Calling the Game

Текст песни

[Verse 1] I woke with a map on the kitchen floor Three red circles and an unlocked door The coffee went cold, but I stayed on track Packed what I knew and left doubt in the back [Pre-Chorus] Every wrong turn leaves a mark I can read Every small loss plants a stronger seed [Chorus] Life is a game, but I’m not here to hide I’ll take the next chance with my heart open wide If I fall, I’ll learn where the ground gave way Then I’ll stand up and play another day Life is a game, and I’m choosing my side With a pocket of courage and nowhere to hide No perfect score, no straight line to claim I’m still in the fight, and I’m calling the game [Verse 2] I missed the last train by a minute or two Found a late-night diner and a table for two A stranger said, “Kid, keep your hands on the wheel The road gets honest when the future feels real” [Pre-Chorus] Every closed gate shows a path I missed Every hard goodbye makes a stronger fist [Chorus] Life is a game, but I’m not here to hide I’ll take the next chance with my heart open wide If I fall, I’ll learn where the ground gave way Then I’ll stand up and play another day Life is a game, and I’m choosing my side With a pocket of courage and nowhere to hide No perfect score, no straight line to claim I’m still in the fight, and I’m calling the game [Bridge] Let the clock keep turning Let the old plans bend I don’t need the ending To begin again One breath, one move One promise I can keep The climb is mine to make The dream is mine to meet [Final Chorus] Life is a game, and I’m out in the light Turning every setback into fuel for the night If I fall, I’ll learn where the ground gave way Then I’ll stand up and play another day Life is a game, and I’m choosing my side With a pocket of courage and nowhere to hide No perfect score, no straight line to claim I’m still in the fight, and I’m calling the game [Outro] One more move, one more day I’m still here, I’m on my way
