Lyrics
Verse 1
Glossy white finish on the floor
Controller clicking late at night
He needs to win one more
Power button glows a bright blue light
Pre-Chorus
He hears his mother call his name
He acts like he can't hear at all
Too focused on a digital game
Headsets block the echoes in the hall
Chorus
Oh Enrique
No more levels left to climb
Oh Enrique
Trading all your chores for screen time
Hidden cords and a locked bedroom door
You won't be playing anymore
Verse 2
Cereal bowls sit on the wooden desk
Math books buried under the plastic chair
Living room looking like a messy wreck
Grades are slipping but he doesn't care
Pre-Chorus
He hears his mother call his name
He acts like he can't hear at all
Too focused on a digital game
Headsets block the echoes in the hall
Chorus
Oh Enrique
No more levels left to climb
Oh Enrique
Trading all your chores for screen time
Hidden cords and a locked bedroom door
You won't be playing anymore
Bridge
Blank screen staring back at his face
Console gone without a single trace
Silent room and a slow heavy pace
Searching for a save file out of space
Chorus
Oh Enrique
No more levels left to climb
Oh Enrique
Trading all your chores for screen time
Hidden cords and a locked bedroom door
You won't be playing anymore
