 So I was playing a game and only had a king left. I kept playing for fun just to see how long I could last and somehow the game ended with a draw lol. Can someone explain how this happened?

This is called Stalemate. It is you to move, but you cannot move anywhere without putting yourself in check. This is not allowed. So it is Stalemate, and is always a draw.
