Brawl.

“I don’t like playing games “

It’s something we all say

Yet we all choose a level

pick our weapons and a place

Cause “no nonsense”doesn’t really exist

And drama to us humans is a love, hate relationship

Boots strapped, armor on, and we keep a mean game face

But we still say that we don’t like “playing games”

while we build our walls higher and higher

Getting all the upgrades

‘Cause no one in this world really is safe

Cause morals and values

Have lost it’s value

And our words aren’t used for what needs to be said

used for low blows, smoke bombs, grenades instead.

And wrong is more expected than right

because the world just isn’t right.

Innocent until proven guilty,

more like guilty until proven innocent

’cause more often than not we choose the path not so magnificent

Never thinking about the “WE” ’cause we’re wired to only think about the “I”

Just think about it, no one ever teaches a baby to lie

Cause were all born with wrong intentions

reflections filled with deception

And the truth is easier to teach but harder to tell

Cause us humans know how to show the good and hide all the bad so well

“I don’t like playing games“

Ha … “I don’t like playing games”

But if you really think about it our species loves to compete

 from the clothes we wear to the amount of food we can eat

From the amount of likes we get

And amount of retweets

From the hair on our head

To the shoes on our feet

Let’s trace it back to Adam and Eve

When they ate the fruit from the tree

And why? Cause even back then we mixed up wants and needs

Wanting to get on God’s level instead of being content and happy

And don’t forget Cain and able who always fought

 Cain killed his own blood to be on top

Don’t hate the player hate the game

Isn’t that another thing they all say

We’re making our world turn in ways it doesn’t spin

And at the end of the day nobody really wins

Were at war with ourselves as well as with everyone else

While really… were all on the same team

Fighting the big boss, the man, the big brother called “Society”

Cause they’ve infiltrated the waves with their philosophies

telling us who and what we have to be

And what we want and what we need

 we’re all like animals coming to feed

From the radio, our phones, and our tv

From the famous ones, our friends, and our computer screen

Cause the hardest thing in life is for you to be you and me to be me

Being 1 in a million yet still having individuality

Helmet tightened, bullet proof vest

Cause only the strongest will out fight the rest

And going against the flow

Just expect hits and blows

Society has allied with the biggest of foes

So say it as much as you need,

“I don’t like playing games“

Say it however you please

“I don’t like playing games“

but guard your heart, buckle your knees

‘Cause the enemy is real

So lace up and grab your shield

’cause no matter who or what you’re fighting

life has become a battlefield.
