Lyrics

I had to put the controller down Life ain't just a lobby where the moments pass I was crying all night, but my soul stayed last To God hit pause, it's on this one last Now I still game, but I don't run from my life I log into the world, I log out of the hype Yeah, we squad up later, but I learn one fact You can't level up scared to touch grass I used to wake up, turn the screen on Didn't talk to nobody, didn't pray, didn't search Whole day queued up in the matching suit Chasing rank like it's all I'm called to do Had a headset on, but the world shut out Friends at the door, I say now I'm not coming out Mom talking bout bills, Dad talking bout plans I was too busy holding that control and the sun came up chugging energy drinks from the same old cup GG's in the chat but my heart fell trash I was top on the board but my soul got smashed One night I heard that little voice inside Why you living like a ghost in your own real life? I had friends I ain't seen it like five whole years Had dreams on hold, had family and tears I was stuck inside quests, missing main quest calls Going AFK while my real life stalled I told God I'm fine but he saw my heart Knew I use games just to not I got a lobby and a party too Gave me peace and a daylight joy in the ground set Sunplay a little, but don't leave me behind I started taking walks, letting the sun hiss skin Calling up my folks just to check back in Said yes to a job, yes to a plan Turned the game to a hobby, not my whole lifespan Now I got both hands up, not just on a pad Praising God for the real life I almost never had Just a lobby where the moments pass I was grinding all night but my soul stayed last To God hit pause and some this won't last Now I still game but I don't run from my life I log into the world I log out of the height Yeah we swat up later but I learn one fact You can't level up scared to touch grass I was grinding all night, but my soul stained Now I still game, but I don't run from my life I log into the word, I log out of the hype Yeah, we squad up later, but I learned one fact You can't level up scared to touch grass Now I touch grass and it ain't that bad Now I still drop in with the squad some nights Still laughing the chat still clutch those fights But I don't bail on my purpose or skip what's real Just to chase one more win and how the game makes me feel I hit pause when my people need time for me Hit mute on the door To the game of that stuck in that same old loop Feeling safe in the lobby but your heart feel mute Guys not mad at your hottie, he just wants your heart Once you healthy and happy, not torn apart You can build good life, you can still press on You can rank up both in the game and your heart The first step up from that same old chair, open that door Life ain't just a lobby where the moments pass I was grinding all night, but my soul stayed last So God hit pause, that something just won't last Now I'm still game, but I don't run from my life I log into the word, I log out of the hype Yeah, we squad up later, but I learn one fact You can't level up scared to touch grass He'll hold the controller And it don't hold me Until I was lost in a scream Now Yvonne ain't free
