Like a lot of the other comments are saying, I think this mainly about voyeurism. If the song was about his girlfriend, then why would he use the word spy. If you are a spy it means you shouldn't be caught, that is kind of the whole point, and if you are a voyeur, the whole point of the pleasure you get from it, is the fact that the other people don't know you are watching them. See a bit of a connection there?

Not just a collection of letters
You'd better get to know my gamertag
Learn and get used to my name
'Cause I'm staying
Right here and I'm feeling better than ever
Still the only way is up
As long as I'm here and that's not gonna change
It's funny how it turns out when you're not expecting it
Still remember playing Call of Duty 4 without ejecting it
Every moment I had free
I was on it day and night
And although I'm not proud of it
It even caused a couple fights
And free for all was the mode for me
Friends list like forever alone
Being stuck on MT
But the minute that I made that gamertag
The track to the top
One way, no turning back
One destination
I'm always tip-toeing closer
Towards it everyday
For better or worse
Now hundreds of thousands of you
Have grown to know my name
And now I thank you cause my life
Will never be told to be the same
And all of this I owe to a video game?
This new found popularity still got my mind racing
Can't even sign online without finding
Four or five brand new friend invitations
And through it all one things holds tried and true
You made your own name, what you do with it is up to you
Not just a collection of letters
You'd better get to know my gamertag
Learn and get used to my name
'Cause I'm staying
Right here and I'm feeling better than ever
Still the only way is up
As long as I'm here and that's not gonna change
[Brysi]
Yeah
I put the disk in the tray
Kick back, relax, C-O-D all day
Voting on a map everybody starts screaming
"Hey look we're playing with Brysi, I can't believe it!"
They know my name, they know what I do
Machinima director look me up on YouTube
Playing video game for a living, kind crazy
Used to play for fun but now I play because they pay me
I've come a long way since back in the day
My original gamertag wasn't easy to say
B-1-2-Y-4-N-5-1-M-0-N
It's no wonder why I could never make any friends
But then my channel blew up after the Black Ops rap
I got some Microsoft points and changed my gamertag
Not just a collection of letters, but something true
Something from the heart: "Brysi Loves You"

Learn and get used to my name
'Cause I'm staying
Right here and I'm feeling better than ever
Still the only way is up
As long as I'm here and that's not gonna change
My name, I made it for myself
Yeah, I did it for myself
Then I made it mean something to everybody else
Now the people I've looked up to are asking me for help
And that's gotta be the greatest feeling that I've ever felt
But I started as a noob, and yeah it's true that it was tough
I dedicated myself and through practice I came up
My name started to climb the scoreboards and lobbies
From last to first, the roles reversed, they start to recognize me
'Cause at the end of the day, it's about the video game
About proving yourself on the most awesome stage
Now tell them your name, and go give them hell
In this gaming community that we built for ourselves
'Cause it's not about the sub count
Or how many friends you can get
It's not the number of favorites
Or the tournament checks
It's not the best editing
Or the YouTube hits
Just me alone with my controller
Trying to prove that it's
Not just a collection of letters
You'd better get to know my gamertag
Learn and get used to my name
'Cause I'm staying
Right here and I'm feeling better than ever

Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
Hayalperest
Hayalperest
This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere.
In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.

@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday".
I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.
