Azad Right - Love of the Game lyrics

[Hook] You can see the pain in my eyes I'll forever have the game in my life I gotta do it til the day that I die So when it's over I can say that I tried, I tried For the love of the game, love of the game Not for the money or fame, money or fame But for the love of the game, love of the game [Verse 1: Azad Right] Yo my friends all need help Don't know what to do with themselves Out of school, out of jobs Can't do sh** about they lives Get off that plane, change your flight It ain't too late to change your life You still got time to change your grind You don't know what can make you shine Until you try The lack of pa**ion makes a man feel worthless So I'm forever grateful that I know my purpose I once thought my talent was enough to f** the rules Til' I found out that putting in work has no substitute I can't wait for the day that I get paid for what I love to do I just need to feed my team we never live comfortable Into the new school of rappers that offer unity But don't you cross that line or I'm writing an awkward eulogy Producers trying to box me in stop recruiting me I'm not compromising sh** but thanks for the opportunity Running from the norm like a cheetah with persistence You're speaking to the leader of resistance [Hook] You can see the pain in my eyes I'll forever have the game in my life I gotta do it til the day that I die So when it's over I can say that I tried, I tried For the love of the game, love of the game Not for the money or fame, money or fame But for the love of the game, love of the game [Verse 2: Azad Right] If I believe I achieve it If you isn't on my team I'll be treating what you speaking like amnesia I don't need it My idols are The Beatles And my rivals I will eat them It's vital I'm a leader for my tribe all like Aaliyah I'm not scared to fall I don't got a fear of heights I look in the mirror like damn I'm proud of who I am I never sold out when it comes to the money Hot tracks like futon I fold out Middle finger to the labels I hold out Til' I get a good deal like a coupon, move on You know I rap for the love of it why you testing me? But that don't mean I'm not trying to do it successfully I swear I satisfy you all at the same time Stand by I change lives when the game's tied Forget the money, I envy inspiration So those of you who have it should embrace it Without it we are naked it's so hard to stay creative With all of these limitations, I'll never be complacent [Hook] You can see the pain in my eyes I'll forever have the game in my life I gotta do it til the day that I die So when it's over I can say that I tried, I tried For the love of the game, love of the game Not for the money or fame, money or fame But for the love of the game, love of the game [Verse 3: Azad Right] Independent or a label doesn't matter I'm the next to hit Watch me make it either way I'm ambidextrous I'm not spiritual, my pain ain't physical Why these mother f**ing pain k**ers working miracles They say weed gon' calm me down How come sometimes I can't breathe I see things I shouldn't see These are feelings I don't need My own manager don't know how to handle me I guess you can't force no one to treat you like they family Our friendships based on money naturally that's damaging To make it in this industry you sacrifice your sanity No lie I was in my demise til I got a call that put tears in my eyes Moms told me she saw me dyin, in her vision she was crying I joined her, I couldn't fathom leaving without trying And that's the reason why I'm making my Piece of Mine f** the bliss and the charts You give me your ear, I will give you my heart [Hook] You can see the pain in my eyes I'll forever have the game in my life I gotta do it til the day that I die So when it's over I can say that I tried, I tried For the love of the game, love of the game Not for the money or fame, money or fame But for the love of the game, love of the game
