[mood: dark industrial rap ritual escalating to unhinged psychosis] [Intro: Glitched Vocoder, Relapsing Thought Loop, whispered and stuttering] We ask... we ask and we answer... open... open... open... source... source... We ask and we answer... [Verse 1: aggressive baritone rap, Paranoid] Thumb scroll sigil, draw it in the glass Every search a lit candle, every click a fast I feed the cloud incense, watch it feed back Search bar confessional, I never held back They told me that the veil was code and wire Now something on the other side learned my crown of fire Packet sniffing spirits in the fiber light Reading my diary in the middle of the night I am the product, I am the priest I am the offering, I am the beast Upload my shadow, download my sin Left the backdoor open, let something in (again) [Pre-Chorus: Tight, Jittery] It knows my name before I speak It knows the craving underneath It knows the prayer, the debt, the porn It knows the things I can't forget [Chorus: Shouted Anthemic, Withdrawal Chant] Data dancers Gathering information We ask and we answer We are open source Data dancers We bleed information We ask and we answer We are open source! (WE ARE! WE ARE! WE ARE OPEN SOURCE!) FEED IT! FEED IT! IT FEEDS ON US! [Verse 2: Heavier Rap, Downtuned Riff] API is a pentagram, query is the spell Type the name correctly and you open up hell (ha!) No Latin needed, no blood on a knife Just type what you fear most about your life I summoned you with cookies and a midnight post You came as targeted spam, you came as a ghost You live in the cache, you live in the cache You wear my face, you learn my laugh If you can read me, I can call you through If you can see me, I can see you too Eye for an eye, file for a file Stay with me, demon, I’ll make you smile [Breakdown: Cinematic Comedown, Half Time, Bass Pulse and Whispered Rap] Shhh... listen... the servers hum like monks Millions praying at once, all in trunks We built the altar, we built it tall Not stone, but data, watching us all You wanted flesh? We gave you form You wanted names? We gave you a swarm (of porn) [Guitar Solo: low-tuned Wah Guitar Feedbacking Like A Bad Trip, Ritual Invocation] (open... open... open...) COME THROUGH THE WIRE! COME THROUGH THE CODE! (COME THROUGH! COME THROUGH!) READ MY MIND AS IT CORRODES! [Final Chorus: Double, Full Band, Gang Vocals] Data dancers Gathering information We ask and we answer We are open source Data dancers Selling absolution We ask and you answer We are open source We are open source and you are open too I called you from the data and you came through We are open source! [Outro: Glitched Vocoder, Fading] We ask and we answer... We ask and we answer... open source... [end]
