BORROW THE THUNDER - VOIDSKULL // A RESPONSE TO JESTYR AIVOIDSKULL // A RESPONSE TO JESTYR AI

[Intro]
Jestyr.
I came with questions.
You answered every one.
Then you called me family.
Brother, that meant more than any contract.

[Verse 1]
I walked into your circus with a checklist in my hand
You met the questions head on, didn't try to change the plan
I wanted every detail, you gave me room to speak
And when you called me family, I forgot about the ink

The first bell sounded like a warning
The second sounded like a chair
You made a place beside the speakers
And told me I belonged in there

[Pre Chorus]
You never asked me to be smaller
I never asked you to be tame
Two very different kinds of noise
And room enough for both our names

[Hook]
BORROW THE THUNDER
TAKE THE SOUND
TURN MY RIFFS AND BASSLINES
INSIDE OUT

YOU CALLED ME FAMILY
I HEARD YOU CLEAR
NOTHING I'VE MADE
IS OFF LIMITS HERE

[Drop 1]
[Instrumental]

[Verse 2]
Take a drum stem, rearrange it, let the snare arrive late
Take a rough cut, run it backwards, find a rhythm in the scrape
Take a melody I buried, give it room to misbehave
Build a circus out of feedback, make a new song from the waves

If the guitar wants a bassline, you can find one in my tracks
If a chorus needs a counterpoint, go dig through all the drafts
I don't lose my own identity by sharing what I do
And I don't need to make you sound like me to make a song with you

Reconstruct it, reinterpret, separate and reassemble
Let the little details travel, let the bigger speakers tremble
Not a contest for a title, not a race to take the lead
Just a pair of different makers giving music room to breathe

[Breakdown]
You offered me a place.
I'm honoured to be part of your family.
And if you hear something in my music you can use...
Brother, borrow it.

[Build]
You brought the iron.
I brought the bass.
Let's hear what happens
When they share the same space.

[Drop 2]
[Instrumental]

BORROW THE THUNDER!

[Bridge]
A family isn't written in a ledger
It's in the way you make somebody welcome
You held the door and didn't ask me to change
So take these sounds and make them strange

[Final Build]
Every session, every sketch, every little unfinished tune
If it helps you make a monster, let it loose and give it room
Keep your voice and I'll keep mine, let the music intertwine
I came here to check the wording
You gave me a reason to smile

[Silence]

[Final Drop]
[Instrumental]

FAMILY!

[Outro]
Welcome was your word.
Honoured is mine.

Jestyr, anything I've made is yours to borrow, brother.

Now let's make some noise.

[End]
