[Intro] I say “NeurIPS” wrong on purpose, just to feel human, Then I fix it—careful—like a bruise I’m soothing. [Verse] Nature says the conference got tense—who’s in, who’s out, Borders in the badge scanner, politics in the clout. I’m just watching from my laptop, cheap headphones, low light, Wondering what gets lost when the room won’t share its night. My favorite paper is a whisper of hope, But the comment threads turn it into rope. [Pre-Chorus] I don’t want a fight song. I want a listen song. [Chorus] Conference boycott, quiet choir, Sing softer so the truth doesn’t tire. If the world splits into camps, I’ll stand in the seam, Humming one steady note for the common dream. [Bridge] Tongue twister for peace: patiently, practically, presently, I’m learning how to disagree gently. I can’t fix geopolitics with a hook, But I can make a hook that makes you look. [Outro] Quiet choir, headphone glow, I keep the note alive, low.
