After work blues

[Verse 1]
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.
[Chorus]
‘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)

[Verse 2]
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.
[Chorus]
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.
[Bridge]
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.
[Final Chorus]
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.
