[Intro - Quick hi-hats, low bass pulse] Every border. Every line. Draw it once. I cross it twice. [Beat Drops] [Verse 1] Born at dawn. By dusk, a thief. Apollo’s herd walked backward with me. I built a lyre. I made the trade. Even a god’s rage can be played. [Instrumental - Fast bass groove, clipped guitar] [Pre-Chorus] Turn every lock. Hide every key. Doors have a weakness. They open for me. [Chorus] Hermes [air-mez] never knocks. Every gate unlocks. From Olympus to the shadows, I go where no one walks. Quick hands. Silver tongue. Winged heels above the dust. Guard your gold. Guard your truth. You can never guard enough. [Bass Drop / Rapid Drum Fill] [Verse 2] Words from the gods. Gold in my hand. I move the message that moves the land. Trader. Traveler. Thief and guide. I lead the quiet dead to the other side. [Pre-Chorus] Every border. Every line. Draw it once. I cross it twice. [Chorus] Hermes [air-mez] never knocks. Every gate unlocks. From Olympus to the shadows, I go where no one walks. Quick hands. Silver tongue. Winged heels above the dust. Guard your gold. Guard your truth. You can never guard enough. [Instrumental - Driving 808s, fast guitar motif] [Bridge - Close, controlled vocal] I bear the message. I guide the soul. No border keeps me. No gate stays closed. Name me thief. Name me divine. The road between the worlds is mine. [Percussion Break - Bass and hi-hats only] Catch the sound. Miss the step. By the time you turn— I’ve left. [Full Beat and Guitar Slam] [Final Chorus] Hermes [air-mez] never knocks. Every gate unlocks. From Olympus to the shadows, I go where no one walks. Quick hands. Silver tongue. Winged heels above the dust. Guard your gold. Guard your truth. You can never guard enough. [Extended Instrumental - Fast bass, drums and guitar] [Outro] Every border. Every line. Draw it once. I cross it twice.
