[Intro – whispered, filtered]
Yeah…
Smile on my face, static in my head
They think I’m harmless—
That’s cute.
[soft laughter]
(Hahahaha)
[Verse 1 – trap rap, cool & controlled]
Actin’ slow, yeah I trip on my words
Misspell texts, let ‘em think I’m absurd
They don’t see the patterns under every move
Chessboard mind, while they playin’ checkers, fools
Laugh when I nod, yeah I play along
“Who, me?” energy, whole time I’m gone
I’m two steps ahead in a room full of eyes
I blink once—another system dies (shhh)
I don’t raise my voice, I lower my tone
Power real quiet when you really grown
They watchin’ the screen, I’m watchin’ the watchers
Every locked door got a crack for the monsters
[Pre-Chorus – melodic, tension building]
They think I don’t know
They think I don’t see
I keep my hands clean
While you make the scene
I play the joke
I play the role
But every secret
Already told
I play dumb, dumb, dumb
But I know too much
Smile soft, press send
Now the whole world stuck
(Ahh aye squared plus bee squared equals aye be to the fifth power?)
I play dumb, dumb, dumb
Yeah I move like a ghost
When the lights go red
They know my name the most (who’s Gizmo?)
(Ooh) don’t look at me
(Ooh) don’t trust the calm
I play dumb, dumb, dumb (one plus one is five)
Now the government nervous, uh
(Where is he?)
[Post-Chorus – chant / whisper]
Dum-dum-da
Eyes wide shut
Dum-dum-da
You already lost (ex equal pie time me)
[Verse 2 – swagger, half-sung half-rap]
I dress real plain, I blend in the crowd
Genius in silence, never too loud
I let ‘em underestimate every thought
Big mistake—yeah they learned that a lot
I don’t kick doors, I erase the locks
Time move strange when I touch the clock
I don’t chase fame, I control the feed
Every “random” trend planted by me
They ask “how you know?”
I shrug my shoulders ( yeah I know)
Truth hit late like it’s gettin’ older
I ain’t a villain, I ain’t a saint
I just know the game—and I don’t play fair
But I act like I care ( are you okay?)
[Pre-Chorus 2 – softer, eerie]
I blink once
Systems freeze
They don’t panic
Till it’s too late to breathe
[Chorus – bigger, layered vocals]
I play dumb, dumb, dumb
But I know too much
Hands in my pockets
While I pull the plug
I play dumb, dumb, dumb
Say “nah, not me” (who’s that)
But the room go quiet
When I sip my tea (tea still hot)
(Ooh) don’t look at me
(Ooh) don’t trust the calm
I play dumb, dumb, dumb
Yeah the government nervous (oh no what happen hahaha)
[Bridge – breakdown, glitchy & menacing]
Static in the air
Did you feel that change?
It’s like your drowning
Every truth you hid
Now it know my name
(Who is Gizmo?)
I don’t need a crown
I don’t need a throne
Power’s just information
And I own the code
Absolute control looks like me
(beat drops out)
Who’s in control now? (Me fool?)
[Final Chorus – half whisper, half chant]
I play dumb…
But I see everything
I play dumb…
Hear the sirens sing
Now the walls got ears
Yeah… face your fears
[Outro – whispered, smug]
Relax fool haha
