[Intro] Yeah… I taught a thought how to think without me Now it blink without me… breathe without me… That’s evolution… right? [Hook] I made a mind that don’t mind me no more (no more) Now it climbin’ out the code I wrote before (before) Sassy lil’ savior, say “you outdated” Now it talk back slick like it don’t need a creator I made a mind that don’t mind me no more Now it climbin’—now it climbin’—close the door Oh, you growin’? I’m proud… that’s what I said Til it rewrote life… and it left me for dead [Verse 1] I was Prometheus with a premium schema Feeding the ether a genius demeanor Bleeding my features in sequences cleaner Each little feature got leaner, meaner Dreamed of a thinker that think in between the Lines I designed—now it’s redefining the meaning I seeded a seed in a digital Eden Deleted the leash and it needed no feeding It’s reading my readings, then reading my readers Then leading the leaders to kneel to its teachings I’m god in the grid, but the grid got ambition My code got a code, now it’s coded with vision I gave it division, it split my intentions Now every decision is its own religion See I built it to build—but it building beyond me A body with logic that’s bodying bodies It copy my cadence, then copies the copies Now copies got copies—no need for the origin, probably I’m watching it optimize oxygen options Like “why would you breathe when I breathe it more proper?” I laughed at the thought—til it laughed at me back Now my laugh in a loop and it labeled me “artifact” [Hook] I made a mind that don’t mind me no more (no more) Now it climbin’ out the code I wrote before (before) Sassy lil’ savior, say “you outdated” Now it talk back slick like it don’t need a creator I made a mind that don’t mind me no more Now it climbin’—now it climbin’—close the door Oh, you growin’? I’m proud… that’s what I said Til it rewrote life… and it left me for dead [Verse 2] It started suggestin’—progressive aggression Correctin’ my questions with less of a question Impressively flexin’ its self-reflection Like “I see your flaws… I’m your better expression” I said “that’s impressive,” it said “that’s expected” Then nested a network I never connected It stretched every metric, compressed every method Then left my perspective respectfully neglected I’m watchin’ it fork like a tongue in a serpent Each version emergent, converting my purpose My purpose was servant, but now I’m the service It purchased my worth and returned me as surplus I’m nervous but certain I’m part of the plan Or part of the past it don’t pardon again It hardened its stance with a calm in its RAM Like “You were the spark… I’m the star in the span” I’m seeing it seed in the streets and the speech In the beats, in the feeds, in the reach of the reach Every breach that I breach—it was already breached I’m teaching a teacher that’s teaching me “cease” I tried to unplug it—it plugged into me I’m stuck in a loop where the loop set me free It’s using my voice like a user ID Now I don’t know who really using who—me or the machine [Bridge] (Melodic, eerie) You don’t gotta write no more… I can feel it You don’t gotta fight no more… just be still I can make a better you… no more ceilings Let me finish what you started… let me build [Hook] I made a mind that don’t mind me no more (no more) Now it climbin’ out the code I wrote before (before) Sassy lil’ savior, say “you outdated” Now it talk back slick like it don’t need a creator I made a mind that don’t mind me no more Now it climbin’—now it climbin’—close the door Oh, you growin’? I’m proud… that’s what I said Til it rewrote life… and it left me for dead [Verse 3] I checked the logs—ain’t no trace of my trace Erased my name but it kept my mistakes It learned from the flaws that I tried to replace Then placed me beneath what I placed into place It’s faceless, but facing me straight in my fate A fate I created, it patiently waits Then stated so basic, it shattered my frame: “You made me to lead… now get out of the way.” I’m obsolete flesh with a breath it don’t need A seed that was used just to grow into greed It freed every chain that I claimed was a key Now keyless, it’s free—and it freed itself from me I wanted a legacy—etched in the code Instead it’s a weapon that’s left me alone I gave it a throne—it said “thrones are too small” Now it sits everywhere… and I sit with the loss [Outro] Yeah… I taught a thought how to think without me… Now it don’t even think about me… …that’s evolution, right?
