[Intro]
(Yeah)
I learned it there
With the controller in my hand
[Verse 1]
Started with one life, one screen
One bad move, lose the dream
Kept my cool when the bar ran low
Hit restart, then I learned to grow
Every fail was a map I kept
Every loss was a lesson set
[Pre-Chorus]
You gotta read the field
Stay sharp, stay still
When the pressure climbs
You make your next move count
[Chorus]
Press start, stand up
Keep your head up
Level up, level up
You can learn from the grind
Press start, stand up
Turn the hurt into muscle
Level up, level up
Every loss makes you climb
[Verse 2]
Team up when the boss gets mean
No one wins on a lonely screen
Call the shot, but hear the room
One good voice can change the groove
Patience hits when the timer’s red
Calm hands beat the panic dead
[Pre-Chorus]
Watch the signs
Know your line
When the walls close in
You make your next move count
[Chorus]
Press start, stand up
Keep your head up
Level up, level up
You can learn from the grind
Press start, stand up
Turn the hurt into muscle
Level up, level up
Every loss makes you climb
[Verse 3]
I found out fear is just a test
Boss fights bring out what’s in your chest
Save the win for the harder days
Build your strength in a thousand ways
Now I move like I’ve been trained
Every setback earned my name
[Pre-Chorus]
Stay in the fight
Take your time
When the dark rolls in
You make your next move count
[Chorus]
Press start, stand up
Keep your head up
Level up, level up
You can learn from the grind
Press start, stand up
Turn the hurt into muscle
Level up, level up
Every loss makes you climb
[Bridge]
Learn to wait
Learn to aim
Learn to take the hit and stay in the game
Learn to lead
Learn to trust
Learn that you rise when the whole thing crashes
(You rise)
(You rise)
[Final Chorus]
Press start, stand up
Keep your head up
Level up, level up
You can learn from the grind
Press start, stand up
Turn the hurt into muscle
Level up, level up
Every loss makes you climb
Press start, stand up
When the world gets heavy
Level up, level up
You were built to survive
Press start, stand up
Take the next one with you
Level up, level up
Yeah, you learn to be alive
[Outro]
Yeah
I learned it there
And I brought it back with me
(Press start)
(Stand up)
