I Scratch

I scratch I scratch I scratch I scratch It started in Reno... Like buying a car when you know that you're broke Like betting it all when you're just out of hope Like walking a wire without any rope You come in and out Just like the moon And it makes me wanna be lucky with you Like flipping a coin when you're ready to die Like looking for truth when you know that you lied The only thing you bring me is good luck You always get me when I'm stuck But if I keep playing If I keep paying Maybe I can win a little something Scratch Scratch Scratch Scratching at my ticket like a cat Scratching at my ticket like a scab It's like a scratch, scratch, scratch Is it money, honey? Did I win big money? It's a win-win if you're in it for the revenue But a loser never thinks that he's a loser too Like my dad before me and my grandfather before him My mother told me, "You will do it too" Like it's something genetic I inherited But it's something I should've kept in my heart and sublimated I took my inheritance and put it all on red And I lost it all And I have never been back But I am still there in my head Sublimate Sublimate Sublimate Sublimate And I never even learned how to sublimate Now I got my hand inside the oven and I'm touchin' eight I'm a risk, I'm a dice, I'm a dealer Scratch, scratch, scratch, scratch Scratch Scratch Scratch Is it money, honey? Did I win big money? I'm addicted to the feeling that I get with you I scratch And every time I feel lonely I think Scratch, scratch, scratch And every time I feel like I don't have the energy I think Scratch, scratch, scratch I scratch...
