THE GAME

NOTE Please do not use any part of my songs OR videos without my permission. I work hard on my songs and videos and have noticed several people lifting segments off my videos and using them on their own videos. Please STOP doing that, I painstakingly found and put these clips together for my song, as I do all my songs!! All my material is Copyrighted with ASCAP. NO USE OF A.I. IN ANY FORM IS EVER USED IN ANY SONGS OR VIDEOS ON MY CHANNEL! Howdy guys hopefully everyone is doing well. This is a futuristic song that I wrote in 1999 of what this world could devolve into and it looks like my fears may have been correct. On it's face It's about a failing marriage and the games people play to try and ignore the failure of their marriage. They know it's not working but they still play the game. The song however has an underlying message as well about the failure of civilization. Some of us think that life is a game and the rich and powerful should always rule and be in power but I do not believe in that sick way of thinking. All people should have a voice about their life and safety and happiness!! That's all I will say on the matter!✌🏼 Charlie and I had a great time recording this song and when I made the video for it last year, I threw the kitchen sink at it! Lots and lots of special effects and eye and ear candy for everyone! It really has a 80's & 90's feel to it! I ended the video like I think this horrific game will end for us all if we continue to go down the path that we are currently on right now. It will not end well for anyone! We will all lose the game!! Including the evil millionaires & billionaires that will try to hide in their bunkers! We are know all aware of your Games! So take care, stay safe, and peace out!✌🏼 “THE GAME" FEEL IT IN MY VEINS,       FEEL IT IN MY BRAIN, FEEL IT WITH EACH WORD YOU SAY,        AND THE SUBTLE WAY YOU TRY TO HIDE IT, SEE IT IN YOUR EYES, SEE IT IN YOUR LIES,      SEE IT WITH EACH BREATH YOU TAKE,      AND EACH SMILE YOU FAKE IS WRAPPED INSIDE IT,         TIME IS RUNNING OUT MY FRIEND,          THERE’S NO REASON TO PRETEND,      EVERYTHING MUST END, LOVE’S A LONG AND WINDING ROAD,            SOMETIMES IT’S EASIER TO FOLD,          THAN TO PLAY A LOSING HAND, SENSE IT IN YOUR TOUCH, WHEN YOU DRINK TOO MUCH, SENSE IT WITH EACH LABORED KISS,  YET YOU STILL INSIST THERE’S NOTHING WRONG,   HEAR IT IN YOUR VOICE, WITH EACH LOOK THAT YOU AVOID, HEAR IT IN EACH ARGUMENT, BUT YOU’RE STILL CONTENT TO LET IT GO ON,    TIME IS RUNNING OUT MY FRIEND, THERE’S NO REASON TO PRETEND, EVERYTHING MUST END, LOVE’S A LONG AND WINDING ROAD, SOMETIMES IT’S EASIER TO FOLD, THAN TO PLAY A LOSING HAND, TIME IS RUNNING OUT MY FRIEND, THERE’S NO REASON TO PRETEND, EVERYTHING MUST END, LOVE’S A GAME WE ALL MUST PLAY, AND SOMETIMES WE LOSE OUR WAY, TO FIND OURSELVES AGAINST THE WALL…     BY JIM VALDES © 1999
