Ante Up

I see whites in the eyes of the lawless

creeping in through the cracks of my fence

I wanna shake them off, I'm gonna pay them their dues

Cuz after me, they're coming after you

But I don't know if I can wait 'til then

Where I'm at, I'm gonna be until the end

And with a little unrest, they're sure to turn around and go

Because they don't believe what they pretend to know

And the ones who relate

Are the ones who will take it up

I got a life in the breeze and the branches

Shake the leaves to make a presence known

Well, it's a curious path to be had by a few

But it's enough for me if it's enough for you

And the ones who relate

Are the ones who will take it up

Ante up, won't you ante up

Come and lay your future in this earth and mud

Ante up, won't you ante up

Leave it all behind and stay for good
