsThis world is cold and icyMy advice be rap up wellThrow the diceDon't ask nicelyCause' finding paradise is a gamble...That means at best it's diceyWhat on earth I wouldn't give for just one nights sleepSleep, I throw the dice, they weak, weepThese demons got me diggin' deep, deepI throw the dice, they weepI'm so awake but they don't know my paradise is sleep...X2Sleep...Sleep, sleep. Sleep.Slippin' deeperBleep the reaperAt my windowLike a peeperMy dreamcatcher traps my etherEsotericConfess to no cleric...On this terracotta jotterThrow the dice on what I gotta sayAnd play this game like the lotto...My motto for MayIs March on My WayI need to roll one to stay away from where I can't go todaySome say I'm owed oneBut Karma's like my marmalade...But breakfast seems so far awayJust like this song being madeI'd call for Maid ServiceBut this hotel rooms a prison cause' this system is so perverseMaybe...I'll finally sleep right through the third verseBut y'all been listening for a while, so let me reimburse you...Let me scripture, chapter, verse youFrom books with no namesFrom hooks with no shameMy blood on barsTil' no pain, no moreNopeToo dope like Dope GameMy dome ain't home to no PopeBut I can't sleep...This sh.. is No Joke!So in early A.MIm still churchin' with my old folksThe early bird catches first wormSo I'm on my knees in the dirtMy mind wriths and squirms...Mindful of my hurtAnd the world's...My heart breaks at how the world worksAnother world lurksI'm Anthony O'DalaighThey Hardiman BurkesI'm guard of Bard, fam, clan and my yardOne eye open as I sleepI throw the diceIt works...Works...I've got...I've got one eye open as I sleepNight creepAnybody who don't know meI'm on the beat...Keys to the Jeep?Told 'em ; NO!Tony hit the flowBut they still wouldn't goOohhh...And I can't sleep no moreI'm 'Nightmarez'Climbin' up the front door... "Hey!"Nightmares climbin' up my front door, look!Nightmares yoSince my first throwThe dice still rollClimbin' through the windowWhen y'all ain't got a doorAt my windowHid because of the sin, yoBut like a Ninja, I'll physically unhinge yaI could bust a Ninja - any move I make ...Look I'm off for a walkI'm off for a...Look I'm off for a walkLike we did in the first rhymeI know we not some kind of kidsIt's not our first timeRhymeIf I could find some paradise...Some paradise but that's my sacrificeI've been blessed twiceBut still my search for paradise keeps me from sleep at nightSo many sleepless nightsSo I throw the dice and wake to allWhen I close my eeeyyyesss... In paradise.
