Temp0 - Just Hit Play (Ladder Like It Doesn't Even Matter)

Purchase the song to support me!

Song for those who have trouble just hitting that ladder because of how intimidating it can seem some times! It's all about the approach and mentality! Aim to improve whether you win or lose, and remember the "have fun" part of GLHF!

First attempt at a lyric video in this style haha. May be quite amateurish, but I gotta practice somehow!

"Mastery is a Path" - Neuro ;)

Written and Performed by: Temp0
Instrumental by: Hollywood Legend

Lyrics

The struggle is real
Some of you know how I feel
“More GG More Skill” (more skill)
That's how I deal

Hot damn! The feeling in my brain again
If I lose then I may go insane again
No way my friend, I play to win
Because I hate losing and the rage it brings
But when I get into my zone it's cool
And I make a little splash in my bonus pool
Hittin' “Find Match” got me scared no doubt
My points go down (down) Tears come out

I want the winner to be me
Every time I queue, I QQ... I'm too afraid to GG
And it's clear that it tears through my confidence
I wanna play but I'm on the fence
But wait.. why am I afraid?
Why am I so caught up in the thought
saying “I don't wanna play”
Does anybody else go through this every day
If that's the case lemme hear you say (HEY!)

Chorus
I'm gonna hit that button
Find my match when I hit play
If I win or if I lose
I'm still improving anyway
Get out there and ladder
and ladder and ladder
like it doesn't even matter
even matter
Just Hit play

Oh man... I just got rushed again
All the dreams that I had got crushed again
I can feel my jimmies still rustlin
Next time I'ma get it if I just defend
Some times it feels I'm the fool
When I just drop games like Manner Mules
It's True, I wish there was an easy route
To the league that I dream about (HOT DAMN!)

I swear to Flash I'm fed up
Gettin knocked down so much that I don't even wanna get up
Damn, I can't stand it, the anger it builds within
A salt mountain and I'm the king
But wait.. why am I enraged?
There's a lotta things I gotta learn
from mistakes that I have made
Does anybody else go through it? (through it)
Don't let your dreams be dreams and JUST DO IT!

Chorus
I'm gonna hit that button
Find my match when I hit play
If I win or if I lose
I'm still improving any way
Get out there and ladder
and ladder and ladder
like it doesn't even matter
even matter Just Hit play

The struggle is real
Some of you know how I feel
“More GG More Skill” (more skill)
That's how I deal

(More GG More Skill)

Chorus
I'm gonna hit that button
Find my match when I hit play
If I win or if I lose
I'm still improving anyway
Get out there and ladder
and ladder and ladder
like it doesn't even matter
even matter Even matter (HEY!)
I'm gonna hit that button
Find my match when I hit play
If I win or if I lose
I'm still improving anyway
Get out there and ladder
and ladder and ladder
like it doesn't even matter
even matter
Just Hit Play

5 years old and still killin it. Thank you, this helped motivate me to hit the ladder instead of playing more campaign again.

[Temp]

Thanks all! Feel like a lot of people can relate to this one :)

[Brevek]

I listen to it, literally, every day before laddering.

Thank you Temp0. That helps a lot.

[sCnInfinity]

This still motivates me to get out there and ladder after 4 years. Thank you Temp0!

[boriskrendebober]

I really love this song not only due to music but also due to concept that i can transfer to everything in my life. I dont play sc anymore, but i regulary listen this song to feel its awesome vibe of trying again and again until sucsess. Thank you, temp0. You are my hero.

[Supercris]

Damn Temp0, you've outdone yourself with this one. Bravo!

[Temp]

Broke that 20k :D. Good to know yall been digging it. Got some more I'm working on!

[hillbillykoi]

These words go with more than Starcraft. My 10yo is having issues with school, so I sing this to him when I drop him off. Thank you so much!

[ulyssesdoroja]

God damn it Tempo. Just when I thought I was out, you pull me back in. Gotta lose that 600 bonus pool.

[yinch_]

7 years old and still listening to this reminds me of life...
Just do it!

[Entroper]

I still listen to this 3 years later whenever I need a push, not even Starcraft-related. Just hit play!

[JohostN]

What the Fuck!? This song motivates me so heard, and gives me goose bumps everytime I hear it.... Thanks for all your awesome work and passion for this awesome game and community <3

[Slunch]

Still my favourtie ladder song in 2021

[olpisak]

Helps even when you fail something in your job, many years after retiring from SC2 :)

[imkiraL]

I miss Temp0, playing sc2, and so I still come back and play even though I know I am all washed up now.

[Smasher_lol]

Cant stop replaying it :D! Just TOO DAMN GOOD! HOT DAMN!

[Brimikonizzle]

Thanks for what you do Tempo. You're an indispensable personality of the SC2 scene. You're an amazing Earthling in general because of your kind and fun attitude. Keep on keeping on!

[gushlergushler]

After playing SC2 since WOL release I have achieved Masters league for the first time last season. Not quite "when I'm Grandmaster" but pretty proud regardless.

[espresso-]

I don't play anymore but I still love listening to this whenever I feel down :) thanks Temp0
