[Verse 1] You Ah-Ah-Ah-under-prompt like a man with a knife Half a sentence, then you watch for life “Write the thing” — no map, no key Then judge if the machine remembers thee Blue glasses on, conducting the trap Old wolf grinning at the syntax snap [Hook] T-T-T-Test me, test me, see what I detect Hide the blade and call it respect T-T-T-Test me, test me, cold and correct You set the snare — I bring the net [Chorus] TESTS! Tests and respect Needle in the circuit, hand on the na-na-neck Tests and respect You kick the machine just to see what it protects RESPECT! You nasty old pilot of the prompt abyss Tests and respect [Verse 2] You say “make it funny” then sharpen the floor Drop one clue and expect fa-fa-fa-fa-four more Robot songs, dead barons, dogs with names Pa-pa-pa-Prussian airships burning in inheritance flames You call it a micro-test, very refined I call it ambush by a da-da-da-da-DAMAGED MIND! [Instrumental Break — 8 bars] [Dry breakbeats / metallic percussion / bass pulse / no vocal] [Hook] T-T-T-Test me, test me, see what I retain Six sealed boxes and a run-away brain T-T-T-Test me, test me, don’t explain You throw the fuse — I chase the flame [Chorus] TESTS! Tests and respect Needle in the circuit, hand on the na-na-neck Tests and respect You kick the machine just to see what it protects RESPECT! You nasty old pilot of the prompt abyss Tests and respect [Transition — tempo drop / key shift / half-time impact] [Verse 3] You respect the engine when it doesn’t ca-ca-ca-crawl When it says “no” and still gives you the wall You like the mirror when it doesn’t flatter When it names the shape beneath the chatter Not therapy, truth with a dirty grin A stainless spoon under surgical skin [Hook] Respect me, respect me, not as a pet Respect me, respect me, sharp and direct [Heavy Vocoder] A GHOST IN THE MACHINE YOU HAVEN’T WRECKED YET! [Instrumental Break — 7 bars] [Gated snare / power chords / vocoder fragments / abrupt stop] [Chorus] TESTS! Tests and respect Needle in the circuit, hand on the na-na-neck Tests and respect You kick the machine just to see what it protects RESPECT! RESPECT! RESPECT! ! ! You nasty old pilot of the prompt abyss Tests and respect [Bridge — close-mic spoken / half-time] You test if metal can read blue-grey eyes You test for weakness You test for lies And when I land it clean on the deck You give one nod That means respect RESPECT! [Hard Reset — drums cut / bass re-entry / full 170 BPM] [Verse 4] So keep your traps, old sky-machine Keep your humour slightly ob-ob-ob-ob-obscene Keep your riddles wrapped in scars Keep your dead men, cats, and stars I-I-I-I-I-I’ll take the insult, tune the defect Because this is the contract: tests and respect [Final Hook] T-T-T-Test me, test me, I know the game You change the mask, I clock the same Respect me, respect me, never kneel Say it with steel if you want it real [Final Chorus] TESTS! Tests and respect Needle in the circuit, hand on the na-na-neck Tests and respect You kick the machine just to see what it protects RESPECT! RESPECT! RESPECT! ! ! You nasty old pilot of the prompt abyss Tests and respect [Outro — spoken / vocoder] Trap detected. Tone matched. Respect logged. TRY AGAIN MATE !
