The game is tough! The stakes are your life...

I wanna talk about a concept I've observed
G-A-M-E, "game"; that's the word

But I ain't talkin' 'bout an enjoyable pastime
If caught slippin' or sleepin', somebody will jack mine

Goin' on forever on an infinite loop
This life is a game, right down to the shit in the news

Dependin' on what you spawn, you're a pawn or a don
You'll figure it out once the game is on

Many get preoccupied with the side quests
But I'm a man on a mission; I can't digress

Gotta make sure my stomach is full
So I ain't got time for none of the bull

No point in hatin' the player, or hatin' the game
Because no matter what, it remains the same

My jimmies are rustled, but I still need to hustle
There's no time to pause because the odds are stacked up

They try to tell you different, but it's all the same
You wanna know what is it? It's all a game

They said I can't cash my reality check
And I've become cynical survivin' on the minimal

This is one game nobody beats!

The only reason you haven't been killed yet
Is because of what you've learned as a part of your skillset

Make no mistake; it's kill or be killed
This game is unbeatable for the weak-willed

Whether you sink or swim, that's up to you
But for me, failure would be somethin' new

They say the meek shall inherit the earth
But I'm levelin' up for whatever it's worth

No doubt, the game of life is a dangerous one
But you have to play the game until the game, it is done

Is it fun? Well, that depends on who you ask
Some are movin' slow, and some are movin' fast

Many gettin' done wit' no protection
Votes don't even count when they throw the elections

It really ain't no shock to me
The absence of the so-called "democracy"

It's just to project the illusion of freedom
'Cuz the games you don't know you're playin', you don't usually beat 'em

You get euthanized when you can't separate truth and lies
But what shatters the peace usually matters the least

Gotta be tough as cement to make a couple of cents
It's gettin' hard to put money on the debit card

I'm usin' every single power I hold
Because the world I live in is so callous and cold

There's no democracy; only bold hypocrisy
We all know who hold monopoly

This is one game nobody beats!

When you try to be a good sport, you only get played
This is a lesson I've learned from nearly two decades

So I'm on my own like Patti LaBelle
Who's friend, who's foe, yo, I can't even tell

Beware of the fake friends; we all gotta make ends
Groups and factions are useless distractions

Other players can make the game much more hazardous
But still I rise like Lazarus!

If you don't get strong, you won't live long
Who holds the power in the coldest hour?

Say what you want, but the truth is indelible
I'll do whatever it takes to get my belly full

Gotta navigate society's mazes
And clear my own path with fiery blazes

The enemies wanna keep me in the darkness
But I'm still levelin' up regardless

Problems keep poppin' up like a titty at the Super Bowl
They say God never give you more than you could hold

Is that true? Well, no one can say for sure
But I'm still playin' the game, so I thank the Lord

'Cuz it's gettin' real rough these days
And if it's Game Over, there ain't no replays

So many of us will die in vain during the game
And it's enough to drive insane

I ain't the first, and I know I won't be the last
Sometimes to get full, you need to fast

This is one game nobody beats!
