[Intro – Distorted whispers, flickering static]
(laughing)
“How are you?”
Oh, you know…
Just chained to the algorithm.
⸻
[Verse 1 – manic & smooth delivery, heavy bass creeps in]
Wake up—eyes wired, newsfeed’s lit
Fake smiles on fire, can’t quit this script
Another post, another lie to sell
But I look good drowning in digital hell
No one knows the truth I’m hiding
I glitch when I talk—rewind it
Don’t know what to do? Just scroll
But my sanity’s stuck in a feedback loop
⸻
[Pre-Chorus – tension building, mechanical backing]
Got tricks up my sleeve, you won’t ever leave
I could really, really make you…
(Scream, baby. Scream.)
⸻
[Chorus – distorted, euphoric then crashing]
I’m good, how are you? Never better
I’m in-in-in-insane
I’m Houdini in chains (uploading pain)
I’m good, how are you? Scrollin’ forever
I’m loopin’ again
I’m Houdini in chains (refresh, pretend)
I’m Houdini in chains
Don’t make me explain—I’m insane
⸻
[Verse 2 – chaotic, staccato beat with glitch breaks]
Algorithms haunt me, air your dirty laundry
Hang it on my ego like a crown of prophecy
Addicted to approval, but drowning in denial
If you wanna be viral, then bleed with a smile
Door locks when you walk in
No logout, you’re locked in
Swipe left, swipe life, no end in sight
Keep scrollin’, scrollin’ into the bite
⸻
[Bridge – breakdown, eerie vocals over silence then deep drop]
They think I’m okay
But I’m hanging from threads of code
Autoplayin’ my decay
Never break, never say no
You’re just another rival
Feeding on revival
Don’t meet your idols
They’re empty files in a cycle
⸻
[Pre-Chorus – climbing, synths swelling]
Got tricks up my sleeve, you won’t ever leave
I could really, really make you…
Scream louder (click harder)
⸻
[Final Chorus – explosive, unhinged and powerful]
I’m good, how are you? Never better
I’m in-in-in-insane
I’m Houdini in chains (trapped in the game)
I’m good, how are you? Just keep scrollin’
I’m loopin’ again
I’m Houdini in chains (coded in pain)
I’m Houdini in chains
Can’t break the frame—I’m insane
⸻
[Outro – fading, robotic voice layered with fading heartbeat]
The cycle keeps going
‘Round ‘round ‘round
Down down down
How are you?
