[Intro — digital hum, no beat]
[Robotic voice]
System online.
Access requested.
[GLITCH]
Access denied.
[Silence]
[Akari — spoken]
You really thought you had permission?
[GLITCH]
That's funny.
[Electronic bass drops]
[Verse 1 — sleek rhythmic rap]
Click, click, tell me what you wanna change
Try to put my whole life inside your little frame
Drag, drop, edit me, rearrange
But I don't run on commands, baby, check the name
New tab, new rules, I'm opening mine
You keep hitting enter, I'm deleting the line
Try to read my code like you know what it means
But there's more underneath than you see on the screen
[GLITCH]
C-C-Can't define me
C-C-Can't redesign me
You want control?
Get behind me
No password
No key
No way inside
This system belongs to me
[Pre-Chorus — melodic, electronic]
Try Ctrl-C
You can't copy me
Ctrl-V
Still won't make you me
Escape, escape
I'm breaking free
[Beat cuts]
But Ctrl + Me?
[Whisper]
Doesn't exist.
[Beat drops]
[Chorus — electronic chant]
NO ACCESS
NO PERMISSION
YOU CAN'T CTRL ME
No command
No submission
YOU CAN'T CTRL ME
Click all night
Try every key
There's no shortcut
That gets to me
NO ACCESS
NO PERMISSION
[GLITCHED VOCAL]
C-C-CTRL ME?
[Verse 2 — faster rap]
Swipe left, swipe right, still can't choose
I'm not an option sitting there for you
Turn me down? I turn myself up
System overload when the bass erupts
You want sweet?
You want quiet?
You want me perfectly compliant?
[Pause]
Error.
I wasn't built like that.
[Beat switch — faster]
Backspace
Delete
Take your hands off me
Shift gears
New screen
Watch me change the scene
Alt this
Edit that
Still can't crack my code
I choose where I go
I choose what I know
[Japanese flow switch]
誰にも決めさせない
私の道は私が選ぶ
鍵なんて渡さない
この世界は私のもの
[System voice]
Unauthorized control detected.
[GLITCH]
Override failed.
[Silence]
[Akari — calm]
Still trying?
[Small laugh]
Okay...
Watch this.
[Beat glitches violently]
CTRL—
CTRL—
CTRL—
[Complete silence]
ME?
[Huge beat drop]
[Final Chorus]
NO ACCESS
NO PERMISSION
YOU CAN'T CTRL ME
No command
No submission
YOU CAN'T CTRL ME
Try Ctrl-C
You can't copy me
Try Ctrl-V
Still won't make you me
ESCAPE
DELETE
I hold the key
No one gets control of me
[Music begins malfunctioning]
[Robotic voice]
System error.
Control unavailable.
[Akari — whisper]
Correction.
[Pause]
Control denied.
