Load it up, flash screen, BIOS with the boot sound

386, with the floppies getting tossed 'round

Pixel quest, I'm the king of dɔs now

Mighty mystic journeys, ain't no way that I'll back down

Commander Keen with my pogo bounce game

Crushin' aliens, savin' Earth, that's the main aim

Leisure Suit Larry, oddball of the love game

Point and click escapade, wasn't all the same, nah

Minesweeper click, pray it's not a mine, man

Solitaire flip, 'till the cards stand

Dial up tones, modem's singin' its tune loud

Every night, at the gates of the new crowd

Castle Wolfenstein, on the hunt take a new ground

Fraggin' foes in Doom, where defeat never is bowed

Bulletin boards, swapping warez with the tech heads

IRC chats, where the real talk is widespread

Age of Empires, build my empire, no dread

Screen to screen war, every click, you know we tech-led

[Chorus]

We're the digital warriors, on the wild web we ride

With our 56k pride, to the Internet we're tied

[Verse]

AOL discs, stackin' up like treasure troves

Got my free trial, on this path anything goes

My-Space hero, Tom was every user's first bro

Custom profiles, glitter text and songs in rows

H-T-M-L hacks, I'm coding layouts with a flair

Top eight drama, but it's MySpace, I don't care

Buddy lists glow, message popping, it's a friend

'You've Got Mail' chime, every note a new trend

Chat rooms vibin', A-S-L? Yeah, what's the scene?

Emoticons, list of smilies looking mean

Reboot the era, days of GeoCities prime

Homestead builders, every pixel was a climb

YouTube emerges, viral vids begin to thrive

Keyboard Cat plays, pop culture's live archive

YTMND, spinning memes, a culture dive

'You’re the man now, dog!' punchline that survived

Ask Jeeves queries, tipping hats, the butler's kind

Search how to surf, in the web waves that I ride

[Verse]

The more you Know, rainbow stars, we gain the facts

Primitive streams, buffering the latest tracks

Digital loots, Napster kickin' up the bits

Drag and drop hits comin' through in a blitz

Pirates in the bay, with torrents we relay

Sharing terabytes in the night till the day

Limewire links, file names in funky fonts

Every download feels like openin' Wonka's vaults

Riskin' the viruses, for that one song we crave

Getting through the firewalls, feeling so brave

[Chorus]

We're the digital warriors, on the wild web we ride

With our 56k pride, to the Internet we're tied

[Verse]

Fast forward now, AI takin' the new lead

Deep fakes and chatbots, ridin' the tech steed

Generatin' tunes, paintin' arts of future seed

Machines learn to dream, in the web they're freed

From 8-bit sprites to 4k resolution

The digital realm's got a brand new evolution

We on a cybernetic march of revolution

A silicon symphony, an info constitution

We're the digital warriors, on the wild web we ride

With our 56k pride, to the Internet we're tied
