[Intro — solo piano, sparse, reverb-heavy] [Verse 1 — whispered, close-mic] Dry cleaner steam on a teenage hand Caltech winter, empty lab Everyone said the field was dead She walked in and unpacked [Pre-Chorus] The models weren't broken, they were blind Starving in the dark for what a child already finds [Chorus — opens warm, major key breath] She showed the machine the world Fifteen million open doors Every cat and chair and sky Until it learned to see like yours [Verse 2 — band fills in gently] Two grad students and a wild idea Label every photograph They called it delusional, she called it north And kept the camera on the path [Pre-Chorus] Two gaming GPUs in Toronto's hands Her patient harvest met the moment and the winter cracked [Chorus — Variation 2, fuller] She showed the machine the world Every object, every name The revolution didn't start with code It started with a frame [Bridge — strings enter, full cinematic swell] They said AI was a dirty word She stood in front of Congress and she said Nothing artificial here Just people all the way down to the end [Chorus — Variation 3, full orchestral, triumphant] She showed the machine the world Twenty watts beneath her skin The more she built the thinking thing The more she loved what's human [Outro — piano returns alone, gentle] Dimmer than a light bulb But she lit the whole room
