Roll the Dice
Rolling Life's Dice: Embracing Fate and Taking Risks with Salaam Remi and Gallant
Lyrics
Oh, oh
Expression of surprise or realization.
Mince my words
Speaking directly and honestly without hesitation.
Burn both ends
Living a hectic and intense lifestyle.
I've paid my tolls
Having experienced challenges and hardships.
(Paid my tolls)
Confirmation of overcoming difficulties.
Cardinal sins
Committing significant moral transgressions.
Paved my roads
Creating one's own path in life.
I'm on my own
Independence and self-reliance.
(On my own)
Emphasizing personal solitude and resilience.
Oh (Oh)
Reiteration of surprise or realization.
But every time I fall, I fall harder (Oh, babe)
Acknowledging the intensity of failures and setbacks.
And every time I sail, I breathe water (Ooh)
Expressing vulnerability and the struggle to adapt.
So let me roll the dice, babe
Expressing a desire to take risks and face uncertainty.
Let me spin the barrel, once or twice
Metaphorically referencing a dangerous game or situation.
Trust me with the cards, hey
Requesting trust in making life decisions.
Just let me take a bet out on this life
Expressing a willingness to gamble on life's uncertainties.
Gavels up, windows down
Acknowledging responsibility and accepting consequences.
I've made my bed (Made my bed)
Confirming choices and facing the outcomes.
Oh, hang my bones in
Symbolic reference to inner thoughts or emotions.
Catacombs inside my head (Inside my head)
Emphasizing a complex and introspective mindset.
'Cause every time I stand up, I cower (Oh, oh)
Feeling vulnerable and intimidated despite standing up.
And every time I speak, I lose power
Losing influence or control when expressing oneself.
So let me roll the dice, babe
Reiteration of the desire to take risks and face uncertainty.
Let me spin the barrel once or twice
Metaphorically referencing a dangerous game or situation.
Trust me with the cards, hey
Requesting trust in making life decisions.
Just let me take a bet out on this life
Expressing a willingness to gamble on life's uncertainties.
I don't wanna choose
Uncertainty about making decisions and seeking guidance.
And I don't wanna take my own advice
Reluctance to follow one's own advice, possibly due to doubt.
Leave it to the birds
Suggesting leaving decisions to fate or chance.
And let me take a bet out on this life
Reiterating the willingness to gamble on life's uncertainties.
