Tricked in the Pixel World

[Verse 1]
Logged in late
Said
“Just one night”
You built a house
I built a vibe
You dropped a sign
Said
“Stay a while”
I dropped my guard
You dropped that smile
[Pre-Chorus]
Thought it was you and me
Just us in this little scene
You said
“I got your back”
Guess I read that wrong
[Chorus]
You had me tricked in the pixel world
Thought I was your only girl
You were switching up your skin
Switching lovers
Logging in
You had me lost in your little lie
Every “baby” was copy–paste lines
Now I’m breaking every block we built
Yeah
You had me tricked in the pixel world
[Verse 2]
You said
“Don’t move
I’ll keep you safe”
Then dug me down
Into that cave
I heard her voice
On your call that night
You said “it’s just chat”
But her laugh said “mine”
[Pre-Chorus]
You said
“We’re just playing games”
Funny how you hid her name
You were saving all your hearts
Just not one for me
[Chorus]
You had me tricked in the pixel world
Thought I was your only girl
You were switching up your skin
Switching lovers
Logging in
You had me lost in your little lie
Every “baby” was copy–paste lines
Now I’m breaking every block we built
Yeah
You had me tricked in the pixel world
[Bridge]
Now I’m gone
I’m ghost (oh yeah)
Pulled my heart
My hopes
Left your lane
My lane
New map
New name
If you scroll
You’ll see
Someone leveling with me
She don’t hide behind screens
She logs in honestly
[Chorus]
You had me tricked in the pixel world
Thought I was your only girl
You were switching up your skin
Switching lovers
Logging in
But I’m not lost in your little lie
Got my freedom on auto–reply
So I’m breaking every block we built
You can stay there
Tricked in your pixel world

Verses stay close and conversational, hook explodes with stacked harmonies and a soaring top line. Subtle chiptune glints and filtered pads weave in to nod at the game world, bridge strips down to vocal + keys before the final, bigger chorus., r&b
