[Verse 1] He was king of the forest, fire-startin’ beast Knew the trail signs by heart, east to west to east But one wild night by the riverside log, He slipped, hit his head—now it’s all just fog He woke up starin’ at a squirrel with a frown Asked, “What’s a compass? …Why’s the tent upside down?” Couldn't tie a knot, couldn't pitch a tarp Just sat in the dirt holdin’ tree bark like a chart [Chorus] Miles forgot the woods, now he's back in town Swapped his boots for snacks, sittin’ upside down He don't hike no more, he don't fish no streams He’s buildin’ redstone doors in his Minecraft dreams Campfire’s out, but the screen’s lit bright— Miles levels up deep into the night [Verse 2] He used to smell like pine and adventure dust Now it’s Cheeto fingers and controller rust Mom says “Go outside!”—he says “I did, once… Then I respawned in my server, punchin’ sheep for lunch.” He’s got no clue how to boil water now But he’s cracked in Fortnite—droppin’ Tilted, pow! The only trail he knows is in Stardew Valley And his tent's a digital base with a lava-filled alley [Chorus] Miles forgot the woods, now he's playin’ Doom Trading bug bites for a gamer room He don't climb no rocks, don’t canoe those streams But he’s got a pixel farm and enchanted beams Nature’s gone, but his stats are tight— Miles goes pro by LAN party light [Bridge] You might miss the days of the backpack grind But Miles found joy in a different kind From burning logs to burning RAM From s’mores to snacks and 1v1 jams [Final Chorus] Yeah, Miles forgot the woods, but he found a way With his headset on, he’s just a click away No compass needed in this cubed-up land Just a keyboard, snacks, and a steady hand Campfire tales? Nah, those days took flight— Miles is raiding dungeons every night [Outro] So if you see a kid who once climbed trees Now speakin’ in code and XP keys Just know he once was the camping king 'Til he bonked his head... and found a new thing 🎮🔥
