The Game Songtext
von Pez

Now I don′t even know the reason why I'm in this

Crazy messed up world to begin with
But I′m just trying to make the most of it (most of it)
It's more than I can say for most of us (most of us)
And see this world had me feeling like I nearly lost my mind
Waking up to that same feeling all the time
It was like I was getting by just swinging from a thread though
Barely hanging on and still I didn't want to let go
Through all the errors and the effort there′s a lesson I learned
It′s pretty hard to get the best when you're expecting the worst
It seems simple enough

So why do I make it so hard? I don′t know but I do
And some days I lament it but hey
It's better than the mundane life that I had, shit
Relying on cheap thrills and refills to be filled


Walking the line where you′ve become a lot of things
But you're never quite you
Till life becomes another thing that you′re never quite through
And too many of us live like that in the grips of the mind
But I'm guessing that's why this is life and

Some want the money, some want the throne
Some they′re really caring and some they want both
It gets deep in the game we play
I guarantee it′ll stay the same
You know it goes like
Some want the money, some want the throne
Some they're really caring and some they want both
It gets deep in the game we play
I guarantee it′ll stay the same

I nearly came to break down
Trying to figure this maze out
Face down getting sick of that cynical same frown but
Now to help me finding my escape route
And it's got me thinking I can finally find my way out
To lay down was never an option
I figure losing in the game is better than watching (don′t you?)
After all of this shit that we go through
Yet it's all seen only so few make it out


Doubt keeps so many tame
So they′d rather keep forgetting that they can escape
And wait till it's too late to then explore
Or fade away while wishing they made a way to press pause
It's never coming no

Nah, it′s like yeah there′s another road there still
But there's no way I′m ever gonna go
So instead I'm getting back, back to the
Place where most exist and it goes like this, it goes

Some want the money, some want the throne
Some they′re really caring and some they want both
It gets deep in the game we play
I guarantee it'll stay the same
You know it goes like
Some want the money, some want the throne
Some they′re really caring and some they want both
It gets deep in the game we play
I guarantee it'll stay the same

Yeah, it's like that
But I see that it just ain′t right
But I see that it just ain′t right
But I see that it just ain't right

See now at every show I got
People there really just want one song
But thinking where I′ve come from I ain't gonna run from it
Never, I′m not gonna lie
There's nights when I feel like my world is closing in

But I just try to keep in mind what I′ve been focused on since day one
Man 'cause really I'm still hoping that that day comes
Names come and go, yeah I know
But there′s a part of me that′s sure that I won't
And as I grow

I see a lot of new fans tagging along on the bandwagon
Though it feels good to finally be in a place where you have them
It wasn′t always that trend thinking back when

Everybody's ignoring ya
Now they′re like "Hey I probably should have supported ya"
It's okay, shit I′m not holding a grudge
I'm just glad you're not around to keep on holding me up
In this world where

Some want the money, some want the throne
Some they′re really caring and some they want both
It gets deep in the game we play
I guarantee it′ll stay the same
You know it goes like
Some want the money, some want the throne
Some they're really caring and some they want both
It gets deep in the game we play
I guarantee it′ll stay the same

Yeah one more time it goes
Some want the money, some want the throne
Some they're really caring and some they want both
It gets deep in the game we play
I guarantee it′ll stay the same
You know it goes like
Some want the money, some want the throne
Some they're really caring and some they want both
It gets deep in the game we play
I guarantee it′ll stay the same
