[Verse 1] I sit at this desk, new glowing screen new gaming chair, no more late-night routine Faces light up in the 5090's glow to bad I got no more games to show I queue the maps we used to know Back when the nights were long and slow If I close my eyes just right They’re all still here tonight [Chorus] Some people fade, some people stay Some just drift a different way I play their names on simple strings The people I still see [Verse 2 – Pookie] Pookie baked all day, queued at night Cookies cooling, dropship lights Fortnite, PUBG, Apex runs Winning nothing, still had fun [Verse 3 – Aurora & Frank] Aurora and Frank up in the sky Pilot jokes as the years flew by Now they’ve landed, slowed the pace Building roots, a family place [Chorus] Some people fade, some people stay Some just knead their hurt away I play their names on simple strings The people I still see [Verse 4 – Nightmare] Nightmare laughs about that match Peely skins we couldn’t patch Back in 2017, Fortnite lit the screen Didn’t know those late nights would turn into memories [Verse 5 – DX] DX— or Death, or Darth, who knows I never got the name close He’d correct me, shake his head Laugh it off, move on instead [Chorus] Some people fade, some people stay Some just peel their hurt away I play their names on simple strings The people I still see [Verse 7 – Carcassfactory] Carcass sang but skipped the game Wouldn’t queue, still owned the stage Left a hook I still can hear Long after he disappeared [Verse 8 – Kamikaze] Kamikaze looted fast Best gear gone before we asked When things got heavy, he had your back Split the pain like loot from the pack [Final Chorus] Some people fade, some people stay Some just drift a different way I play their names on simple strings The people I still see [Outro] The stream is gone, the nights are too But the laughs still feel brand new Time moved on, I let it be with out them, there was no stream [Final Chorus] Some people fade, some people stay Some just drift a different way I play their names on simple strings The people I still see
