How the Game's PLAYED

VERSE !
Yo Who sets the pace in this madness?
the marathon we all be on, damn sure less about the race but the pastures,
the Green keep them snakes low, slitherin faster
and we all know how it feel to be grassed up.

We movin on past ya though,
Like this aint a cruise but it's casual, 
The (OW)Medics show we done our homework on the anecdote
Movin more covert operation gradual, 
Underground sound this the creaks from the Casket Yo

And where the crassness comin from? where they learn their craft, 
these cats turn their backs like "scratch it homes!"
start fuckin with that new shit, as it goes, 
what they produce is "old news" like wrappin vagabonds!

-on ya park benches, nothin more than a first glance 
if you ain't dancin when the purse strings pinch
tryna advance, without the instinct 
to speak on ya own behalf, and think 'fore ya ink sink!


VS2/  Yo shits real, but this.hollywood bull 
Keep these kids actin ill like they rolled up on their big wheel,
Flashing lights how they set their sights, big scrill
Sirens ain't go off till they realize that they fixed still

Tryna rise like the cream, but the crop,
leave em outside the pic unseen from the shot, 
Generic got em this far, but the drawbacks the spot,
That you filled just as easy to refill once ya blow ya shot!

Then you back up on the. Block, starting to see the same patterns,
The fame drops and the pain fattens,
Chasin shots in the same taverns,
And Watchin Raindrops pourin on them strays in the same avenues

So try not to confuse it
What you want really? the club biddies or a legacy producin, 
You- tryna fit in but the "Era" that You (k)New then 
Ain't tight no more, you just generic and a loose end!


Cos I don't know why, they always tryna tell me It won't change nothin,
Just "the way the games played" to stay frontin,
they too afraid to fail so don't say somethin,
But we stay pushin buttons!
