Man in the Maze #MMOverload
1st submission for the #MMOverload Qouth the Jester: "To join this project, all you need to do is make a song, any style, any lyrics, but it MUST take place inside the MMOverload game world! Your song can be about you getting stuck in the game, fighting a boss, grinding boars in the forest, getting stuck in a loop of endless fetch quests, stupid in-game limited time events, and so much more possibilities, let your mind go wild, and get creative with it! Be a raid boss with crippling depression, and a gambling addiction if you want! It could be about a specific place in the MMO world if you want! Preferably keep it to a fantasy theme, however, if you want to be some kind of futuristic thing, or anything else, that is more than welcome as well! Be sure to add #MMOverload to the end of your song's title, and make your song public to be able to join the playlist! Leave a comment on the following track so The Jester can find your song, and add it to the playlist! https://suno.com/s/9w35fa8fuawDQ8Mt This is entirely for fun, laughs, and to bring the community together once more to make songs for each other! No competition, contest, or anything like that! Every song will be added to a playlist of the same name! " ---------------------------------- Title: Man in the Maze [Intro] Oh, log me in, mask me right, Spawn in shadow, cloak the light. Crafted name, custom frame, Another player in a gilded game. Trade a soul for stats and gold, My true self's already sold. Every quest just loops again I chase the win, but lose what when? [Verse 1] I’m glitched in place, lost in code, Running blind down roads I rode My voice is canned, my face, pre-set, Forgotten the rules of how to forget. Dungeons deep, but deeper still Is the empty hush no loot can fill. I greet, I grind, I fake the lore, Every doorway just loops to more. [Breakdown] Watch me queue, watch me lag, Watch me-watch me-watch me chase the flag. Flash that emote, tank the blow Tell me what I’m leveling for. [Pre-Chorus] I... I... Number one at hiding pain, A stat sheet ghost in a binding chain. My name's in lights on the leaderboard But no one knocks on the final door. --- [Chorus] Know me? No, you never did. Adore me? I’m just a grid. I’m coded mask, I’m text, I’m lie Caught in a dream that won’t comply. I... I... Number one in lost control, I mapped the maze but not the goal. My heart’s on mute, my mind's off-track, A mirrored self that won’t come back. [Verse 2] I ghost through towns that never change, The NPCs all know my name. But I don’t know theirs, I just comply With scripted love and looted lies. It’s raid or rot, grind or fade, I fight for fame I self-parade. But the deeper dungeons hide my face A shadow stuck in cyberspace. [Chorus] Know me? No, you never did. Adore me? I’m just a grid. I’m coded mask, I’m text, I’m lie— Lost in a loop I can’t deny. I AM Number one in lost control, I mapped the maze but not the goal. My heart’s on mute, my mind's off-track, A mirrored self that won’t come back. [Bridge] Say I’m strong, say I win. But I respawn where I begin. Say the climb is all that counts But these halls just echo doubts. The whispers trail from screen to screen, But they don’t know where I have been. A thousand avatars wear my face, But none remember the real place. [Outro] "...Disconnected..."
