Spy Games Gone Awry
Jay Z

Intro:

Yeah, uh, it’s Hov, we live in a world of shadows,
Where secrets whisper low, and deception flows like arrows.

Verse 1:
In the city of smoke, we played our part,
Undercover agents with cold, black hearts.
The truth was a weapon, sharp as a knife,
But in this game of espionage, you might lose your life.

Got the intel, I paid for the scoop,
But now I’m in deep; I’m caught in the loop.
Trust is a luxury, and lies are cheap,
In this world of darkness, it’s the secrets we keep.

Verse 2:
Dodging the cameras, got night vision on,
Thought we had the data, but now it’s all gone.
The mission was simple, a clean take-out,
But now my crew’s scattered, man, what’s it all about?

The double agent’s smile turned my blood to ice,
In the game of chess, I rolled the wrong dice.
They had eyes in the sky, tracking my every move,
Can’t stay in the shadows; I’ve got something to prove.

Verse 3:
Running through the alleys, every corner’s a trap,
My past haunts me like a phantom in the gap.
Plans unraveling as we race against time,
In this labyrinth of lies, survival’s a crime.

The rendezvous failed; the drop was a bust,
Now I’m shaking hands with fear and mistrust.
This game ain’t for the weak; it’s ruthless and raw,
Now I’m fighting for my life, looking down the maw.

Hook:
Spy games gone awry, trust is a lie,
In a world of shadows, I just wanna survive.
Every turn, every twist, every move, a surprise,
Caught up in the web, just trying to stay alive.

Break:
(Spoken)
Yeah, this is what it’s come to,
In the land of espionage, where few make it through.
Every whisper, every turn, can lead to a fall,
In this deadly game, man, you gotta stand tall.

Bridge:
Now I’m a ghost in the night, unseen and unheard,
Silent steps echo, not a single word.
I’m pushing through the chaos, fighting the fate,
In this world of secrets, we operate late.

Outro:
Yeah, the game’s over now, the chips have all fallen,
In the depths of the night, can you hear the calling?
Lessons learned hard, can’t escape the past,
In the world of espionage, not everyone lasts.
