[Intro]
Yeah...
SSC Eight, let’s go
...or at least let’s try.

[Verse 1]
Opened up a blank page, just me and the beat,
tryna cook that heat, get SSC on repeat.
No theme, no hook, just coffee and doubt,
brain’s on airplane mode I might tap out.

Then BOOM ideas like rain in July,
aliens, heartbreak, a frog who could fly.
Fifty tabs open, ten thousand bars,
half-baked concepts and metaphors from Mars.

One’s too deep, one’s too dumb,
one’s got violins and a medieval drum.
One’s about trends, one’s about fate,
one’s just me yelling “SSC Eight!”

[Hook]
I got no style, I got no plan,
still I believe, yeah, I know I can.
No chorus, no verse, no bridge in sight,
but it’s SSC8, so I’ll be alright.
Got perfection in my head and chaos on my plate,
I’m halfway lost SSC8 gonna be great.

[Verse 2]
Now I’m deep in the zone, but I’m tweaking the tone,
re-recorded one snare for three hours alone.
That bass line? Trash. That rhyme? Too neat.
That mix? Too muddy. That line? Too sweet.

I tried a sad ballad, then flipped to drill,
then added trap hi-hats to a gospel chill.
I made a folk track that turned into punk,
then scrapped it all... man, SSC is a funk.

Started dreaming 'bout hooks, forgot how to rhyme,
thought I had a concept then changed it nine times.
Got five unfinished demos, four panic attacks,
three fake deadlines, and one Google Doc that slaps.

[Hook]
I got no style, I got no plan, (but hey!)
still I believe, yeah, I know I can. (okay!)
No chorus, no verse, no bridge in sight, (where?)
but it’s SSC8, so I’ll be alright.
Got perfection in my head and chaos on my plate,
I’m halfway lost SSC8 gonna be great.

[Bridge]
Maybe it’s not ‘bout the style or the theme,
not the perfect mix or the mastering dream.
It’s that mad little moment at three A.M.,
when your heart says: "Yeah. Hit send."

[Hook – Final]
I got no style, I got no plan,
still I believe, yeah, I know I can.
No chorus, no verse, no bridge in sight,
but it’s SSC8, so I’ll be alright.
It’s messy, it’s wild, it’s always late
but right on time, I’ll create something great.

[Outro]
...right on time.
Maybe.
Probably.
Hopefully.
Let’s go.
