First place number one ace,
You're fighting a master with a smile on his face,
Press start to begin so you may meet your end,
Now I am your enemy when I once was your friend,
Start level one all negotiations are done,
Should I kill you now or have a little fun,
This game is vast but you pick up fast,
All the while wondering how long you will last,
Level two no where near through,
But you stride to survive and keep who is you,
Dodging the traps and making your laps,
While your mind keeps filling with esteemless gaps,
Level three still no sign of me,
That little voice in your head telling you to flee,
Every point you earn every enemy to earn,
Like an addiction making your killer instinct start to churn,
Level four now your fear is no more,
You turn the difficulty up but they still hit the floor,
Your friends watch in awe as their ranks continue to fall,
To them every point you make is a death call,
Level five now you really feel alive,
Anyone who even looks at you takes a nose dive,
Level six you can no longer feed your fix,
Even pausing the game would make you horribly sick,
Now seven flies by in a blink of an eye,
Your score now rivaling the height of the sky,
Onto eight no chance of being late,
You know you're too good to be held back by fate,
Number nine you can't even comprehend time,
As your mind is focused on the finish line,
Inches away from your goal of today,
"Now you die", you hear me say,
From behind where you were oblivious and blind,
I grab your leg, throw you down, and make your face grind,
On the ground below you didn't even know,
I was following you all this time acting as your shadow,
I let go of my grasp as I dash past,
Only seen as a blur because I'm just too damned fast,
You catch a glimpse of me taking your victory,
Noticing that I have not a scratch on me,
I pass the line, one of the divine,
The skill I posses should be considered a crime,
After the ace you stand in second place,
You look at me but no more smile on my face,
I'm staring blankly ahead as if I were dead,
I knew the outcome before the game system was fed,
Confused and ashamed you turn to my TV frame,
On the screen blinking white reads, "Press Start to Begin Game."
