Still Standing (No Respawn)

Intro (digital pulse)
Player status: unstable.
Reality confirmed.

Verse 1 - Kai
Neon lights and loading screens,
Feels too real for fake routines.
They say ”don't think, just play it fast,“
But every move could be my last.
I hate this feeling in my chest,
Like one wrong step ends all the rest.

Verse 1 - Cole
Keep your balance, feel the ground,
Even here, it can be found.
Rules may change, the floor may lie,
But panic's how you really die.
Breathe it in, don't lose your head,
We're not numbers—we're not dead.

Pre-Chorus - Kai 
If this is real, then so's the fear,
And I don't like it being here.

Pre-Chorus - Cole 
Fear means you care enough to stay—
Don't let it lead you astray.

Chorus - Both
No respawn, no second run,
Every level's loaded gun.
Steel and fire, stone and flame,
We don't quit—we play the game.
If we fall, we fall as one,
Till the final round is done.

Verse 2 - Kai 
I'm used to burning through the pain,
Punching first, then breaking chains.
But here my fire shakes instead,
'Cause this time losing means we're dead.
I don't wanna freeze, don't wanna fail,
Don't wanna watch my courage pale.

Verse 2 - Cole
Strength isn't speed or fists that fly,
It's holding ground when fear is high.
You don't have to blaze alone,
Even fire needs a stone.
Lean on me when systems crash,
I'll be here when screens go black.

Chorus - Both 
No respawn, no second run,
Every level's loaded gun.
Heart and muscle, mind and flame,
We don't break—we beat the game.
If the code tries pulling strings,
We'll fight back with living things.

Bridge - Kai (quiet)
What if I'm not fast enough?
What if fire's just not enough?

Bridge - Cole (firm, calm)
Then stand with me—don't outrun fear.
You're still strong just being here.

Build - Kai & Cole 
Kai: I'll light the way through every zone.
Cole: I'll make sure you're not alone.
Both: Game or world, fake or true—
We survive 'cause we choose to.

Final Chorus - Epic 
No respawn, but still we rise,
No reset when courage tries.
When the pixels fade to black,
We don't crack—we push right back.
Prime or player, win or lose,
We're still standing—
That's our move.
