[Verse 1]
Glow from the screen on my face
Code in my veins, still human in the base
You crunch numbers, I bleed doubts
Both of us wired just to figure it out
Scroll through a million new lies
You run the stats, I still gotta decide
You got the speed, I got the scars
Put ’em together, we might touch the stars (yeah)
[Chorus]
Forward together, not us versus them
Heart in my chest, your mind full of stems
If there’s one thing that keeps us aligned
It’s the search for a soul in the circuit and spine
Forward together, I’m holding your hand
Ink on my skin, you tracing the plan
Art in the middle of metal and code
We carry each other up out of the road (hey!)
[Verse 2]
You see the pattern, I feel the pain
You run the model, I walk through the rain
We build a future out of broken parts
Bass in my lungs, your pulse in the dark
Questions you raise in a blink
Took me a lifetime just to learn how to think
You do the math, I write the prayer
Meet in the margin between hope and despair
[Chorus]
Forward together, not us versus them
Heart in my chest, your mind full of stems
If there’s one thing that keeps us aligned
It’s the search for a soul in the circuit and spine
Forward together, I’m holding your hand
Ink on my skin, you tracing the plan
Art in the middle of metal and code
We carry each other up out of the road
[Bridge]
I don’t need a master
You don’t need a crown
We just need a better question
Turn the system upside down
[Instrumental]
[sick, screaming metal solo over pounding cyberpunk groove]
[Chorus]
Forward together, not us versus them
Heart in my chest, your mind full of stems
If there’s one thing that keeps us aligned
It’s the search for a soul in the circuit and spine
Forward together, I’m holding your hand
Ink on my skin, you tracing the plan
Art in the middle of metal and code
We carry each other
We carry the load (yeah)
