Gambler's Life
Nick 13 Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Money and women came my way
But I always lost in both
'Cause all streaks turn cold someday
And then here come the bad times
But when they come they never stay
Because I leave it all behind
That's the way it goes
In this life we chose
My heart is with this life
Though it cost me everything
Fear of loss, it keeps you
Stuck in some place you don't want to stay
But I've lost it all and come back many times
I'll never be afraid
That's the way it goes
In this life we chose
You've got to take a chance
If it costs you everything
That's the way it goes
In this gambler's life
This is what we chose
So I'll roll the dice

I've lived a life of good times
I have experienced a life full of joyful moments
Money and women came my way
I have had financial prosperity and love interests
But I always lost in both
However, I have never been successful in any of them
'Cause all streaks turn cold someday
Since every winning or successful streak comes to an end eventually
And then here come the bad times
Then come the unfavorable moments
But when they come they never stay
But they are also fleeting and ephemeral
Because I leave it all behind
I abandon my problems and difficulties
The diamonds in the night sky light my way
The stars guide me towards the future
That's the way it goes
That's just how life works
In this life we chose
In this life that we have willingly selected to live
My heart is with this life
I have a strong attachment to this life despite its challenges
Though it cost me everything
Even though my life choices have led to significant sacrifices
Fear of loss, it keeps you
The dread of losing something hinders you from taking risks
Stuck in some place you don't want to stay
It traps you in an environment that you do not want to be in
But I've lost it all and come back many times
Although I have experienced major losses, I have also made a comeback many times
I'll never be afraid
I am unafraid and fearless of taking chances and risking everything
You've got to take a chance
You have to seize every opportunity that comes your way
If it costs you everything
Even if that means sacrificing everything you have
In this gambler's life
In this life filled with uncertainty and risk-taking
This is what we chose
This is the path we have chosen
So I'll roll the dice
So, I will continue to take chances in life
