about

Song Origin: MFGB is about questioning “the game” of love. I wrote it first semester in my 1st year of University while feeling edgy and unsure about the pool of guys around me. Not wanting to feel objectified, taken for granted, and using self-preservation to be empowered. It’s also a bit cheeky and basically says if you want my love you’re going to have to show me. (Swannanoa, NC, U.S.A, 2014).

lyrics

MFGB (The Mother Fucking Game Bitches)

I want you when you look away
Don't show and the game’s in play
My body seen as a pawn
Watch out cause my mind is lethal

Turn out the lights
Bodies out of sight
See my shape without your eyes
It's on

Ride ride ride, till the window shows our colors
Ride ride ride, I'm seen but am not easily captured
Play again and see

I watch your moves
You’re charming
Tension builds walk faster
Badadada

Turn out the lights
Bodies out of sight
See my shape without your eyes
It's on

Ride ride ride, till the window shows our colors
Ride ride ride, I'm seen but am not easily captured
Play again and see

The game is over
Both kings are dead and gone
Battle shocked out of breath
Static bodies

Turn out the lights
Bodies out of sight
See my shape without your eyes
It's on

Ride ride ride, till the window shows our colors
I'm seen but am not easily captured
I want to ride with you
