[Verse 1]
You know the worst thing you could say about life
That it's too hard
But the worst thing you could say about a game
Is it's too easy, let's go
[Verse 2]
In team deathmatch I need less scratch
It's an optical attachment for optimal harassment
I had to wait to customize in Phantom Pain
The way Konami did Kojima was just a shame
[Verse 3]
Yo, I had to make important life decisions
Will I study something to help me make a living?
Or will I continue to spend time progressing
Analyze combos and strategies for Tekken?
[Verse 4]
Grew up a game freak, Pokémon, caught 'em all
From the street, but a geek overall
I recall GameShark; lives lost, gained heart
Started selecting the right controls to paint art
[Verse 5]
I walk through creep on the opps like Splinter Cell
The Outer Haven, I burn through the Icecrown Citadel
Metal Solid to Liquid Snake, my brothers, them vicious
Big Boss on 'em we geared up from Metal to Rex, pay respect
[Verse 6]
Let me tell you about the proto culture
If you don't know the culture here's the whole structure
Twenty years ahead of the game, we gave props
And we still buy the kinda games you can't pick up at GameStop
[Verse 7]
Let me tell you about the proto culture
If you don't know the culture here's the whole structure
Twenty years ahead of the game, we gave props
And we still play the kinda games you can't pick up at GameStop
[Verse 8]
I had Mattel Intellivision in the crib as a kid
I had to tell my friends that visit what the hell that it is
It isn't Sega, Coleco, Atari, Tandy or Commodore
It's the system that belonged to my mom before I was born (Respect that)
[Verse 9]
Nintendo Power achiever, Wordburglar, last name Jordan
No wonder number 23's the one my high score's in (Facts)
You never played Chrono Trigger? A shame, Jack
But you could always go back in time and change that, yeah
[Verse 10]
Playing these fighting games, gotta get 10-0, kid
Just repeating combos, I'm punching, I'm winnin', I'm sinnin'
I'm Castlevania whippin', sippin', dippin', flippin'
Keepin' all the money to get extra life and spirits
[Verse 11]
Look, a Monster Hunter and a gunner with a Goldeneye
I'm stayin' sly and ratchet, GTA for life
Keyblade on my hip to switch it up on sight
Till it's the last of us and you dead by daylight
[Verse 12]
Let me tell you about the proto culture
If you don't know the culture here's the whole structure
Twenty years ahead of the game we gave props
And we get the kinda titles you can't pick up at Gamestop
[Verse 13]

[Verse 14]
Twitch overrun by, hold it down now
There's games, see 'em loading up in the background
I remember getting bootlegs from my favorite store
Till the feds busted them and I didn't no more
[Verse 15]
We game pros where the demos hold for the centerfold
Same era where my grades would enter the blood code
On 99 I'm a Contra fan, Konami plan
Brand Midway on fire, that NBA Jam
[Verse 16]
Locked and loaded, the block exploded
With the message is decoded then I've clocked your motive
Gotta get your whole squad in order
Overtake your mother-base and give my marching orders
[Verse 17]
I remember saving money pressed to buy an NES
Only just to later pirate games when I was penniless
With plenty debt, weighing on me like I'm heavyset
Forever Famicom meant surviving pandemic events
[Verse 18]
Only ever watched my brother play Pokemon Gold
Till he told me, "Make your own," so I dove in the fold
Built my teams, beat the leaders now it feels so familiar
Like going back to Kanto during Pokemon Silver
[Verse 19]
Every platform's got a gospel, religion
I was apostle to MULE and Impossible Mission
On my 6-4, Way of the Exploding Fist
L, shift-O, shift-2, asterisk
[Verse 20]
Man, we so ahead of our time, Ultima up to Skrim
Skills never declining, loving the endless grinding
Never know where you'll find him
Rhyming on Twitch, defining our niche, this is the remix (Come on)
[Verse 21]
Let me tell you about the proto culture
If you don't know the culture here's the whole structure
Twenty Years ahead of the game we gave props
And we still play the kinda games you can't get at GameStop
[Verse 22]

[Verse 23]
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Games are a opportunity to focus our energy and optimism
That's something that we're good at for once
It's like the complete opposite of depression
Like, I've never seen anybody play Pac-Man or Tetris
And then wanna hurt somebody
Maybe a controller, but not like a actual person, you know?
Truth is reality is broken
But games can fix it
