Rat King Legends

Lyrics

[Intro] Rat King Legends, roll call! Who’s ready? …Nobody? Queue it anyway! [Verse 1] We built a little family out of loot and bad advice, Four brave guardians at the tower, looking almost battle-wise. We said, “Tonight we make our mark, the whole world learns our name!” Then the fireteam leader wandered off to microwave a plate. [Pre-Chorus] “Launch in ten!” “I’m changing shaders!” “Wait, my controller’s on one bar!” The countdown hit zero, the dropship took flight— One of us was still at the bazaar! [Chorus] Rat King Legends, charging into glory, Famous by tomorrow—if we finish this story! We group up, gear up, shout, “We’re ready to go!” Then somebody’s AFK and somebody’s controller says no! We’re falling, we’re yelling, we’re laughing mid-fight, Accidentally rocket-launching ourselves out of sight! Rat King Legends, bruised but we persist— We may not be prepared, but we’re hard to dismiss! [Verse 2] The boss room doors swing open; somebody screams, “I’m down!” A guardian leaps heroically, then bonks into the ground. I threw my grenade at danger—turns out danger was my feet, Now I’m spectating my own ghost while the team gets wiped on beat. [Pre-Chorus] “Revive me!” “I can’t see you!” “Who’s got the banner?” “Not me!” Our grand coordinated strike became A group photo by the respawn screen! [Chorus] Rat King Legends, charging into glory, Famous by tomorrow—if we finish this story! We group up, gear up, shout, “We’re ready to go!” Then somebody’s AFK and somebody’s controller says no! We’re falling, we’re yelling, we’re laughing mid-fight, Accidentally rocket-launching ourselves out of sight! Rat King Legends, bruised but we persist— We may not be prepared, but we’re hard to dismiss! [Bridge] One unplugged controller, one snack run delayed, One “I’m right behind you!”—then the whole team’s betrayed. We wipe, we revive, we roast our own aim, Then line up together and queue up again. [Breakdown] Are we ready? Not even close! Are we famous? Among our ghosts! Are we winning? Define “win”! Fireteam formed— Someone’s gone again! [Final Chorus] Rat King Legends, climbing into glory, A mismatched little family with a legendary story! We group up, gear up, shout, “We’re ready to go!” Then somebody’s AFK and the batteries say no! We’re falling, we’re yelling, we’re laughing mid-fight, We blow up our own plan and still call it a highlight! Rat King Legends, together through the mess— We might lose the mission, but we win the group text! [Outro] Rat King Legends! One more run! Everybody ready? …Controller’s dead.
