After work blues

Alarm hits six, I’m half alive,

Coffee drip’s the only vibe.

Traffic’s slow, my mind’s on mute,

Emails stacked like boss fights in a suit.

Clock hands crawl, I count each turn,

Dreaming ‘bout the pixels I’ll soon earn.

Deadlines drag, my soul’s on fumes,

But I know there’s light past this cubicle gloom.

‘Cause I’ll level up when the day’s all done,

Trade my tie for a controller, fun’s begun.

From spreadsheets to speedruns, I’ll find my zone,

The world fades out when I log on alone.

Yeah, I fight all day, but I win at night—

Respawn my joy under neon light.

(Saxophone solo)

Boss calls twice, says, “One more thing,”

I swear this quest just keeps looping.

Printer jams, morale’s gone gray,

But my console’s whispering, “It’s okay.”

The moment I clock out, I’m reborn,

Headphones on, my kingdom’s sworn.

From overtime to open skies,

I press “Start” and watch the pressure die.

Yeah, I’ll level up when the day’s all done,

Trade my tie for a controller, fun’s begun.

From spreadsheets to speedruns, I’ll find my zone,

The world fades out when I log on alone.

Yeah, I fight all day, but I win at night—

Respawn my joy under neon light.

No boss, no calls, no deadlines near,

Just victory music in my ear.

My thumbs may ache, my eyes may sting,

But man, this peace is everything.

Level up, yeah, I’m free at last,

Workday blues are in the past.

From grind to game, I take control,

Power on—restore my soul.

Yeah, I fight all day, but I win at night—

Respawn my heart in that pixel light.
