Lyrics
THE GAME I know it's hard To come this far Only to find You’ve been deceived & nothing’s like you thought That it would be From the time that you were young They told you what to say How to dress & how to walk To make your fortunes pay But time is short & things have changed I regret to say If you’ve no strength to play this game It’s best you walked away You better walk away You better walk away I know it's hard So hard to believe & not want to give up On this dream When it all seems like a big hypocrisy Cuz, following this avenue Will take you through the game Where everything’s a power play & everything’s for sale But I will be no use to you Cuz, I can’t change the way Everybody operates & how the game is played Oh, how this game is played Oh, how this game is played I can’t change the ways Thats just how the game is played Perhaps you think you're smart enough To make it through the craze With everyone wanting a piece of you On any given day Well I have got some news for you It will slowly wear away All the love you thought you had & all you thought you’d saved All you thought you’d saved All you thought you’d saved Cuz, thats how this game is played Oh, how this game is played Perhaps you think you're smart enough To make it through the craze With everyone wanting a piece of you On any given day Well I have got some news for you It will slowly wear away All the love you thought you had & all you thought you’d saved Well in this game you must know To make it you must trade All the things you care about Twist all the things you made When time ticks down upon your age & strips you of your stage You’ll finally see you’re not so free Just in a prettier cage Pretty cage In a pretty cage...
