The Game Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴

Maybe it's time I change religions on you turning Christians
To a Muslim, turn a Buddhist to a Christian
Tell 'em catholic Ronnie been it
Sipping red wine inside the pentagon
Writing sinister lines till all the ink inside my pen is gone
Jeremy Lin got the world watching ESPN
My sick porno obsession got me watching these lesbians
Explain I'm a sick fucking psychotic master
The mic is my sword the booth is your casket
I'm sitting inside the classic 6 4 with the ratchet
Throwing up west side is my worst fucking habit
Only snap backs and egos eyes looking through peep holes
Is why I don't trust no one except God and Tim Tebow
Living my destiny poppin' pills high as fuck
Fucking bitches in the club holding my space bottle up
I think it's time you salute me or shoot me
Either way I'm the star of this motherfucking booth

They say I got a suicidal tendency murdering my enemies verse
It ain't no questioning thunder under my shirt
Fuck around and you'll be up under the dirt
This automatic will turn your home into a hearse
Worse case scenario pipe bound your burial
They gonna have to bury your twice
The scary cat on this night life
The golf stream vibing what the weed is top flight
My PO already know I'm a motherfucking flight risk
Heavy chain light risk pay cash for everything that white bitch
She got it, she got it, that's my words the oriental
Sixty two minutes they got it looking like murder all
I'm leaning hard in that flat back turbo charge
Coupe on twenty fours pedal to the floor
Hundred shots of that nigga still got plenty more
Slim the mobster am I is really made Uzi
We turn your block to a motherfucking movie

Lights, cameras, action niggas ready to shoot you
But these ain't lights ain't cameras pointed at you
Blocked off the scene cause your scenes don't move me
Will turn your block into a motherfucking movie

Rap boy we were kids we were the Lord of the Rings
Rep in the full train smoke in solely green
I know other case burst scenes there's no more men of honor
I might made my super armor running from karma
The good die young no country for old men
There will be blood deeper than leviathan
And my platoon full of bad lieutenants
X-men, expendables, bad company, criminals
Crush goons with a kanga, surfing in the rainbow
48 hours to kill Bill, Cash and Tango
Brave heart, battleship, devil's out to kill with the
Passion of Christ, it's a wonderful life
Miami Vice what to get right
It's midnight in the garden the good and evil are crashing
Ordinary people, lethal weapon without 4 sequels
Above the hunger games
The gods must be crazy ricochet through the purple ring
Because the devil wears prada
The dead presidents can turn a goodfella to a godfather
Animal house, standing to live with the case speech
Leonardo DiCaprio on the beach
Oceans Eleven, if all dogs go to heaven
The silence of the lambs, son of sam 7, I am legend
Fuck this new jack city I'm on the midnight express
With this American History X

Off the dome and I'm talking slick as petroleum
Because I don't fuck with pens unless I'm rolling on some eulogium
Niggas preaching hate from Napoleon nigga slowly throwing salt on my game
Like fluorine or sodium on a door
But holy I'm only in it for the cash part
Thinking fuck the world something like a pornstar with a passport
With officer walking and my side mirror in
He don't like me cause I'm dark as an nigerian
Rocking alot of juries smart as a librarian
In the look in the american eyes said I'd bury him
I said it before don't ignore it again too
Hands on the 9 like you couldn't attend due
Life's a hooker the hall raised me
This poor baby was born crazy
Put in the middle of drug wars
Thug lord and judges tryin' to call case me
Lord save me it's gone Swayze the movie

Lights, cameras, action niggas ready to shoot you
But these ain't lights ain't cameras pointed at you
Blocked off the scene cause your scenes don't move me
Will turn your block into a motherfucking movie

Lights, cameras, action niggas ready to shoot you
But these ain't lights ain't cameras pointed at you




Blocked off the scene cause your scenes don't move me
Will turn your block into a motherfucking movie

The Game turns 25 today!
I remember watching it on vhs at my second house
I wonder if my dad bought it
Love Michael Douglas and it's dark twisted cat and mouse approach
This was David Fincher's summary of the 1990s soulless ness; it made more money box office wise than Fight Club
It's stunningly well-made, with a haunting, heart-racing score from Howard Shore and Fincher building a visual contrast using still shots and slow-mos in the first half, to a more frenetic and chaotic vibe once it hits full tilt
Some of it stretches the sense of realism, since it feels a bit fantastical at points particularly the ending
The film skirts the boundary between legitimately terrifying and ridiculous enough to be funny
It sends a mixed message on how to perceive the rich
Perhaps the gap between the haves and have-nots is just unbridgeable — the game is rigged from the start, as much as we don’t want it to be
Still an intense nail biter

@therantingboy

Underrated masterpiece. I saw this movie as a kid renting it from blockbusters based only on the cover art and the most cryptic plot summary. One of the few times I saw a movie knowing next to nothing about it. It was so so good.

@MrFooqair

That's the best way to watch a movie. Speaking of Blockbuster in the 90's, a friend saw Boxing Helena (1993) and told me, go rent it and don't read the back. Just watch it. It was a trip not knowing what I was getting into!

@realjameset7147

I seen it at a $1 theater.

@00allison00

@@realjameset7147oh man I haven’t thought of the $1 theater in years. Saw so many good movies that way.

@mckdogdrums3543

There’s just something I love about 90s - early 2000s atmospheric music for the movie trailers. They just don’t make trailers like they used to. It’s like an open book nowadays, but this movie is a gem.

@MrSham3less

I was about to accept the ending and then there was another twist 😂 Absolutely love this movie! Older movies just hits different

@JeePsSsS

Incredible ending, so tense 😬

@TheTengoCalor

I felt so sorry for him because he was so stressed out lol... I know he had to go to the Dr and get his blood pressure check after that lol

@PoisonRemedy89

Movies back in the day didn't cared if they hurt someone's feelings

@erfanmaruf1296
