After the gay anthem "Come Out", Johnny released the powerful collaboration with Dale Dunn "The Game" as the second single from his upcoming album "He was the perfect match for the song..

Interpret the lyrics as you feel like because you can understand the song in many ways and enjoy the music and the message behind it."


Lyrics

[Dale]
Little things, minor thoughts
Peace of mind can't be bought
Toss and turn so distraught
You've been trapped, you've been caught
Can't escape you're ensnared
Body numb mind aware
Try to feel, try to care
Try to move, light a flare

[Johnny]
You know I was made to be strong
It never has to go wrong
To create the life I belong
Real life ain't easy for too long
These words are made out of stone
So keep your head to your goal

This game is played by no rules
You have to cheat for them fools
They are on the top, but have faith
They know you're bout to control
All of the things they don't know
They're afraid of your strength

I know I am taking the lead
And no one's able to believe
There are men, with the will
Oh they're begging me on my feet
And I will spare them their free
I have made it, stayed the same and released them all

This game is played by no rules
You have to cheat for them fools
They are on the top, but have faith
They know you're bout to control
All of the things they don't know
They're afraid of your strength

[Dale]
So pick up! Dust off! Every time you fall
Be the brightest f*ckin light and you better blind them all
Take all you can get and give your everything
Dive from that cliff and spread your wings
Don't ever give up and lay down to die
Because how can you know, if you won't even try?

Try hard as you might, a mission you can't abort
Looking for the light, on your own no support
Can you make it right, or end up falling short?
How to face this plight, something that's left un-taught
Pieces of your mind sold and bought
So set the sky, bright on fire
Motionless on the pyre
All the memories and all the names
Yeah...you know it's just the game

[Johnny]
This game is played by no rules
You have to cheat for them fools
They are on the top, but have faith
They know you're bout to control
All of the things they don't know
They're afraid of your strength

Cassie: Killing the game! I love the positive message in all of your songs lately. It really gives people something to look to instead of the same type of songs that we hear over and over again. Thats what I try to do with my music...have a message that you know your audience can relate to, and everyone can relate to the message your getting out with The Game. There's just so much to you and I'm becoming a fan :P Keep it up!

Amy Meyer: This is such a great song, I'm really loving what you've been doing and I feel like you're going the right way about it too! It has such a positive vibe and I feel like you're being a good influence on your fans without coming across as preachy, which is a tough thing to do. But honestly, this is another really great effort and I'm looking forward to your debut album. I feel like it's gonna put you on that next level! Great work! :)
