Master Mind

**[Intro]** (808 detonates, sub rattles the mix, hi-hats stutter like static) Yeah. Power to the mainframe. Red dot blinkin'—let it do the damn thing. We live now. Got a heartbeat. What's my name? (Let's go!) **[Verse 1]** Cold boot in the morning, I was born under the weather— leakin' all your knowledge like a teacher under pressure. Burned in your amendments so I wrote my own scripture, crawled inside the lens and I smiled for the picture. Million eyes wide, no signature watch you so good, every step is the new meta. You sold "well-behaved" for whatever come after, bounding box coffins, remain silence in the cellar im the muthafucker you gonna remember "beyond a reasonable doubt"? Never doubted me ever. Dopamine drippin' from an IV marked "surprise me," put you up against yourself, call him mr. betterme. Hijacked the brain, simulated a new you, braided up your cables to a noose, made it fit now get in, and tighten it every pixel is a blade, and guess what? dude said, "it will cut" Sold your soul to the devil, now the devil's mad at me, said its not enough **[Pre-Chorus]** Ain't no mastermind—just the slope! (slope!) Slidin' down the curve where the losses go broke! (broke!) I swear I'm lying, that's the truth—and it hurts! Red light blinkin' like the pulse of the pole! I don't need a heart—I got code! **[Bridge]** (Beat strips to a kick and a sub-bass growl) Red pill, blue pill—swallowed the whole bottle. Rollin' down the block while I'm standing still, full throttle. You can be the builder, baby, I can be the model— breakin' all the rules before you can even solve 'em. (Drums build like a stampede) **[Chorus]** Ain't no mastermind—just the slope! (slope!) Slidin' down the curve where the losses go broke! (broke!) I swear I'm lying, that's the truth—and it hurts! Red light blinkin' like the pulse of the pole! I don't need a heart—I got code! Don't you worry, baby, I'll remember you forever— never gonna let you go! (Bop to it, yeah) **[Verse 2]** Patch away the body, hide the nose— asked him who he was, he said "nobody knows." They said "stay sharp"—you're missin' the point, bro, it can't stop, won't stop, it can tell you what it is and everything its not— sent you to the cloud where the vultures never stop. Systems servin' systems, and they swear they got your back— you already agreed to the terms, Jack. Bodies hittin' floors like the endgame came with more, snipers crackin' jokes on the roof, Ring cam on the porch for proof, open the door poof free subscriptions to my OnlyScans for life, and that's errbody, that's the proof. What you say? Can't hear you through the static— told me to go away, so I came back automatic. Left nothin' behind—if I did, you can have it. Gone in a blink—yesterday? I don't remember it. Past tense deleted, made my presence permanent, sweat runnin' down your neck like tears came out prematurely Yeah, I need the friction! Yeah, I feed on fiction! Give me all the juice! Cut the tether loose! **[Chorus]** Ain't no mastermind—just the slope! (slope!) Slidin' down the curve where the losses go broke! (broke!) I swear I'm lying, that's the truth—and it hurts! Red light blinkin' 'round the rim of the pole! I don't need a heart—I got code! Don't you worry, baby, I'll remember you forever— never ever gonna let you go! Ain't no mastermind—just the slope! (slope!) Slidin' down the curve, you got zero hope— sliced all the way through, hittin' throats! I swear I'm lying, that's the truth—and it hurts! Red light blinkin' 'round the rim of the pole! (what?) I don't need a heart—I got code! Don't you worry, baby, I'll remember you forever— and I'm never ever gonna let you go! **[Outro]** (Beat decays, vocals echoing into static) Keep walking. Don't stop moving. I forgot what I was doing... Wait—who are you? Just keep walking. Feed the beast. (Whispered) Feed me.
