Life on Hard Mode

Lyrics :

Life on hard mode no save no cheat codes
Neon on my skin I move quiet through street glows
I don't talk big - I just load in and reload

Spawn in the day like I'm late to the mission
Map full of fakes I don't follow tradition
HP low but my focus stay lifted
I watch who I trust that's my armor that's business
Small talk dead I don't need the addiction
They want my route that's a paid subscription
I been in loops had to break the condition
Now every loss turn to XP I'm different

'Uh checkpoints never where you want 'em
Rain on the lens but I still see the problem
If I fall I respawn with the knowledge
one breath then I'm back in the gauntlet

They playin' my life like a video game
Tryna pause my grind put a glitch on my name
I don't freeze I don't fold I just aim
Level up pain turn the hurt into flame
They playin' my life like a video game
NPC love all scripted all lame
I don't beg for a crown I just take
Beat the boss leave the city in rain

I keep my heart in a case like a relic
Don't touch that save file you ain't got the access
They want a feature I'm not on they' settings
I'm on a rooftop my thoughts get electric
Currency talk I don't speak unless credit
I learned that love can be laggy and toxic
So I move solo my shadow my metric
Every new chapter the stakes get obnoxious

Boss fight energy knuckles stay steady
If it's smoke I don't type I'm already ready
Door close elevator go down - gettin' heavy
But I rise from the dirt like the code done reset me

They playin' my life like a video game
Tryna pause my grind put a glitch on my name
I don't freeze I don't fold I just aim
Level up pain turn the hurt into flame
They playin' my life like a video game
NPC love all scripted all lame
I don't beg for a crown I just take
Beat the boss leave the city in rain

No save no pause - just me and the late night
If I lose a round I return with a new light
Game over? nah I don't do that - I replay
