zach brunotte - devil's game lyrics

[intro]
yo, i had this dream like
everything was goin’ for me, i had it all
and i heard this voice say
“this could all be yours, but how far you willing to go?”

[verse 1]
some say i’ll never make it, but i’m keeping faith
i’m tryna’ be the greatest, but i promise that i’ll never change
i’m putting work in, every single day
sleeping in the studio, just laying tracks, doin’ my thing
yeah, i’m on my way
i got the feeling that some things about to change
i meet some folks that wanna’ put me in the game
they like, “here sign this deal”
i ain’t even have to think
i cash that check and i’m rocking gold chains
my time is so close i can finally taste the fame
they hand me lyrics, put me in the booth and say
“just spit this here, you’ll be riding on a new wave”
“then hit this here, these drugs will take you to a new place”
“then hit this here, ’cause shorty really wanna bang”
i hit the stage, the whole crowd chants my name
i guess i finally made it man, i’m feeling great

[chorus 1]
some say i’ll never make it, but i’m keeping faith
i’m tryna’ be the greatest, but i promise that i’ll never change
some say i’ll never make it, but i’m on my way
and man i’m hanging with the greatest, so you ’bout to know my name
you ’bout to know my name, you better know my name
i’m hanging with the greatest, so you know i’m on my way
i’m on my way to fame, yeah, i’m on my way
i’m hanging with the greatest, but some things about to change

[verse 2]
how far you willing to go, to glitter gold
you willing to go and sell her your soul
lay down your cards, willing to fold?
let it unfold
yeah, here’s how the story unfolds
it’s about to get dark, and real dang cold
see that night, late after the show
everybody wild’n out, but man i’m blinded by the glow
i head backstage, we snorting cocaine
some things pop off, so i let them shots rang (pop, pop)
ears start to ring, dude’s on the floor
i watch his blood drain, i don’t feel no shame
for this other brother’s pain, have i went and gone insane?
sold my soul for the riches and the fame
tryna’ be great, i was tryna’ be great
but i sold my soul to the devil for some dreams
changed my ways for material things
what’s the point of being great if in the end i’m just a slave

[chorus 2]
some said i’d never make it, but i kept the faith
strived to be the greatest, and i promised that i’d never change
some said i’d never make it, but i made a way
and now i’m mentioned with the greatest, everybody knows my name
everybody knows my name, everybody knows my name
i’m one of the greatest ’cause i played the devil’s game
played the devil’s game, yeah i played the devil’s game
on earth i am the greatest, but i’ll never be the same

[verse 3]
i’ll never be the same, yeah, i’ll never be the same
i went and flipped the script, and changed my ways up for this game
when i signed that record deal, i just saw the thousands
and i knew i needed it so i could help my family out and
i thought of all the good i’d do, i’d prolly help the poor
put my kids in private school, buy a house up in the hills
but everything started taking off so fast
’til my life was out of control, and i just crashed
see any line of business can make a man corrupt
if you put your trust in man, and don’t trust your gut
put your trust in god, decide what you stand for
figure out your purpose homie, what you really here for?
if you don’t choose your purpose, somebody else will
if you don’t stand firm in it, the devil swinging deals
i was living dreams for material things
thank god i woke up, now i can live this life for real

[chorus 3]
and if i never make it, i’ll still keep the faith
i don’t need to be the greatest, living life full of shame
if i never make it, i’ll find a better way
you can’t buy me out with the fortune and the fame
i ain’t about to change, i ain’t changing my ways
for the fortune and the fame or material things
don’t play the devil’s game, don’t play the devil’s game
on earth you’ll be the greatest, but you’ll never be the same

wake up
