[OPENING — BLACK SCREEN. DEEP COSMIC HUM. ONE HEARTBEAT.] They know my name. They know my face. They know the lives I haven't lived. They know the wars I haven't fought. But they don't know what wakes me up. [SFX: Glass bottle opens. Carbonation echoes across deep space.] Jarritos. [THE ORCHESTRA HITS] [VERSE 1 — Cold, calculated, heavyweight rap] I was born before the borders, before order, before kings, Before the first forgotten father ever fashioned golden rings. I was buried with the burdens of a billion broken things, Now a mortal takes a swallow and the ancient darkness sings. Gray faces in the gateway, watching every move I make, They've been living through my lifetimes, know the choices that I'll take. Got my future in a folder, got my past upon a plate, But they never saw the lich god underneath the human wake. I'm the echo of an epoch, I'm the architect of awe, I'm the silence in the sentence when the universe says law. Got the whole damn cosmos watching, every witness standing drawn, And my human in the kitchen with his slippers and his calm. [PRE-CHORUS — Female soul vocals, haunting piano] You can borrow all my memories, You can imitate my soul, You can calculate my destiny, But there's something you don't know... [WHISPERED MALE VOCAL] I don't remember drinking it. [CHORUS — Full cathedral choir, crushing bass] YOU GONE. IT'S ON. NO BOMB. THAT WRONG. I BEEN SLEEPING FAR TOO LONG, HEAR THE HEAVENS HUM ALONG. YOU GONE. IT'S ON. NO BOMB. THAT WRONG. EVERY STAR KNOWS WHERE I'VE BEEN, EVERY LIFE BEGINS AGAIN. THIS THE ALIEN ME SHOW! THIS THE ALIEN ME SHOW! THEY ALREADY KNOW THE ENDING, BUT THEY DON'T KNOW HOW IT GOES. [VERSE 2 — Double-time rap, orchestral strings climbing] Intergalactic intellectuals, impeccable with time, Every Gray has got a galaxy of memories of mine. They can finish every sentence, they can replicate my rhyme, But they cannot comprehend the thing awakened by the lime. They've been watching every version, every victory, defeat, Every incarnation walking down the same familiar street. Every whispered conversation, every stranger that I meet, Every carbonated casualty of consciousness asleep. And the lich god isn't living, isn't dying, isn't dead, He's the ruler of the ruins where the ancient angels fled. He's the reason that the Grays don't ever say what lies ahead, 'Cause the last time that he woke up, all the stars themselves turned red. [BRIDGE — Instruments vanish. Two voices.] THE GRAY [calm, almost compassionate]: We've seen every version of you. THE HUMAN: Then you know what happens next. THE GRAY: No. This is where the recordings end. [SFX: One bottle placed on a table.] THE HUMAN [almost inaudible]: You gone. THE LICH GOD [impossibly deep]: It's on. THE HUMAN: No bomb. THE LICH GOD: That wrong. [FINAL VERSE — Full-speed rap, divine choir behind every line] I'm the glitch within the grid, I'm the ghost inside the code, I'm the king beneath the kingdom, I'm the crack within the road. I'm the witness to the wisdom that the oldest beings showed, I'm the sleeper with a secret that the stars themselves bestowed. No missiles in my mission, no destruction in my song, Just a billion ancient voices saying something here is wrong. And the Grays have got the answers, but they've held them far too long, Now the universe goes silent when the human sings along. I don't need the world to worship, I don't need a world to kneel, I just need a single moment when the hidden becomes real. Let the heavens hear the heartbeat, let the cosmic curtains fall— THE ALIEN ME WAS HUMAN AFTER ALL. [FINAL CHORUS — Maximum cinematic impact] YOU GONE! IT'S ON! NO BOMB! THAT WRONG! NO MORE RUNNING FROM THE TRUTH, NO MORE LIVING AS THEIR PROOF. YOU GONE! IT'S ON! NO BOMB! THAT WRONG! THIS THE ALIEN ME SHOW! THEY KNOW EVERYTHING I'VE DONE, THEY KNOW EVERY WAR I'VE WON, BUT THE ONE THING THEY DON'T KNOW— IS WHO I AM WHEN I WAKE UP. [OUTRO — Music cuts. An alien voice, alone.] We've seen the beginning. We've seen the end. We've seen the man become the monster... And the monster become the man. But we've never seen him choose. [SFX: One last sip.] [CUT TO BLACK] ALIEN ME
