I was told life's a game and I was told not to cheat
I was told not to worry about those who did
I was told life's a game but I wasn't told the rules
So I made up my own, this way I couldn't lose
I was told life's a game but I wasn't told its goal
But I chose to live for the journey, not to live for the goal
I was told life is short but I didn't believe what I'd been told
'Cause I live for today and I will never get old
I was told - How to live
Their game - Their rules
But I will never - Never listen
This is my game - Those are my rules
I was told life's a game but it's not about luck
It's a matter of skills, it's about how hard you work
I was told life's a gamble but they tricked the cards
But good will and dedication can even the odds
I was told life's a game and I was told not to cheat
I was told not to worry about those who did
I was told life is unfair and I was told life is shit
But I soon realized it's what you make out of it
I was told - How to live
Their game - Their rules
But I will never - Never listen
This is my game - Those are my rules
I will never - Never listen
This is a game I won't lose
