Life Is Not a Game

by PoeticJustice   Sep 29, 2007


What is the price of pleasure? Better yet,
What is the price of pain? It seems that were paying for both,
Treating life like a game
And it seems that love is also a game and death is a game,
And money, hate, lies, and work are just more forms of a game
And is that not what they say?
That you should play the game to win, fu-k whoever else that is playing
But wait let me propose a thought perceived as Crazy Talk, but does it seem like it?
To look at things from a different view-and ask if it more than seems righteous
Just calling it Self Defense does not excuse fighting
Just calling them White lies does not excuse lying
And in this so called game, where does peace fall in?
Cant we all live in harmony free from judgment of sin,
Or choice in religion?
Choose this or choose that, fu-k it, I wont choose shit!
Wont choose to play this game, or read a book im told to,
Im going to for-real change this game,
With a little help from the truth
Because truly, I think were all sick of being preached about the game
Do this and do that, its just making everyone insane
So once again I propose another thought for your brain:
Lets just live a life we love, free from calling it a game.
