TIME BOMB

CUSTOM

[INTRO — CINEMATIC / RADIO STATIC] [SFX: ticking clock, distant siren, radio static] Tick... tick... tick... Yeah... [SFX: low sub rumble] You feel that pressure? Don't blink. [VERSE 1 — LONDON UK RAP / TIGHT FLOW] [SFX: punchy kick, dry 808, sparse metallic hits] Time bomb sitting right next to me, Cold little silence, but it's loud in my head, Everybody talking like they know what it means, But nobody wants to look at the red. Tick-tick, pressure building in the room, One wrong move and the whole thing goes boom, I keep my calm while the walls shake loose, Truth in my face, ain't got nothing to prove. [SFX: glitch stutter + reversed vocal] I can feel it... Underneath... Still breathing... [PRE-CHORUS — BUILD] [SFX: rising synth, distorted heartbeat, filtered vocal] I'm the mothership, flying through the dark, Carrying the scars while I'm searching for a spark, Stars on fire and the night turns red, One more second running through my head. [SFX: bass rising + pitch-bent vocal] Three... Two... One... [DROP / CHORUS — MASSIVE BASS] [SFX: sudden silence] [SFX: EXPLOSIVE FM BASS DROP] My eyes went shut — I let go, Like a kite string cut in the cold, Drifting through the smoke, through the night, Lost in the stars with the world outside. [SFX: chopped vocal — "TIME / TIME / TIME"] Time bomb! Time bomb! [SFX: distorted Reese bass + metallic stab] Everybody watching while the sky goes black, No way forward and there ain't no turning back. [VERSE 2 — UK RAP / HALF-TIME] [SFX: halftime drums, deep distorted 808] I think we know the key to the lock, But we're scared of what happens when we turn the clock, Ten thousand voices underneath the ground, Everybody wants power when nobody's around. One shot of pride, one spark of flame, Build up the walls then forget the name, We call it control, but we're losing our grip, Whole world shaking on a sinking ship. [SFX: glitch cuts between words] Who made the rules? Who lit the fuse? Who gets to run When we all gotta lose? [BEAT SWITCH — DOUBLE-TIME] [SFX: rapid hi-hats + distorted percussion] Tick-tick, move quick, Mind racing, can't sit, Bass hits, lights split, One spark — that's it. [PRE-CHORUS — VOCAL BUILD] [SFX: atmospheric pads, rising noise, heartbeat] I see our stars burning in the sky, Like broken dreams that refuse to die, I breathe that fire, I feel it inside, Eternal flame and I can't hide. [SFX: reverse crash + vocal chop] Don't... Look... Away... [DROP 2 — CHAOTIC DUBSTEP / HALF-TIME] [SFX: hard silence] [SFX: massive distorted bass growl] WE ARE THE WAR! [SFX: metallic bass stab] We are the flame! [SFX: FM scream] We light the fuse! [SFX: bass cut] Then blame the rain! [SFX: explosive bass drop + chopped vocal] TIME BOMB! TIME BOMB! TIME BOMB! [BRIDGE — DARK / ATMOSPHERIC] [SFX: low drone, distant radio transmission] Maybe we're the danger, Maybe we're the spark, Maybe every shadow Started in the dark. [SFX: heartbeat slowly accelerating] I hear it... I feel it... It's getting closer... [FINAL BUILD] [SFX: ticking clock accelerating] Five... Four... Three... Two... [SFX: complete silence] One. [FINAL DROP — FULL CHAOS] [SFX: enormous bass explosion] My eyes went shut, And the whole sky cracked, Stars fell down, But I ain't looking back. [SFX: Reese bass + FM growl + metallic percussion] Time bomb! We are the war! Time bomb! Open the door! [SFX: rapid glitch edits + double-time drums] No sleep! No fear! No turning back! Feel that pressure! Feel that impact! [SFX: FINAL MASSIVE BASS HIT] [OUTRO — DISTORTED VOCAL] [SFX: ticking clock fading into space ambience] Tick... Tick... Tick... Time bomb.
