It is obvious that we find ourselves craving stability in our journey through life. The phase of that stage is the universal human experience of to hunt for a place that feels like home. Further, achieving it is not as wonderful as we imagine. It happens when you realize that life’s constancy is not going to be unbiased or effortless, but that it is loaded with repetitions and responsibilities that comprise a cycle of the same routine day after day.
Monard is an artist who explores the depths of daily existence and achieves this attitude in the single ‘The Game’. The song is about realizing and accepting our place in life. It talks about understanding that we’re part of society’s system and how we fit into the regular patterns and expectations of life. ‘The Game’ is not just a melody; it is a mirror for our lives, reflecting the contrast of our desires. We try to get away from our everyday routines but end up stuck in them. However, accepting this gives us a quiet strength. By recognizing our role in life, we could control our choices and where we fit in the world. Music is about to embrace the ordinary, to find the beauty in the usual, and to recognize it in repetition. In the responsibilities, there is reward. It is to remind us that life is not going to always be fair; it is ours to live and own.
Through ‘The Game, Monard invites listeners to reflect on their own lives, to find comfort in the familiar, and to take pride in the steadiness that they have built. It is evidence of a human’s spirit’s courage and ability to adapt and thrive within the framework of everyday life. Hence, let us own our part in the game.
