Big Snoop dog
This game is cold
Ya dig?
Everywhere I go
And everyone who knows me
Knows that I would stand alone
The game (the game), the game (the game), the game (the game)
We wanna roll, baby, more maybe
I gave it everything we never swing it harder
The farther I saw the room was spinning
Higher a condom was nearing, my name heard him cheer it
And the bodies started dropping soon as I dropped my lyric
Faked it 'til I made it
And you try to break it
Now you try to take it back
But you know that
I've been doing my thing
I've been running my game
And you know I won't look back
You know that
Everywhere I go
And everyone who knows me
Knows that I would stand alone
It's all part of the game (the game)
The game (the game), the game (the game), the game (the game)
I'm standing on my toes
To the sky I go
And you know you're the one to think
It's all part of the game (the game)
The game (the game), the game (the game), the game
We all play it the same
I don't want to be vindictive a dick addict addictive
But if you curse a conspire my versus they will spit fire at ya
Trash me that's simple my lyrics think I won't hear it
You careers in Disney Land did you say something? No? Pardon my
Stronger 'cause you made me
You will never faze me
You can never take me down
But you know that
I've been doing my thing
I've been running my game
And you know I won't look back
You know that
Everywhere I go
And everyone who knows me
Knows that I would stand alone
It's all part of the game (the game)
The game (the game), the game (the game), the game (the game)
I'm standing on my toes
To the sky I go
And you know you're the one to think
It's all part of the game (the game)
The game (the game), the game (the game), the game
We all play it the same
Yeah, the game
I ball like a baller
Clock G's, every day ya dig?
My prerogative, so I'm living positive
Blind shine like I'm studied
You don't really want it
Pull a three in your, face cold blooded
Hit it will I enter? Diller?
Make believe or for real a Laker and a baker
Hell ya, black and yellow, he's a Steeler
And it's all how I get down to it
It's all part of the game
I thought you knew it?
Everywhere I go
And everyone who knows me
Knows that I would stand alone
It's all part of the game (the game)
The game (the game), the game (the game), the game (the game)
I'm standing on my toes
To the sky I go
And you know you're the one to think
It's all part of the game (the game)
The game (the game), the game (the game), the game
We all play it the same
Play it the same
The game, the game
We all play it the same
Play it the same
The game, the game
It's all part of the game
The lyrics to Snoop Dogg's song The Game speak to the concept of perseverance and making it through tough times. The artist reflects on a past relationship where he was told he was weak for wanting to move on. Despite these criticisms and attempts to break him, he was able to rise above and achieve success on his own terms. He had to fake it till he made it and refused to look back on the past. Everywhere he goes, he stands alone, but it is all part of the game.
The chorus repeats the phrase "It's all part of the game" as a reminder that life is full of challenges and obstacles that you have to overcome to succeed. He is standing on his toes, reaching to the sky, and playing the game the same way as everyone else. The song serves as an anthem of inspiration for anyone struggling to find their way.
Line by Line Meaning
Everywhere I go
No matter where I am
When everyone who knows me
Even when people who are familiar with me are around
Knows that I would stand alone
They understand that I am independent and strong
It's all part of the game
This is all a part of life's challenges and struggles
The game, the game, the game
This phrase emphasizes the concept of life as a game that we all play
When you said I could move on and go
When you gave me permission to leave
You said I'm weak and it shows
Your opinion is that I am weak and it is evident
I couldn't go on without you
I felt like I couldn't continue life without your presence
Now you're sitting in your house alone
You are now alone in your residence
Wondering why I left home
You are curious about my reasons for leaving
And I'm hoping that you know
I hope you are aware
Had to fake it till I made it
I had to pretend to be okay until I actually became okay
And you try to break it
And you attempted to ruin my progress
Now you try to take it back
Now you want to undo your previous actions
But you know that
But you are aware that
I've been doing my thing
I have been focusing on my own goals and interests
I've been running my game
I have been living life on my own terms
And you know I won't look back
And you understand that I will not dwell on the past
I'm standing on my toes
I am standing on my tiptoes
To the sky I go
I am reaching upwards
And you know you're the one to think
You believe that it is because of you
We all play it the same
Indicates that everyone experiences life's difficulties
As you looked, you saw me walking out
When you saw me leaving
You tried to knock me down
You attempted to thwart my efforts to leave
Now you're sitting in the mess you made
You are currently dealing with the repercussions of your actions
Now you're feeling my pain
You are experiencing the same emotions that I went through
I'm stronger cause you made me
I am tougher because of the challenges you put me through
You will never faze me
You will not be able to rattle me
You can never take me down
You cannot bring me to a lower level
'Cause you know that
Because you are aware
Everywhere I go
No matter where I am
When everyone who knows me
Even when people who are familiar with me are around
Knows that I would stand alone
They understand that I am independent and strong
It's all part of the game
This is all a part of life's challenges and struggles
I'm standing on my toes
I am standing on my tiptoes
To the sky I go
I am reaching upwards
And you know you're the one to think
You believe that it is because of you
We all play it the same
Indicates that everyone experiences life's difficulties
Everywhere I go
No matter where I am
When everyone who knows me
Even when people who are familiar with me are around
Knows that I would stand alone
They understand that I am independent and strong
It's all part of the game
This is all a part of life's challenges and struggles
I'm standing on my toes
I am standing on my tiptoes
To the sky I go
I am reaching upwards
And you know you're the one to think
You believe that it is because of you
We all play it the same
Indicates that everyone experiences life's difficulties

We have only just seen the video for the first time here in the uk. I didn't know that the song was released over a year ago. It's an amazing song as soon as I heard it yesterday on tv I had to buy it on iTunes!
