Played Out

Played Out

⸻

Intro (spoken, cocky tone)

Yeah… I’ve seen this movie before. Same script, different clown.

⸻

Verse 1

Told me lies like lullabies, thought I’d sleep,

Fed me dreams, but your hustle was cheap.

Every line you spit, I already knew,

You’re a rerun show, no season two.

Tired excuses, weak disguise,

I see the truth when I look in your eyes.

Played your role, but the act got thin,

You’re a broken record — don’t spin again.

⸻

Chorus

This game is played out, I see the seams,

You can’t fool fire when it’s burned in dreams.

Your story’s tired, your mask is thin,

I’m done with the cycle — I won’t step in.

⸻

Verse 2

You thought I’d chase, thought I’d beg for more,

But I closed that chapter, locked the door.

Every fake smile, every empty vow,

You’re background noise, I’m the anthem now.

I built my crown from the ash you left,

Turned your betrayal into self-respect.

Now I walk tall where you thought I’d crawl,

I don’t need your love — I don’t need you at all.

⸻

Bridge (spoken/rap, low beat drop)

You thought I was weak, but I flipped the script.

Now you’re the echo — and I’m the hit.

⸻

Final Chorus (harder delivery, layered ad-libs)

This game is played out, I see the seams,

You can’t fool fire when it’s burned in dreams.

Your story’s tired, your mask is thin,

I’m done with the cycle — I won’t step in.

⸻

Outro (beat fades, spoken)

Yeah… you’re old news. And I’m headline
