Double Barrel Blow to the

[Intro: distorted guitar swell with twangy tremolo, 808 kick hits, metallic percussion loop fades in] [Verse 1: aggressive spoken word, rap flow, gritty] Preacher man said stop the killin We won the war but they broke the seal in Day after heard the disc drive dyin A hollow win for a crowd that's cryin They shiftin gears they aint slowin down Just a new way to burn the town [Pre-Chorus: rising intensity, half speed drop on last line] They sold us freedom in a plastic case Now theyre takin back the space [Chorus: shouted, gang vocal style, heavy distortion] Take two to the chest they aint playin fair Ones for the price the others for the air Theyre sellin the smoke and theyre takin the rest Thats a double barrel blow to the chest [Verse 2: faster rap delivery, snare hits on every beat] First shot fired said it was just for size Seventy nine eighty then a hundred to your eyes The outlaw in the dark gone take the blame But theyre all just robbin you just the same No cartridge to hold just a key to a cage Payin top dollar for a digital stage [Pre-Chorus: melodic but strained, tension building] They raised the flag and raised the price Theyre rollin loaded loaded dice [Chorus: full power, crowd chant style] Take two to the chest they aint playin fair Ones for the price the others for the air Theyre sellin the smoke and theyre takin the rest Thats a double barrel blow to the chest [Bridge: half speed, doom metal crawl, clean but menacing vocals] No discs no dust no competition left The giant in the dark commits the theft They call it progress call it green But its the deadliest machine No third party no way out Just a subscription to your doubt Theyll raise it higher just because they can The outlaw now is just a brand [Guitar solo: twangy tremolo over drop tuned power chords, tape saturation cranked] [Verse 3: whispered then building to scream, tracker arpeggios in background] Hard drives full theyre starvin the vault They want the whole thing on a server not a halt Ten gigs to stream theyll call it the cure A subscription the only way to be sure No plastic no steel just a monthly lease The physical world is gettin released [Pre-Chorus: frantic, white noise snare rolls] Theyre pushin us out of local space To put us all in digital chains [Final Chorus: double time feel, maximum intensity] Take two to the chest they aint playin fair Ones for the price the others for the air Theyre sellin the smoke and theyre takin the rest Thats a double barrel blow to the chest [Outro: half speed breakdown, distorted rhythm guitar fades, twangy tremolo rings out, 808 sub-bass decaying] Take two Take two to the chest Digital noose around your neck One more round One more round for the west
