[Verse 1]
If you could understand
I'm just another guy
Trying to make it through
Trying to make it by
I keep kicking, but I'm only given so much time
Call me Gordon Freeman, I'm only living half a life
You know, I dream in creative mode
Building houses and mountains and castles and moats
And I'll wake up in my small, dark, underground home
And it sucks being me, but I'm safer alone
And if you're out here just to have fun
Well no offense to you, I don't trust anyone
[Chorus]
But I know that I can be strong
(I got a couple swords inside)
And I know that I can go far
(Take a spin on a piggy back ride)
If I trust myself and no one else
I'm gonna' take my pride back off the shelf
From griefers to mobs, there is no rival
For someone like me living in survival
[Verse 2]
My story's pretty long, but I got plenty rhymes
I've had my house burned down so many times
My best friend Vince got lost one night
Now my best friend is a dog and his name is Mike
Me and Mike live deep underground
In a house made of gravel and stone that we found
With a single torch light, and a little tiny bed
And a miniature chest with a single loaf of bread
(UH) This is not what my parents wanted
When they sent me off and all the mobs were watching
Nightfall began, and the carnage started
All the awful monsters, man I lost my conscience
We got that Dog-Eat Dog state of mind
If you can't fend for yourself, then you will not stay alive
[Chorus]
But I know that I can be strong
(I got a couple swords inside)
And I know that I can go far
(Take a spin on a piggy back ride)
If I trust myself and no one else
I'm gonna' take my pride back off the shelf
From griefers to mobs, there is no rival
For someone like me living in survival
[Verse 3]
Boy, I told you when you left here
That life will never be the same
For being that stubborn ass punk kid
Adventure was your middle name
You packed your bags, and walked out the door
Said you'll return to us all once more
But the sun went down, and you never came home
You should never go survival mode whenever you're alone
[Verse 4]
Living underground in isolation
Has caused me to suffer constant frustration
All I do is lay around, and if I'm lucky, find some meat
But mostly I only eat pumpkins and wheat
Me and Mike are all alone, on our own defense
Because life is cold in the wilderness
You see, I killed a man who tried to climb over my fence
Realizing too late it was my best friend Vince (NO!)
And now I just don't know what to do
But Mike is still in my life, and I'm not giving up on you
[Chorus]
But I know that I can be strong
(I got a couple swords inside)
And I know that I can go far
(Take a spin on a piggy back ride)
If I trust myself and no one else
I'm gonna' take my pride back off the shelf
From griefers to mobs, there is no rival
For someone like me living in survival
