[Verse 1]

Boot up my mind, the screen glows cold

Step one: pretend, step two: fold

World spins in grids I cannot hold

A pixel heart beats, fractured, old

Instructions flash, but words deceive

Press A to move, press B to leave

I follow prompts I can’t believe

The lines between fade, and I grieve


[Chorus]

Walls of code surround my chest

I hit restart, I fail the test

Save points lost, no time to rest

This is the lesson, I digest


[Verse 2]

Monsters spawn in the quiet room

I hear my voice through static gloom

Every choice feels like impending doom

Yet I walk forward, swallowed by the zoom


[Chorus]

Walls of code surround my chest

I hit restart, I fail the test

Save points lost, no time to rest

This is the lesson, I digest


[Bridge]

Level one done, but I remain

Trapped in circuits of my own pain

Tutorial ends, but there’s no gain

Just the echo of the mainframe rain


[Outro]

Step out or stay, the choice is thin

But the game begins again within
