The Rules Of The Game

We're all brought into this game without any knowledge of the rules . Some become the masters , while others play the fools .

I began by playing Chutes and Ladders , where the leader often swaps I experienced many ups and downs , the roller coaster never stops The only thing I ever learned , was that it's lonely at the top.

But then Sorry was an odd game to play If I found you in my way , I'd take great pleasure in sending you back , back from where you came . But sorry was never something I'd say !

Then I learned subconsciously capitalism playing Monopoly The art of the steal I got a raw deal Can't afford bail so I'll just stay here in jail For me this is not just an analogy

So I continued on to the game called Life , where the rules are too complicated , so I get frustrated Buy a house then take a wife

I try and I struggle then find myself in trouble ; caught in a web of my own strife

Risk is not too fun Ruling is how the game is won , by actively killing everyone The only risk is not to be out done

But with all the games in life I've played , there's one that's still the best I still never learned all those stupid rules ... perhaps that's why I'm so stressed ' Cuz I'm just out here playing Checkers , while everyone else is playing Chess
