    Story Behind the Song
    This track just puts a lump in my throat whenever I hear it. Just sick of watching people throw thier lives a way...being casualties of "The Game". And then making thier families victims as well. I'm coming from a positive perspective on this though. Just want people to know there's nothing they can't do. That you don't have to settle for less.

    Lyrics
    This Ol' Game
    By King Live-D & Casanova Jones

    chorus
    What you gon' do when the game is over
    Bullets on the side of yo Sixty Five impala
    Ya mama come around and she holla holla
    Ma baby's dead, she holds ya head
    On the tits that she fed you from
    And ya wife is runnin 'round half naked
    tryin to figure out how to make a man outta ya son

    verse 1
    Money be the deal wit no hesitation
    I know yo' money new cause they got the big faces
    Rollin on Dubs wit a bunch o' ammunition
    No education no meditation

    Puttin Bullet in bruthas cause you ran outta patience
    Lying to yourself wit that self medication

    Straight bumpin my hits listenin to my shits
    With a knee jerk reaction
    Sittin in the back downin cognac Wit a bounch o' dirty ashtrays

    You got the pimp ass gear
    but you gotta clean yo dirty as man
    Chasin head pain wit a hand full o' aspirin
    Bet I never see yo ass skiing up in Aspen

    Eatin 5 star meals but you got it out the trash can
    I know it aint easy growin up po and Afro American
    But its gotta be a better way to get our nourishment
    Come on man stop eatin out the trashcan

    I can't lie I grew up in the dirt too
    So I hope you know I'm feelin you
    But damn……..What we gon do?

    chorus

    verse 2
    My people listen up quick
    As I grip the mic and foreshadow things to come
    People dumb where I'm from
    A little south of Seattle

    Where kids love to battle over petty shit
    And I admit it still get me rattled

    Used run with a young gun by the name a John
    Calm blond with an attitude and bomb in his palm
    We used to rip the bong on break until we went back on

    He was a small time hustler but a self proclaimed don

    But he was wrong but he kept on
    I tried to keep his head out of the clouds
    His response was "Get gone
    'cause shits wrong in your head, Blizz. Anyway you a pawn
    On this chess board of life where I'm the king like Kong"

    I know you thinkin it's on but no alarm for Casanova
    I'm just sorry that I gotta ruin this song
    And tell you how I grabbed his arm
    When I saw him in the pallbearers'….gone
    All around the world the same song
    All around the world the same song
    Well come on come on

    bridge
    Gimmie some time we gon' get out
    I know that your tired
    Of this Old Game

    You knew my business
    The first time we kissed
    I cannot dis my homies

    You usin' big words now droppin that slang now
    Cause you got a lot o' time alone wit ya brain now
    Aint it a shame how the C.O's always keep beatin on you
    But what you gon do

    verse 3
    What you gonna do when the game stop?
    Drop to your knees and ask please for another shot?
    Naw this ol game don't work that way you betta recognize When you come to play you come pay

    And it aint just bullets
    It's bombs and box cutters
    Leavin the big apple cluttered
    I don't wana hear you mutter under your breath

    How death aint a topic for the open…
    Stutterin under your breath
    d..d..Don't you have respect for the broken and stolen souls Well yeah I suppose

    But I know communication bridges gaps and holes
    Come on topic of discussion what's the cause
    Envy, greed and fear written right on the wall,
    Bath room stalls, high school halls in your neighborhood malls
    They sellin substances like cigarettes to kill all y'all

    I hope you read between the lines and catch the sublime Casanova, King Live takin this game to infinite overtime
