Song of the Stray Hero

[Verse 1]
Tiny paws on the old wood floor
Dust in a sunbeam
Shimmering slow
I tilt my head at the open door
Hear that call from a land I don’t know
[Chorus]
I’m the cat of time
Hear me sing it out
From the rooftop tiles to the twilight clouds
Every little note is a claw-marked line
(I’m) chasing ghosts through the halls of time
Meow—turn it up
Let the world rewind
I’m the cat
I’m the cat of time
[Verse 2]
Chasing leaves like they’re ancient signs
Moon in the puddle
Broken and bright
Tail draws circles
Invisible lines
Portals purring open in the night
[Chorus]
I’m the cat of time
Hear me sing it out
From the rooftop tiles to the twilight clouds
Every little note is a claw-marked line
(I’m) chasing ghosts through the halls of time
Meow—turn it up
Let the world rewind
I’m the cat
I’m the cat of time
[Bridge]
[Beat stutters
Bass swells]
Left paw
Right paw
Jump the crack
Nine lives spinning on a vinyl track
If I vanish now
I’ll just respawn
New scratch
Same song
Still moving on (yeah)
[Chorus]
I’m the cat of time
Hear me sing it out
From the rooftop tiles to the twilight clouds
Every little note is a claw-marked line
(I’m) chasing ghosts through the halls of time
Meow—turn it up
Let the world rewind
I’m the cat
I’m the cat of time

Glitchy dubstep with chopped male vocals pitched into feline yowls; bright plucky synth echoes the Ocarina-style vibe in a new melodic motif. Huge sidechained sub drops after tiny, toy-music intros; verses stay sparse with clicky percussion and distant pads, choruses slam with growling bass wobbles and stuttering meows as rhythmic fills. Occasional bitcrushed “hey” ad-libs and laser FX in the turnarounds., theme, dub
