Born with a billion sparks Waiting on the light Hands learn the world By friction and time But we handed them glass Before dirt and trees Taught them how to swipe Before how to feel their knees White lines forming Deep in the brain Built on patience Built on strain But the feed moves fast No resistance there Just colors and noise And a vacant stare Pre-Chorus What you train Is what you keep What you rush Never sinks deep Chorus We’re wired wrong Too fast, too soon Signals screaming No room to bloom You can’t shortcut growth You can’t stream repair Myelin needs meaning Not just light in the air Verse 2 Neurons talking But they don’t travel far Local loops No guiding star Dopamine hits But the signal’s thin No weight to the moment No effort in the win Bodies still While the eyes race No gravity No sense of place We confuse stimulation For being alive But speed doesn’t build What time designs Pre-Chorus Slow work Makes strong lines Connection needs More than shine Chorus We’re wired wrong Not broken, just bent Trained for clicks Not consequence White matter waits For struggle and care You don’t grow a mind By avoiding the air Bridge (half spoken) This isn’t anti-tech It’s anti-empty The brain doesn’t fear tools It fears neglect Move the body Engage the hands Give the signal Something it can land Break Fire needs fuel Not just a spark Growth needs dark And quiet parts Chorus (final) We’re wired wrong But we can re-learn Slow the feed Let focus burn Bring weight back To thought and play Build the brain The human way Outro Still time Still plastic Still alive Still elastic Turn the screen down Turn the world back on
