[Intro – lo-fi crackle, distorted radio voice]
(…this is not the message you were meant to hear…)
Static bleeding through the line,
I caught a ghost inside the wire this time.
Lights flicker red, the city shakes,
Every signal hides the choice you make.
[Verse 1 – slow rap, low tone]
Riding hard through the midnight haze,
Neon cuts deep through the alley maze.
Package in hand, but the code ain’t clean,
Numbers burning holes through the city machine.
I wasn’t meant to hear that sound,
Encrypted whispers drag me down.
Monsters stirring in hidden labs,
Alien syndicates drawing maps.
[Pre-Chorus – glitch whisper, overlapping layers]
Signal in the static… calling my name,
Signal in the static… it’s never the same.
What’s real, what’s not, who decides the truth?
I was just a courier — I’m living proof.
[Chorus – cinematic trance swell]
Signal in the static, cuts through the rain,
Every transmission burns in my brain.
Caught in the noise, no turning back,
Every step forward erases the track.
[Verse 2 – rap builds momentum]
Hand on the core, it glows too bright,
Syndicate eyes cut through the night.
Every tower’s a watcher, every alley’s a snare,
Every whisper reminds me I’m already there.
I don’t want this — it don’t want me,
But the code keeps singing endlessly.
Jazz in the wires, glitch in the beat,
Signal in the static, can’t retreat.
[Bridge – crooner overlay, orchestral rise]
I thought I was free, but I’m caught in a scheme,
Every wave of static drowns out the dream.
The city’s alive — it’s speaking in tones,
I was never alone, never alone…
[Chorus – extended, trance and glitch effects]
Signal in the static, cuts through the rain,
Every transmission burns in my brain.
Caught in the noise, no turning back,
Every step forward erases the track.
Signal in the static, it calls my name,
Changing the map but the city’s the same.
Every word hidden, every truth locked,
Signal in the static — the door’s been knocked.
[Verse 3 – whispered rap, distortion-heavy]
They’ll come for me, I already know,
Monsters moving in the undertow.
Aliens deal in coded scars,
Humans fade under neon stars.
I wanted a beat, just rhythm and rhyme,
But now I’m the center of a crime.
No way out, no turning away,
The static is louder every day.
[Outro – glitch loop, fading voice]
(Signal in the static… signal in the static…)
It found me.
It owns me.
It won’t let go.
