A Game Named Life-Akala/Mai Khalil

[00:03.55][Verse 1] [00:13.51]A game named life where fools make the rules [00:15.99]And poets paint pictures with words that change nothing [00:18.57]Survival of the fittest they say, are they sure? [00:20.80]Or just the survival of those with the will to kill more? [00:23.63]The heart that thinks itself purely, surely is not hungry? [00:26.21]Because hungry knows too well, the world is ******* [00:28.86]And nature is indifferent to the suffering of infants [00:31.48]That think ourselves growing human beings and something special [00:34.39]But as fate would have it, I ain't buying the idea of fate [00:36.88]It seems we shape every place that we grace with hate [00:39.87]Depending which side of the fence or which epoch [00:42.55]You die a slow death or be singing from the treetops [00:44.72]Praise for the status quo, cus you're comfortable [00:47.58]Those who lost out in this lottery, ha, **** 'em all [00:49.92]Nice with this roll of the dice, I'm quite proud and [00:52.60]I don't know if we will ever roll another time round [00:55.53][Hook - Mai Khalil] [00:57.00]It's a game named life [00:59.32]In a game named life [01:01.52]In a game named life [01:04.00]In a game named life [01:07.60]In a game named life [01:09.11]Where the dice decide where I go [01:10.48]There I go, in a game named life [01:14.09]I dream to be let go [01:16.12][Verse 2] [01:17.60]A game named life, where fools make the rules [01:19.87]And poets paint pictures with words that change nothing [01:22.50]Young child soldier, revolver not bluffing [01:25.29]In a game that teaches children to kill but can't love them [01:27.63]What is the journey of a bullet from the ground until we pull it? [01:30.46]A piece of earth made blow holes in souls [01:33.25]I'd like to know does a child choose in its mother's core or before as just a sperm to be born in war? [01:37.69]Does another sperm choose greatness floating in his father's pleasure? [01:41.40]Or does the game only begin when the umbilical's severed? [01:44.18]\n Is that the reason babies born screaming? [01:46.50]Because they know they left the spirit world [01:48.02]To live here with no meaning among demons [01:50.00]That see them as nothing more than chess pieces [01:51.63]In a game named life where even the winners stop breathing [01:54.10]And the whole thing is as tedious as a tale that is told twice [01:57.21]We clone life but don't even own our own life [01:59.19][Hook - Mai Khalil] [02:01.23]In a game named life [02:03.41]In a game named life [02:05.93]In a game named life [02:08.85]In a game named life [02:11.59]In a game named life [02:12.85]Where the dice decide where I go [02:15.74]There I go, in a game named life [02:18.27]I dream to be let go [02:22.67]Sacrifice, pain and strife [02:28.90]The game named life is over [02:30.39]Before we even know [02:32.26][Verse 3] [02:32.62]Life is a mirror always looking at you [02:34.24]It's not what we say or think, we are just what we do [02:37.42]With the time that is given it comes with no ribbon [02:39.90]Because life is not a gift to everyone that's living [02:42.27]Most of the moves are made before you took your first go [02:45.31]Some got a huge head start before their first role [02:47.93]So you could play with more skill than the other players [02:50.87]They will still be head because the past generations [02:52.79]Accumulated spaces so they could practice with acres [02:55.57]Illuminated arrangements so they could manage retainers [02:58.26]Are you foolish? They ain't racing we're chasing the pay slip [03:00.63]So they have won before even the game starts unless we change it [03:03.46]To another set of rules different from the fools [03:06.30]But to do that we are going to have to use their tools [03:08.93]And therein lies our greatest dilemma [03:11.81]In this game named life, who's playing it better?
