Mayday

[Vocal: Male, rapid-fire aggressive rap with extreme internal rhyme density, controlled breath pacing, haunting melodic hook] [Intro – Instrument: Distorted engine hum, glitched radio chatter, rising sub tone] —Mayday— May—may—may— Yeah— [Verse 1 – Dense flow] I’m in the data decay of your day when the radar’s delayed and the signal is fraying You say you okay but the play-by-play breaks and the frame of your safety is fading I’m baked in the waveform, I warp what you thought was a straight line, I bend it and braid it You pray for a save but the save never came, I’m the name that you say when you say it Mayday—maybe I made you dependent on stable Then pulled every cable, disabled the label of “able” You cradle the table, I shake it, I take what was faithful and break it unstable I’m fatal to fables, I’m able to take every angle you mapped and erase it I’m static in stacks of the packets you pass when you asking for backup I fracture the math of your path and your craft when you plan to adapt but I catch up You latch to the last bit of traction you had but it’s ash in your hand when I snatch it You crash into patterns, I patterned the crash, I’m the cause and the caption [Pre-Chorus] Say Mayday— But I’m the reply No airway— Just nowhere to fly [Chorus – Chantable but heavy] MAYDAY, MAYDAY I’m the voice in the void when it all goes wrong MAYDAY, MAYDAY Every line you deploy, I dissolve that song NO WAY, NO WAY Every breath you take starts to misalign You don’t send for me— I’ve been in the signal the whole damn time [Instrumental Break – Tight riff loop, stutter edits] [Verse 2 – Even denser] I’m the pit in your stomach, the plummet, the sudden combustion of function The button you’re pressing for help but it’s stuck in a loop of corrupted instruction I’m clutching the junction, disrupting the current, converting your comfort to nothing You trusting the structure? I puncture the pressure and watch how it ruptures in public I’m may-day as “may I?” or “may not survive it?” A play on the phrase when your faith isn’t private A weight on the wing and the wind when it shifts and the lift doesn’t live like you pictured it flying I’m in every decimal drift in your mental, incremental collapse of your center You entered a system you swore you could temper—I render it ember, remember? No measure can measure the pressure I treasure, I sever the tether you tied to together You weather whatever? I’m better at setting the level where everything shatters forever [Pre-Chorus] Say Mayday— No signal returned No replay— Just lessons that burn [Chorus – Larger, layered] MAYDAY, MAYDAY I’m the voice in the void when it all goes wrong MAYDAY, MAYDAY Every line you deploy, I dissolve that song NO WAY, NO WAY Every breath you take starts to misalign You don’t send for me— I’ve been in the signal the whole damn time [Breakdown – Instrument: Sub + kick, ultra tight vocal chops] May—day—may—day— Break—frame—same—way— I’m the slip in the script— I’m the glitch in the grip— I’m the shift when it dips— Then it flips—then it rips— (Go—go—go—) [Drop – Full band slam] [Bridge – Half-time, hypnotic] You don’t fall— You fold inside Slow dissolve— No place to hide You don’t break— You bend, then blur Word by word— I rewrite “sure” [Extended Instrumental Breakdown – Guitar lead, choke stops, bass groove] [Final Chorus – Max intensity] MAYDAY, MAYDAY Every system failure got my signature MAYDAY, MAYDAY Every “we okay” turns to “this is it” NO SAVE, NO WAY Every breath you take starts to misalign You don’t escape me— I’m the last voice in your mind [Outro – Engine hum fading, radio static] —Mayday— …still no reply… —Mayday— …goodbye…
