    “Games” by Bobby Womack
    Composers: Bobby Womack, Roger Dollarhyde
    Lyrics:
    La La La
    You see, I like all kinds of music
    No favorites
    But everything’s got to happen in its own space and time
    Games
    That people play
    They're so afraid to face the time of day
    So they run away
    You see
    They're afraid to live
    Afraid to let
    They don't wanna give unless they get
    Unless they get
    Games
    That we begin
    Once they start they never never, cease to end
    I know you heard what I said my friend
    You see
    Cause as the start
    Of every every every game
    There’s a part of you that ain’t gon’
    Never never never never change, never change
    Time
    Time has a story
    It has a story story story hmm
    And the game is all
    Yes, you see it’s all up to you
    Nobody but you
    You gotta make your moves
    Make your moves while you still can win em, win em
    But you can’t never never let the game close in on you
    OH
    Moves
    To stay ahead, well
    I'm sick and tired of them yessin' me
    Just for my bread
    I know y'all heard what I said, uh hum
    See, cause at the start
    Just like they play your favorite song
    They play it over and over and over again 'til the grooves are gone, grooves are gone
    Time oh time
    Time has a story
    It has a story, story, story, hmm
    And how you play the game
    Can’t you see that it’s all up to you
    Nobody but you
    You gotta make your moves
    Make your moves while you still can win em
    You, still got a chance brother
    But you can’t never let the moves close in
    Close in on you
    Woooo!
    Games,
    Well,
    I'm talking about those games that people play
    (The games people play, well)
    I said to myself, I said self,
    What a way, what a way
    To pass the time of day
    (The games people play, well)
    Check it out
    It’s all about those games
    (The games people play, well)
    It’s like
    I say yes
    (the games people play, well)
    She say no
    If I say stay then if she don't say go
    It’s all about, games
    (The games people play, well)
    Oh build you just to let you down
    Fallin’ in and out of love
    (The games people play, well)

    Song 🎵 ✍🏼 Willie Hutch says, “Do what’s best for you”. Bobby Womack says, “Falling in and out of love just ain’t no game, “Ooh they builds you up just to let you down”. You know he flip that spit all over the record in Bobbies uniquely kind of way he uses words. Must be hip and surly not sleep. My understanding only thing come to a sleeper is a dream.#Yearofwisdom#Blackdiamond#Game~
