My Game

And now, the end is near
And so I face the final ousting
My prey, I'll say it clear
I'll break the deal, of which you're certain
I've joined a game that's full
I played each and ev'ry tourney
And more, much more than this, I did it my way

Combats, I've had a few
But then again, too few to mention
I did what I had to do and saw it through without exemption
I planned each called vote, each careful block along the byway
And more, much more than this, I did it my way

Yes, there were turns, I'm sure you knew
When I got bled more than I could chew
But through it all, when there was doubt
I ate it up and took the damage
I faced it all and I stood tall and did it my way

I've cursed, I've laughed and lied
I've had my fill, my share of losing
And now, as deals are off, I find it all so amusing
To think I did all that
And may I say, not in a sly way,
"Oh, no, oh, no, not me, I did it my way"

So what's his hand, what has he got?
If not himself, then he has naught
To do the things I truly need and that's no action with stealth and bleed
The record shows I won the game and did it my way!

Yes, it was my game!
