[Verse 1]
Loaded into a world with a tree and a dream,
Punchin’ every log like I’m Bruce Lee.
Sun starts droppin’, now I’m racing the sky,
Got a dirt cube palace that is barely four blocks high.
Thought I heard sheep, but the hiss said “Nope.”
Now my front yard’s got another crater to cope.
Spent all day mining, came back with a stack…
Of cobblestone. Well… I guess I’ll take that.
[Pre-Chorus]
They say I gotta get good, but there’s no instructions.
Every new lesson ends in accidental destruction.
[Chorus]
Been spendin’ most my life,
Livin’ in a blocky paradise.
Been spendin’ most my life,
Livin’ in a blocky paradise.
One more pick, one more fall, one more “Well, that’s nice…”
Respawn, grab my stuff, back to blocky paradise.
⸻
[Verse 2]
Everybody says, “Don’t dig straight down.”
Five seconds later guess who’s underground?
Lava says hello before I even blink,
There goes every diamond I was startin’ to think.
Look an Enderman right into both his eyes,
Now I’m back at spawn reconsidering life.
Skeleton sniped me from a mile away,
Meanwhile I’m missin’ every arrow that I made.
[Pre-Chorus]
Every cave looks friendly from the outside view.
Then suddenly a witch cackle hello to you.
[Chorus]
Been spendin’ most my life,
Livin’ in a blocky paradise.
Mining all night long lookin’ for the shiny prize.
Find one diamond… turns out I forgot the iron pick this time.
⸻
[Verse 3]
Built a storage room with a hundred chests.
Can’t remember where I put my ender chest.
Need one piece of tuff? Well that’s tough.
You’ll search for twenty minutes till you give up.
Villager wants thirty emeralds for a loaf of bread.
Buddy, I’d rather eat rotten flesh instead.
Finally got enchanted, feelin’ mighty bold…
Walked one step backwards… right into a hole.
[Bridge]
Who’s got my bed?
Who’s got my map?
Why’d I leave my food behind?
How’d that zombie get inside?
Just one quick trip… that’s what I said.
Now it’s three hours later and I’ve fought the undead.
Started gathering wood, yet got a stack of daisy’s…
Still forgot where I left my horse.
⸻
[Final Chorus]
Been spendin’ most my life,
Livin’ in a blocky paradise.
Every crater tells a story, every failure’s worth the price.
Build it bigger, build it better, that’s the builder’s life.
Been spendin’ most my life,
Livin’ in a blocky paradise.
They say I gotta get good, but there’s no instructions.
So I’ll punch another tree… and call it construction.
