Life's a Game
Life's a game
Life is this game in which we play to win
but sometimes to win you have to fail, lose, leave or be left.
I haven't written this to hurt you
but to make a point.
You tried playing a game inside a game.
It's harder then you thought wasn't it?
I figured you out.
Called your bluff.
Made mistakes and realized then.
You were one of them.
If this hurts you, I'm sorry
but life is a game
its got its highs and lowing,
its gains and losses.
You tried to use me as your pawn
but I won't be used for your success.
Where did I get you?
Nowhere except sinking lower
while I climb higher.
Life's a game
which we play to get to the place so high.
Most people play to get the most money, the most land.
They use others for their turn.
Some play to gain false power by hurting and ruining.
Then the smallest percentage
is those who play to make the game better, funner, easier.
I don't know where you fit.
This wasn't meant to hurt or upset you.
No it was to make a point.
Tell me, did I make it?
