Forgot How To Have Fun

Lyrics

[Intro – Spoken] Somewhere along the way, People forgot why we came here. It's a game, it's a community, It's supposed to be fun. When did everything get so serious? [Verse 1] I log in just to leave the world behind, A little peace, a little laughter, a little time. Build a life inside a world of make-believe, Make some memories, find a place to breathe. Instagram stories, Avakin nights, Different personalities, different lights. We could be dancing, making friends, feeling free, But somebody's always got a problem with somebody. Every little comment gets twisted around, Every little whisper makes another round. Everybody's watching, keeping score, Turning something simple into another war. [Pre-Chorus] I got enough going on in my real life, Don't need another reason to lose sleep at night. I came here for the smiles, not the stress, Why's everybody making such a mess? [Chorus] When did we forget how to have fun? When did every little thing become a fight with someone? We're living in a world we can create, But some would rather fill it up with hate. I just wanna laugh, I just wanna breathe, Make some beautiful memories. This should add some sunshine to my life, Not another place where I gotta survive. Oh, tell me, what have we become? When did we forget how to have fun? [Verse 2] Someone feels ignored, now they're throwing shade, Someone didn't get invited, now a scene gets made. Someone takes a picture, someone takes offense, Making accusations that don't even make sense. Everybody's choosing sides again, Turning little misunderstandings into ends of friendships. Blocking and unfollowing like it's some kind of game, Calling everybody toxic while they're doing the same. It's a virtual world, but the feelings are real, And I won't dismiss the hurt that people feel. But not every silence is a personal attack, Not every friendship needs a knife in the back. [Pre-Chorus] We all got battles nobody sees, Sometimes this place is where we come to find peace. So why make it harder than it needs to be? A little more kindness could set us free. [Chorus] When did we forget how to have fun? When did every little thing become a fight with someone? We're living in a world we can create, But some would rather fill it up with hate. I just wanna laugh, I just wanna breathe, Make some beautiful memories. This should add some sunshine to my life, Not another place where I gotta survive. Oh, tell me, what have we become? When did we forget how to have fun? [Bridge] Behind every avatar there's a real heart, A real human living when the screens go dark. You don't know the weight that somebody carries, Or the silent battles that they keep buried. Maybe they're escaping a difficult day, Maybe they just need somewhere safe to play. We don't have to agree, we don't have to be friends, But why does every difference have to mean the end? I can care about people and still protect my peace, I can walk away without making enemies. Not everything deserves a reaction from me, Sometimes choosing joy is choosing to be free. [Final Chorus] Can we remember how to have fun? Stop turning every little thing into a fight with someone. There's so much beauty in the world we create, Too many good memories left to make. I wanna laugh, I wanna breathe, Surround myself with good energy. Let this place bring sunshine to my life, Not another reason to cry at night. We don't have to lose what we've begun, Can we remember how to have fun? [Outro – Soft Spoken] Life outside these screens is already complicated enough. I don't log in to fight battles. I log in to make memories. To create, to connect, to laugh, to love. Real friendships. Real feelings. But it doesn't have to be real drama. Sometimes... We just need to remember... It's supposed to be fun. And I'm choosing to keep it that way.
