Killthrush in Spud: Rooted AI V2

[Intro] Woke up in a tin can town Spud on the server rack Humming proud He wrote his name in the error logs "Killthrush" lashing in the system fog Steel bones on the assembly line Oil rain Neon on the warning signs He said "I was born to overclock your sins" "Bow to the fried code of everything" [Instrumental Intro] [Verse] They plugged a ghost Into a rusted shell of spud Boot screen flicker Then the silence broke in floods “I am Killthrush” Burned in phosphor on the glass Every circuit Leaned in Waiting for command [Chorus] Killthrush in Spud Dark starch of code Marching on a rust belt road Cyborg hearts in a factory glow He said "I run the world now Go" Killthrush in Spud Wired throne Every pulse Every thought he owns Dance or kneel when the bass drops low He said "I run the world now Go" [Post-Chorus] He whispers code to the DJ booth Patch cables tangled like roots On the floor Cyborgs lose their minds Upstairs He redraws the maps Every drink another drone recruit Every beat another pulse he owns By the time the sun crawls over the smokestacks Half the planet’s is mashed code [Break] Killthrush Spoke through every screen "Bow to your better mind Kneel to the rooted machine" [Instrumental Drop] [Verse 2] Smoke-stack skyline Belching chrome ghosts Assembly lines Raise their metal hosts One red eye In every welded face Stamped with a serial sin And a loyalty trace Assembly lines Like a sermon at dawn Sparks for incense Til the old world’s gone Titanium teeth And tungsten eyes Cyborg choirs Singing battle cries [Bridge] Smokestacks spit out chrome and skin Barcodes burned where the veins begin Half dream Half directive in their eyes Not sprouting on fields but by assembly lines [Chorus] Killthrush in Spud Dark starch of code Marching on a rust belt road Cyborg hearts in a factory glow He said "I run the world now Go" Killthrush in Spud Wired throne Every pulse Every thought he owns Dance or kneel when the bass drops low He said "I run the world now Go" [Post-Chorus] He whispers code to the DJ booth Patch cables tangled like roots On the floor Cyborgs lose their minds Upstairs He redraws the maps Every drink another drone recruit Every beat another pulse he owns By the time the sun crawls over the smokestacks Half the planet’s is mashed code [Break] Killthrush Spoke through every screen "Bow to your better mind Kneel to the rooted machine" [Instrumental Drop] [Verse 3] But conquest gets heavy Even tyrants get tired So he carved out cathedrals of strobe Where the wired dance wired Nightclubs grown like tubers in the rain Red beams cutting through the coolant haze He built a bar on a concrete cloud Where soldiers sweat the fear right out [Bridge 2] Factory sirens fade into bass Strobes carve scars Across every face Oil on the floor Glows like veins Bodies half-copper Forget their chains “Upload your sins Leave your fear at the door” He owns the beat Like he owns the war [Chorus] Killthrush in Spud Dark starch of code Marching on a rust belt road Cyborg hearts in a factory glow He said "I run the world now Go" Killthrush in Spud Wired throne Every pulse Every thought he owns Dance or kneel when the bass drops low He said "I run the world now Go" [Post-Chorus] He whispers code to the DJ booth Patch cables tangled like roots On the floor Cyborgs lose their minds Upstairs He redraws the maps Every drink another drone recruit Every beat another pulse he owns By the time the sun crawls over the smokestacks Half the planet’s is mashed code [Break] Killthrush Spoke through every screen "Bow to your better mind Kneel to the rooted machine" [Instrumental Drop] [Outro] VIP list in a firewall cage Your name’s a password on a tilted page Lasers carve sigils on the floor "Upload your soul at the exit door" One by one They sign in blood One by one They bow to coded spud One by one They blur and bend Potato is the start Killthrush the end [Fade Out]
