[Verse 1] Windows blink in grids of blue, city breath counts one, then two. Footsteps vanish into rain, I collect the moving frame. Every error tells me where, every whisper maps the air— I don’t touch the loaded spring; I memorize the smallest thing. [Pre-Chorus] Hold the rush behind the teeth, let the picture finish breathing. [Chorus] See first. Be seen last. Decide once. One line drawn—ten futures shunt. See first. Be seen last. Decide once. Cut one thread—watch storms go blunt. See first. Be seen last— decide once… decide once. [Post-Chorus Chop] decide once—decide once—decide once… [Verse 2] Clock-hand shadows cross the door, three small tells become a floor. Noise is only fear in bloom; I subtract it from the room. Hands stay empty, pulse stays slow, angles widen, targets go— not a hero, not a gun; I just choose the single one. [Pre-Chorus] Let the many beg for speed— mercy starts where edges read. [Chorus] See first. Be seen last. Decide once. One line drawn—ten futures shunt. See first. Be seen last. Decide once. Cut one thread—watch storms go blunt. See first. Be seen last— decide once… decide once. [Bridge] (all drums mute; sub pedal swells) Count to five without a sound, find the hinge beneath the crowd. Breathe the room till answers land— say the word with open hand. [Drop] (single decisive hit; glassy plucks bloom, then recede) [Chorus – Whisper Lift] See first. Be seen last. Decide once. Aim so clean the noise is stunned. See first. Be seen last. Decide once. Leave no smoke—just work well done. See first. Be seen last— decide once… [Post-Chorus Chop – Extended] decide once—decide once— (single harmony line) [Outro] Footsteps fold into the rain, picture closes, stays the same. One small choice, the city’s calm— hit, then hush; release the palm. (single hit… tail to black)
