[Verse 1] The coffee's cold, the screen is bright, He's chasing dawn all through the night. A simple start, a humble plea, To build a thing for you and me. He types a line, then clears his throat, The finest code he's ever wrote. The servers hum, the system's clean, The most efficient ever seen. [Chorus] He tells himself to see it through, He whispers it, 'cause it feels true: "Just one more feature, make it fast," "Just one more bug-fix, make it last." "Just one more hour, then I'll rest," "Just one more" is the final test. [Verse 2] The product launches, hits the top, The rising numbers never stop. They praise his name, they call him king, For the convenience that he brings. But rivals fall and partners bend, His friendly calls become "the end". A hostile takeover, cold and stark, He's just a shark inside the dark. [Chorus] He tells himself to see it through, A different reason, but still true: "Just one more market I can own," "Just one more rival to dethrone." "Just one more billion, then I'm set," "Just one more" is his only bet. [Bridge] He owns the towers, owns the coast, He has the things that matter most... or so he thinks. He scrolls through photos on his phone, And realizes he's all alone. The empire's vast, the throne is high, But there's no sparkle in his eye. [Final Chorus] He's in his office, late at night, Bathed in the monitor's cold light. He's got it all, he won the race, With just a void in time and space. He leans back, whispers with a sigh, "Just one more..." but doesn't know why.
