cole deruse - take me back lyrics

[hook]
i remember the days, when life was simple
back when video games, were so essential
leaving reality to a place with no parentals
keepin’ peace in the galaxy, battling men who were sinful
take me back

to the days when i was younger
so engaged i couldn’t slumber, cuz all the games i discovered
take me back, to stayin’ up late with my brothers
throwin’ grenades at each other, way too brave to dive for cover
take me back

[verse 1]
take me back to the days when life was simple
back when video games were so essential
when the only worry was my time limit on the nintendo
i would play it then couldn’t save it, wake up and do it again bro, uh
so frustrated, it sucked waitin’, i’m complainin’
how could my father turn this off when i’m not done savin’?
i wasn’t patient, my thumbs were shakin’, i loved gamin’
i was so bothered i had to stop all this gun blazin’
fast forward a bit to that sega genesis
my father beat my bro and me so bad it was ridiculous
but then we got better, and dad he got fed up
ironically once he started losin’ he just wasn’t into this, uh
see, i’m meticulous, i remember that christmas
we opened up that ps1 and went ballistic
we played more than those who train for the olympics
all those great scores were made for those days more simplistic

[verse 2]
take me back to the ps2, the first days, that i played
baulder’s gate dark alliance when it was new
eyes glued, to the tube. up before school to play it
time flew, it was true. when roamin’ the city and slayin’
any enemy in between victory it was so fun
can’t believe that i still play a game that was made in 01
i’m a nerd i know it, and i wrote this song to show it
i’m not ashamed to admit, i love virtual heroics
let’s fast forward a bit to those lan parties
those xbox, with a red dot, get a head-shot man parties, yeah
the first one i attended i was 14
we played halo 2 until 4 in the morning
we had 4 systems, 4 teams, each on a separate tv
it sort of ticked me off, cuz i could not cheat and peak at their screens
it was shortly after that i made a tough decision
halo won me over, so my friendship with playstation ended /=

[verse 3]
take me back to when i got that 360
for christmas it was splendid i hooked it up to the tv quickly/
i put in halo 3 and connected to live
all those lan parties pretty much stopped ’cause now we could play online
a year later i got call of duty 4
and put halo on the back burner for that modern war, yeah
that was a game-changer, pun intended
i got my 10th prestige, so men could see that i was committed
fast forward to halo 3: odst
i was in line with friends at gamestop for the midnight release
we took it home and played ’til 8am without any sleep
but we accomplished our mission, the whole campaign was beat
yeah, those are the days, that i really miss
today i have an xbox one, yet rarely play on it
because i’m married and have a baby, don’t really have much time
but i am thankful for those memories locked inside my mind
