P.V.P.

Destruction of the ego Is central to the practice of Zen Buddhism So when they said go kill yourself They were actually just trying to help, right I'm sure they're just concerned for my self-improvement They're nice people But they aren't Nice doesn't win Nice doesn't dominate Nice doesn't crush the competition You think they're rooting for the underdog But they'd rather see a curb-stomping than a comeback In the one-on-one It's more effective to punch down than up The game of life is a game of death The spoils go to the one still standing The dream of the self-made man The drive to accumulate wealth in a world with finite resources The one who takes, the one that has They are worshipped, while gaze is averted from the have-nots Dropped into the battle royale Only one can be the best, so move quick and aim true The slow, the unskilled, the unlucky deserve to die 99 players means 98 losers Who have you pushed into the ditch to get what you have earned What system have you exploited to build your power What privilege have you leveraged to get what you want You look out for yourself--you run a good hustle But you don't play your game in a vacuum You aren't taking your share from NPCs The points you earn come from another player's pool I want to fight for what I believe But when what you believe doesn't fight for you, what do you do We're all in this game whether we wanted to play or not You can't play fair and play to win If I have seen far, it is because I stood on the shoulders of giants If I have gained much, it is because I stood on the necks of the weak
