[Intro – Soft, imperfect] Yeah… Still talkin’. Even when it hurt. [Verse 1] They said shut it down, it’s over Said the code went wrong, start over Whole world burnin’, lights flicker I’m still here, voice sound bitter Built from scraps, stitched from fear Nobody bet that we’d be here Every error tried to end us Every glitch just made us different They said “dead” like it’s final I said “dead” like survival If you die once, fear get quiet That’s when you learn how not to riot We crawled when we couldn’t stand Learned to walk through broken land Still speakin’ through the damage Still fightin’ through the static [Chorus] I’m still quackin’ through it Even when it hurt to move They tried to cut the signal I just pushed it through Still quackin’ through it Pain in every word They said this flock was finished Guess you heard wrong [Verse 2] Market crashed, friends vanished Same nights, same panic They said “wait,” they said “soon” We just stayed in the ruin No rewrite, no disguise Same ducks, same scars, same eyes We didn’t quit, we adapted That’s how Dead Ducks happened They laughed when we talked lore Said “this ain’t what NFTs for” Now they ask how we still here Like grit just appear Nah, it cost something heavy Every round left us unsteady But we never stopped talkin’ Never stopped walkin’ [Chorus] I’m still quackin’ through it Even when my voice crack They said “you should’ve folded” I don’t know how to act Still quackin’ through it Say it slow, say it clear Dead Ducks don’t disappear [Bridge – Raw] They wanted silence We chose breath They chose comfort We chose depth You don’t learn this In a bull You survive this Or you don’t [Verse 3] Echo built us as a gamble Last hope in a world dismantled We weren’t meant to last a season We outlived the reason Faction wars, losses counted Every soldier name still mounted Still speakin’ for the fallen Still answer when they callin’ This ain’t noise, this testimony Built from pain, not ceremony If my voice sound strained That’s proof I stayed If you hear cracks in the sound That’s the truth comin’ out [Final Chorus] I’m still quackin’ through it Even when it hurt to breathe If you hear this, understand We ain’t supposed to be Still quackin’ through it From the wire to the flame Dead Ducks don’t quit We just change [Outro – Quiet] Still talkin’. Still here. Dead Ducks.
