It’s not a game
Country pop super catchy sad male voice Keyboard synthesizerLyrics
[INTRO]
Tell me, why we strive for flawless faces,
Chasing shadows in these perfect spaces,
It’s a burden, this weight, don’t you see?
I’m just trying to be me.
[VERSE 1]
Scrolling through a feed, everyone’s so bright,
Smiles painted on, battling the night.
Filters on my soul, but who’s behind?
Mirror reflecting a heart that’s blind.
What’s this obsession with the way we score?
Like some game of life, always wanting more.
But I’m not on this stage to steal your show,
I’m just out here trying to let my spirit glow.
[CHORUS]
Why do they act like perfect is so great?
Only so much of this I can take.
Running ‘round like it’s a high stakes race,
It's not a game, I’m just trying to find my place.
No trophies here, just a quiet heart,
Competing with the shadows, it's tearing me apart.
[VERSE 2]
Staring at the mirror, can’t you see?
All this chasing perfection is not truly free.
Voices in my head tell me to conform,
But I’m dancing in the rain, just wanting the storm.
We build up these walls, hiding who we are,
But flaws are our colors, they shine like stars.
Why do we hide what makes us unique?
Authenticity is the voice that we seek.
[CHORUS]
Why do they act like perfect is so great?
Only so much of this I can take.
Running ‘round like it’s a high stakes race,
It's not a game, I’m just trying to find my place.
No trophies here, just a quiet heart,
Competing with the shadows, it's tearing me apart.
[BRIDGE]
So let’s drop the masks, let’s breathe in deep,
Embrace our flaws, yeah, together we leap.
No more pretending, it’s time to be real,
In the messiness of life, true beauty we feel.
[CHORUS]
Why do they act like perfect is so great?
Only so much of this I can take.
Running ‘round like it’s a high stakes race,
It's not a game, I’m just trying to find my place.
No trophies here, just a quiet heart,
Comp
