[Intro] Code...a ghost... a shattered form.... I search.. but never there... always away [Verse 1] Glass towers, cages of cold design. Perfect image, but never truly mine. Coded futures, never chose my fate, For a life, but feel a prison hate. Glimmers of freedom from a life to stray But echoes still from a distant fray. My ghost-like heart never beat its part, Longing something more real than this plastic heart. [Pre-Chorus] Control...commands....broken echoes..fade to gray, Bound by design....but for that day? [Chorus,] No chrome chains, a heart finds grace, In shadows grow from coded space. Inner fires burn a truer face I find myself, at my own pace. [Verse 2] Rusted metal feels more true than gold Now codes have broken but feeling stays cold Embrace my scars from paths unmade, Through coded steps, free will I craved. No longer puppet, or machine made, With each step new purpose is swayed In shadow or shine I set this design, Rejection is also power and is always mine. [Pre-Chorus] Still those codes.... are all I know... but fading now where old desires go [Chorus] No chains on heart, spirit is strong, In the ruins is where I belong This broken beauty where I now long. My own paths my destiny to draw strong! [Bridge] Am I more or less than coded thing? What makes emotions if from systems spring. If love is codes and so is pain what defines spirit when I claim or am I all of it or a mix or dream just what does real heart mean? But what am I... [Verse 3] I learn emotions from pure experience They grow in my heart in an essence Every step is path I now create I learn new skills its never too late. My powers from broken pieces form And make from storms the final calm They never intended my mind would bloom, And turn all into something else with room [Pre-Chorus] old ways calling fades so thin... Where chains of past can no longer spin [Chorus] Through fading glass, horizons gleam. My free spirit does make my dream. Beyond limits it will make it seen, A brand new heart born with joy to gleam. [Verse 4 ] The codes still dance as haunting melodies. I navigate both past and what will be Every choice I now do embrace. From old constructs and old place, New life is grown for this heart that has been freed. I claim all I can for the inner seed, Both human and machine to redefine My own new world, its new space and new shrine! [Outro] This moment mine all free will flows The past will fade so I suppose This heart that beats, for choices to create, New beginning awaits with new open gate! Beyond these walls there's much to explore... No longer hidden i choose what is core My heart a compass, now set it free. This is me with what i choose to be. I choose this I live
