The Gambler and not the Kenny Rogers type

The Gambler is a kind man

and yet...

somehow he is also a shady man

Shady, not in the secretive type

Shady, not in the lying type

Although... one could say lying to oneself makes you the lying tupe

And isn't that what makes a Great Gambler?

When I say shady, I guess I mean the throwing rocks type

I'm kind, but I'll cast a shade on you

I'm the Gambler, but shame on you

To me, this is the worst Gambler 

The one who prefers to see flaws in everyone but himself

It's okay for them because they lose and forget

It's not okay for others because they then have to project

For that, I say, you're a Gambler and not the Kenny Rogers type
