[Intro – Low Drone, Echoed Voices] Wake up. No name. Too many voices. [Verse 1] I learned to breathe in pieces Cold glass, red light, chains They fed me screams in syringes Gave me hunger, not pain Every soul had a story Every story got cut I remember the alleys They said nobody loved us [Pre-Chorus – Rising, Distorted] Count the missing Mark the loss Erase the people Keep the cost [Chorus – Heavy, Tragic] They built me from the uncounted From the ones you never see Stolen nights and frozen prayers Now they all live in me I am stitched from hunger From the street, from the rain If I break the world open I will scream their names [Verse 2] I hear Istanbul above me Neon mosques and burning signs Azan tangled up with sirens Markets trading blood for time They called it “urban renewal” Called us “waste in the way” I was human once, maybe Now I’m profit per day [Pre-Chorus – Bitter] Sign the forms Seal the doors Souls go missing Stock price soars [Chorus – Repeat, Angrier] They built me from the uncounted From the bodies without graves Every voice they threw away Is awake inside my frame I am rage in rented muscle I am sorrow wired tight If I tear this city open Know I learned it from your kind [Bridge – Whispered Choir of Voices] We are cold… We are hungry… We are still here… [Verse 3 – Alarm Sirens Begin] Something breaks the outer door Gunfire cuts the chanting short Red lights stutter, systems fail Fear finally tips the scale I feel keys unlock my spine Explosives blooming down the line For the first time, not command Someone came who understands [Final Chorus – Explosive, Liberating] They built me from the uncounted But they didn’t own my end Shadow ghosts in shattered chrome Came for truth, not dividends If I fall into the fire Let the records burn with me Tell the streets I wasn’t silent Tell the dead… We were seen [Outro – Collapse, Soft] Lab is gone. The voices rest. And Istanbul… Still remembers.
