Скачать или смотреть The Game He Plays (Twisted) - Guston McCown

[Verse 1]
He'll crack a smile like he's heard it all,
Talks big talk with no fear of a fall
Too young to be this hard to read,
But there's reality stitched in every deed
Wears the world like a coat just right,
Spins a yarn, then ends it tight
Moves like someone who owns the land,
Even when he don't lift a hand

[Chorus]
They call him smooth, they call him slick,
Got a voice that rolls and a wit that sticks
Boys his age are known to bluff,
But he makes you laugh, and that's enough
You see his grin with a trust unearned,
While he calls the game when it's your turn

[Verse 2]
He said he knew a man out west
Though he ain't crossed the Mississip' yet
Caught the slip, but let it slide
'Cause even his lies shine with our own pride
You watch his tales like cards get dealt,
He folds the truth in what you felt

[Bridge]
He don't play soft, he plays amused,
Like the world's a puzzle he's barely used
Truth's just a coin he flips for fun,
Heads you lost, tails he's won
He sees the script, then writes his own
And laughs like he carved it into stone

[Final Chorus]
He moves like stories start from him,
Shoulders sit strong for his and our kin
A whisper thick in every town,
He don't slow up, he don't sit down
The name sticks longer than the man,
Like the dust still spinning where he ran
