lyrics

I’m on level 27
Trying to defeat the villain
But I can’t
I’ve been at it for a while
Tryna’ hit at different angles
But I end up dead

Feels like I’m living in limbo
Praying to God for a symbol
Looking around for safe zone
Running low on my mana though

Still on level 27
Trying to defeat the demons
In my head

I’m trapped in your video game
You tricked me into playin’
Watching myself on kill cam
There’s no way I will win it

Stranded in your video game
My heart can’t AFK
But if I learned one thing
You want the controller, so you can control her

I’m your video game
You’re pushing my buttons, not giving me lovin’, so you can have someone to manipulate
I’m your video game
You’re pushing my buttons, not giving me lovin’, so you can have someone to manipulate

I used to be OP
Now I don’t recognize me
Feels like it’s 1v1 against myself
Doin’ it alone with no one to help, but I

Lose my mind
Glitching as you’re switching up positions all the time
Wonderin’ if my KD ratio is worth the hype
Betting that you’re quick to sacrifice me every time, I

I’m trapped in your video game
You tricked me into playin’
Watching myself on kill cam
There’s no way I will win it

Stranded in your video game
My heart can’t AFK
But if I learned one thing
You want the controller, so you can control her

I’m your video game
You’re pushing my buttons, not giving me lovin’, so you can have someone to manipulate
I’m your video game
You’re pushing my buttons, not giving me lovin’, so you can have someone to manipulate

We’re not a match, we’re a deathmatch
In real life I hate that you had me believe
You aren’t a player
I’m not your endgame, so will this game ever end

I’m trapped in your video game
You tricked me into playin’
Watching myself on kill cam
There’s no way I will win it

Stranded in your video game
My heart can’t AFK
But if I learned one thing
You want the controller, so you can control her

I’m your video game
You’re pushing my buttons, not giving me lovin’, so you can have someone to manipulate
I’m your video game
You’re pushing my buttons, not giving me lovin’, so you can have someone to manipulate

I quit
