Deck of Cards

Deck of cards

Spades,
Clubs
Hearts,
Diamonds

Life, bring me what you will
And make me fight until
I know it gets even more pained
Cause that’s how it’s played
I’ll make it to the top eventually
Cause after all it’ll come naturally

Showed me the spades
That stabbed me with pain
Clubs, sent me an explosion
Gave me an array of emotion

And hearts opened to one another
healing into a diamond with luster
These are my deck of cards
Reminding me it’s not that hard

They might not be in order
Choosing won’t make you a beggar
So when they fall to the ground
Let them stay face down
And pick them up again
It’s limited time to spend
If you choose your desired order
You’ll break their corners

Spades,
Clubs
Hearts,
Diamonds

Showed me the spades
Made me help my pains
Clubs, sent me flying
Gave me a chance at smiling

And hearts mended into one
Process of diamonds are done
These are my deck of cards
Reminding me who we are

We’re only human
So if we keep consuming
And try to get our own way
There’ll come a day
You’ll fall hard
Cause the bigger you are
You’ll fall hard


Spades,
Clubs
Hearts,
Diamonds


A deck of cards
Don’t grow with greed
Replace them with a good deed
You’ll fall hard
Cause the bigger you are
You’ll fall hard
Along with your deck of cards
