[Intro]
Yeah, talkin' 'bout the game, the way they play
Guess I gotta say what's real today
[Verse 1]
Met her in the evening, swore she was sincere
Smile so sweet, but I sensed the fear
Playing hide and seek, she like the chase
Actin' like she wants me, then she’s gone without a trace
[Pre-Chorus]
They say they don't need no man’s paper
But then they call you later
Expect you to pay and stay
While they say "I got my own" anyway
[Chorus]
It's a game, it’s a front, it's a masquerade
Women playin’ games, puttin’ hearts to the blade
Two-faced in the mirror, switchin’ up the mask
Stay or run, the truth's what they ask
[Verse 2]
Caught in the middle of the truth and lies
One foot in, one foot out, they hide the disguise
Promises broken, but they don’t see the cost
In their own mirror, love's all lost
[Pre-Chorus]
They say they don't need no man’s paper
But then they call you later
Expect you to pay and stay
While they say "I got my own" anyway
[Chorus]
It's a game, it’s a front, it's a masquerade
Women playin’ games, puttin’ hearts to the blade
Two-faced in the mirror, switchin’ up the mask
Stay or run, the truth's what they ask
[Bridge]
I just wanted real, not a fake illusion
But what I got was confusion
Betrayal wrapped in pretty lies
Seen the truth through the disguise
[Outro]
So now I see through all the games
Gonna wash away the pain
Find someone who’s true and kind
Leave these faces all behind
Yeah, real love’s what I'll find someday
