MORE THAN A GAME

[Verse 1 – Male Voice (Basketball Captain)] Another day, another show Gotta keep the crowd from knowin’ what I really know Smilin’ big, playin’ my role But deep inside, man, I’m losin’ control [Verse 2 – Female Voice (Nerdy Girl)] Didn’t ask for all this fame I just walked in, now they all know my name Wish I could hide, disappear But someone won’t let me breathe this year [Pre-Chorus – Male & Female, Alternating] ( Male): They want me with her, but I want you (Female): But she’s makin’ it hard just to get through (Male ): I’m tired of playin’ in this charade (Female ): I never asked to be part of this game [Chorus – Both Together]( Male and Female) Ooh, I just wanna be me (Just let me be) But the world won’t set me free (Won’t let me breathe) Why’s it so hard to break away? Can’t they see, this ain’t a game? [Bridge – Melodic Build-Up to Rap] (Soft harmonies, then an Afrobeat-inspired rhythm starts building) (Male & Female, softly overlapping) No more hiding, no more lies… I can’t fake it, no disguise… (Beat kicks in fully—smooth transition into rap) [Jamaican Rap – Groove-Infused Flow] (Laid-back but powerful, riding the beat smoothly) (Rap Voice) Mi tired fi di pretense, tired fi di show Dem push mi left, dem push mi right, but mi seh mi nah go Real love? Dat mi need, cyaan force mi hand Mi heart already know weh it a stand Dem seh “Big man, play di role” (nah!) Mi seh “Mi heart cyaan tek di cold” (nah!) Mi know who mi want, mi nah backtrack No cheerleader talk, mi done with dat [Final Chorus – Both, Big Emotional Build-Up]( Male and Female) Ooh, I just wanna be me (Just let me be) But the world won’t set me free (Won’t let me breathe) Why’s it so hard to break away? Can’t they see, this ain’t a game? [Outro – Soft, Fading] (Male ): Tired of wearin’ a mask… (Female ): Just wanna be who I am… (Male and Female ): Maybe one day, we’ll walk free…
