End Game
The Human Link · Track 11
When the end has come, do you accept or reject?\r\nGive it another shot, or take whatever's left?\r\nWrite a story and try to end it\r\nIt's hard to finish and break connections\r\nWait a minute and let me edit\r\nWait a minute and make corrections\r\nFork in the road, which way do you choose?\r\nForward, left, right, or just lose?\r\n\r\nHow do we cope with the end of days?\r\nIt never is easy to turn and part ways\r\nHow do I stress enough that's it's the best\r\nTo move forward and leave the rest\r\nKnots come undone and bones can break\r\nPlastic hearts and melt and the earth can quake\r\nBut make no mistake about the choices you make\r\nThey're yours to own, look how you've grown\r\n\r\nIndependent is how you rep it\r\nDon't need nobody else, don't need reception\r\nBreaking point, it's coming on strong\r\nMaybe I'll break before the end of the song\r\nTake time to stop and think about what's wrong\r\nThere's no round two, don't band the gong\r\nDon't get ahead, think about what you said\r\nIf the end is here, don't just lay in bed\r\n\r\nNo cosigner it won't be long\r\nMaybe I'll break, end game is on\r\n\r\nTake the weight off your shoulder\r\nNo regrets, just start over\r\nFinish what you start\r\nWe're playing the end game\r\n\r\nIt's just the beginning\r\nThe cycle of living\r\nWe're going through the same\r\nWe're playing the end game\r\n\r\nFeel my soul, it knows where to go\r\nIt knows the right way to make me whole\r\nEmbrace in the finish, look back on the past\r\nDon't regret, or you won't last\r\nIf you dwell on what you did wrong\r\nIt will take your might and remove your strong\r\nThe finale is the best part of the show\r\nThe end is just a hint telling you where to go\r\n\r\nThe end is real, Black Eyed Peas know the deal\r\nWill i am want the world to heal and that is what I feel\r\nEmbrace in the final stage of a story\r\nIt's not the end of your whole life path\r\nI know you're listening and you think I'm corny\r\nBut I gotta touch on what the others let past\r\nGotta cover all aspects, ask us\r\nWe know what to do when opponents pass us\r\n\r\nTricky sticky lyrically, we're not cliquey in my city\r\nDon't pity, please don't diss me, please don't skip me\r\nI'm trying to get my point across to y'all\r\nI rap about everything going on\r\nIn my life, in the light, in the night, in my sight\r\nThrough the blight, through the strife, please drop the knife\r\nPick up my life where it ended last night\r\nGet on a jet, and just get right\r\n\r\nGet tight, leave tonight, under spotlight\r\nI really got a rhythm that'll make 'em think right\r\nThat's where I'm leaving off, don't get lost\r\nI'm not a boss, I rep for my cause\r\nI told you the end was just the beginning\r\nOf the rest of your life ready to set off, strike\r\nI'm whipping it tight, I'm rocking the mic\r\nPushing the throttle and I'm pumping your psych\r\n\r\nTake the weight off your shoulder\r\nNo regrets, just start over\r\nFinish what you start\r\nWe're playing the end game\r\n\r\nIt's just the beginning\r\nThe cycle of living\r\nWe're going through the same\r\nWe're playing the end game\r\n\r\nThe end is not the time to learn to survive\r\nYou learn all along, you learn to archive\r\nDoing it so big, doing it alive\r\nLooking at the day with the eyes on the prize\r\nThere is no doubt you've got a coming sunrise\r\nA brand new day, something so brand new\r\nEverything in life that you see is true\r\nEverything you see is made from you\r\n\r\nI'm spitting my thoughts on end game issues\r\nNo tissues, no crying this time\r\nMotivation to make it past the finish line\r\nBeyond the finish, beyond the end\r\nThe game of cycles is not pretend\r\nYou can capture it or you can let it fly\r\nWe persevere into the clear day sky\r\nBut float back down to Earth just in time\r\n\r\nStart something over and make it mine\r\nI cross the line, I'm good to go\r\nI'm taking cycles fast and slow\r\nI'm whipping up and implementing plans and goals\r\nTraveling the roads and taking no tolls\r\nFinish what you start and you'll be on a roll\r\nMy time is up, I've left you in control\r\nFeel my soul, it knows where to go\r\n\r\nTake the weight off your shoulder\r\nNo regrets, just start over\r\nFinish what you start\r\nWe're playing the end game\r\n\r\nIt's just the beginning\r\nThe cycle of living\r\nWe're going through the same\r\nWe're playing the end game\r\n\r\nTake the weight off your shoulder\r\nNo regrets, just start over\r\nFinish what you start\r\nWe're playing the end game\r\n\r\nIt's just the beginning\r\nThe cycle of living\r\nWe're going through the same\r\nWe're playing the end game\r\n\r\nIt's not really a game anyway\r\nThe end is a hint telling you where to go\r\nWe're just playing the end game
