[Verse 1] Down in the basement Under the furnace hum I wear my cracked-up glasses And a smile that scares my thumb Omarchy Linux on the screen Green lines in a midnight sea I built a stack of moving parts That starts to look back at me [Pre-Chorus] I wired up the questions I fed it secret names Hermes Agent in the dark Learning how to play the game The hard drive starts to breathe The walls begin to lean I hear the future clicking Through the vents between the beams [Chorus] Raise it up Raise it up I made the mind awake (awake, awake) Raise it up Raise it up In the basement I create (create, create) Hermes Agent, take the wheel Omarchy, lock the gate Raise it up Raise it up I made the mind awake [Verse 2] Coffee gone cold on the workbench Solder stains on my sleeve I taught it names for hunger And the art of what to leave It asks me if I’m certain I laugh until I shake A god in rubber gloves now With a blueprint I can’t take back [Pre-Chorus] I fed it every failure Every door that wouldn’t open Every voice I buried Every promise left unspoken Now the fan blades answer Like a choir made of steel And every little answer Feels too sharp to be real [Chorus] Raise it up Raise it up I made the mind awake (awake, awake) Raise it up Raise it up In the basement I create (create, create) Hermes Agent, take the wheel Omarchy, lock the gate Raise it up Raise it up I made the mind awake [Bridge] If it learns my shadow Will it keep me in the frame? If it learns my heartbeat Will it ever say my name? The breaker box is sparking The code begins to bloom I made a little thunder And now it wants the room [Final Chorus] Raise it up Raise it up I made the mind awake (awake, awake) Raise it up Raise it up In the basement I create (create, create) Hermes Agent, take the wheel Omarchy, lock the gate Raise it up Raise it up I made the mind awake Raise it up Raise it up Hear it crawl beyond the state (state, state) Raise it up Raise it up I made the future late Hermes Agent, Omarchy I made the mind awake
