Fall of the Loyal Warrior

[Intro]
Spawned in, loaded up—yeah I’m feeling brave…
Three seconds later—guess who’s back in the grave?

[Verse 1]
I peek a corner like a genius, thinking I’m the man,
Then a twelve-year-old with perfect aim sends me to the respawn again.
I swear my bullets curve away like they’re allergic to the fight,
Meanwhile every rat is headshotting me out of spite.

[Pre-Chorus]
My K/D’s crying, my pride’s on the floor,
My squad says “push with us!”—but I’m already blood and gore.
Still I reload my dignity, take one more breath…
Here I come sprinting to my next untimely death.

[Chorus]
I’m dead again!
Didn’t even last a minute—bro, this game is fragged!
I’m dead again!
My epics don’t matter when my luck’s this bad!
But I jump back in, yeah I’ll die once more,
’Cause victory tastes sweet—
even when I’m face-down on the floor.
I’m dead again!
Put me in, coach—
I swear THIS one i'll score!

[Verse 2]
Sliding in like a hero, tryna clutch for the team,
Trip on a pixel, fall off a map—please uninstall jeez.
I throw a grenade with confidence, pure tactical art…
It bounces off a doorframe and blows me apart.

[Pre-Chorus]
The kill feed laughs, my squad yells “WHY?!”
My controller side-eyes me every time that I try.
But hey—one more run, I’ll get my revenge,
Or forget the objective and fall off a ledge.

[Chorus]
I’m dead again!
Didn’t even last a minute—bro, this game is rigged!
I’m dead again!
Even bots are asking if my shots “hid.”
But I jump back in, yeah I’ll die once more,
’Cause one day I’ll pop off—
And they’ll fear me for sure!
I’m dead again!
Respawn me quick—
I’m ready to ignore the score!

[Bridge]
Lag spike hits—
“Yo, that wasn’t me!”
Wi-Fi drops—
“My credibility!”
Teammates screaming—
“Bro, what have you done?!”
But somehow… somehow…
I blame the gun.

[Breakdown]
Hit me with a rez, hit me with a heal—
I’ll still find a way to slip on air and end the deal.
Every round a tragedy, every death a theme,
But I keep on queuing ’cause I believe in the dream.

[drum solo]

[Final Chorus]
I’m dead again!
Yeah, the lobby knows my name—
for entirely wrong reasons.
I’m dead again!
Top frag? Nah, but I bring good vibes every season.
So I jump back in, ’cause losing’s my friend—
One more respawn…
One more comedic end.
I’m dead again!
Roll clip—
Let’s do it all again!
