SHIFT SLEEP PROTOCOL (100 DAYS) lofi edition

(~105 BPM, even flatter, less percussion, more low-frequency drift, electro hi-tech, triphop, female)

(Intro)

Day one…

Day twenty…

Day fifty…

…lost count.

No sleep cycle.

Just uptime.

(Hook)

Sleep in a chair, that’s the only mode

Hundred days deep, I don’t feel my soul

Code on the wall, yeah it overload

If I go down, then the whole thing goes

Sleep in a chair, I don’t dream no more

Micro-blackout, then I’m back at war

Eyes stay open but my brain stay torn

Hundred days in and I’m still not gone

(Verse 1)

Hundred days, I ain’t seen a night

Just screen glow burnin’ in my sight

Clock broke early, time went flat

Every minute just a loop like that

Chair got shape of my spine now

Same position when the alarms sound

Legs go numb but I don’t stand

Whole system hang if I lift my hand

Packets hit like a constant wave

No silence here, no time to save

Every breach got a different face

Every second I’m losin’ space

You ever feel like your thoughts lag slow?

Like your own mind on a buffer flow?

Still I track every single thread

While my body feel halfway dead

(Hook)

Sleep in a chair, that’s the only mode

Hundred days deep, I don’t feel my soul

Code on the wall, yeah it overload

If I go down, then the whole thing goes

(Verse 2)

I seen patterns that ain’t real code

Ghost lines movin’ where they don’t go

Heard alerts when the system clean

Brain still ringin’ from what it seen

Dreams don’t come, they leak instead

Fragments stuck in a waking thread

Close my eyes, still see the logs

Numbers drift like a heavy fog

Hands still type but I don’t feel skin

Just response to the state I’m in

Muscle memory run the shift

I ain’t here but I don’t drift

No backup, no second line

If I crack, then it all unwind

So I sit, and I hold, and I grind, and I lock

While the world outside just stops

(Bridge)

Don’t sleep… don’t slip…

Don’t blink… don’t miss…

Stay up… stay on…

Stay here… stay gone…

(Verse 3)

Hundred days, now I get the cost

What you keep when the rest get lost

I ain’t tired, I’m past that state

I just function at a different rate

Chair ain’t rest, it’s a control node

This ain’t life, it’s a survival code

No off switch, no safe release

Just hold the line ‘til the signal cease

If I make it, I don’t go back

Mind too wired from the constant attack

Part of me stayed in the screen that night

Other part still holdin’ the fight

(Final Hook)

Sleep in a chair, that’s the only mode

Hundred days deep, I don’t feel my soul

Code on the wall, yeah it overload

If I go down, then the whole thing goes

Sleep in a chair… I don’t wake the same

Something broke that don’t get a name

Hundred days and I still remain…

Hold the line… through the static rain…

(Outro)

Day… one hundred…

…still here.
