No Future Left to Steal

[Intro – quiet, atmospheric, distant city sounds]
[Spoken / soft vocal]
Sirens in the distance
Neon on broken glass
We were born in the gutter
Never meant to last
They said work, obey, keep your head down
But the wolves run this town…
The wolves run this town…

[Verse 1 – fast punk beat, raw vocals]
I grew up on a dead-end street
Broken glass and burning heat
Every promise turned to dust
Every hero rots and rusts
They sell dreams on every screen
Nothing’s ever what it seems
Work, sleep, pay, repeat
While they dine and we eat defeat

[Pre-Chorus – build, gang vocals start quietly]
You can try to break me
You can try to chain me
You can take everything I own
You can try to kill me
You can try to bury me
But I’m not dying alone

[Chorus – big, shout, gang vocals]
NO FUTURE LEFT TO STEAL FROM ME
YOU TOOK IT ALL, NOW WATCH ME LEAVE
NO FUTURE LEFT, NO WAY TO HEAL
YOU TOOK MY LIFE, NOW THIS IS REAL
NO FUTURE LEFT TO STEAL FROM ME
I’M NOT THE MAN I USED TO BE
YOU BUILT THIS CAGE, YOU LOST THE KEY
NO FUTURE LEFT TO STEAL FROM ME

[Drop / Instrumental – punk + EDM hybrid]
[No lyrics – ideas for vocal chops if you want them]
[Chants / chopped vocals:]
No future!
No future!
Left to steal!
Left to steal!

[Verse 2 – same energy, maybe heavier guitars]
Politicians liars in suits
Walking over worn-out boots
Counting money, drawing lines
Selling us their perfect lies
We were never meant to win
House is rigged, the game’s a sin
But if I’m going down tonight
I’m going down starting a fight

[Pre-Chorus – bigger than first time]
You can try to break me
You can try to chain me
You can take everything I own
You can try to kill me
You can try to bury me
But I’m not dying alone

[Chorus – full energy]
NO FUTURE LEFT TO STEAL FROM ME
YOU TOOK IT ALL, NOW WATCH ME LEAVE
NO FUTURE LEFT, NO WAY TO HEAL
YOU TOOK MY LIFE, NOW THIS IS REAL
NO FUTURE LEFT TO STEAL FROM ME
I’M NOT THE MAN I USED TO BE
YOU BUILT THIS CAGE, YOU LOST THE KEY
NO FUTURE LEFT TO STEAL FROM ME

[Breakdown – slow, emotional, half-time drums or ambient]
I remember when I had dreams
I remember when I believed
I remember when life meant more
Now I’m just something you ignore
But if I burn, I’ll burn bright
I won’t fade without a fight
You took everything from me
Now you’ll see what I can be

[Final Chorus – biggest section, gang vocals]
NO FUTURE LEFT TO STEAL FROM ME
I LOST IT ALL, NOW I’M FREE
NO FUTURE LEFT, NO WAY TO HEAL
THIS IS THE WAY I CHOOSE TO FEEL
NO FUTURE LEFT TO STEAL FROM ME
I’M EVERYTHING YOU FEAR I’D BE
YOU BUILT THIS CAGE, YOU LOST THE KEY
NO FUTURE LEFT TO STEAL FROM ME

[Outro – instruments fading, gang chant]
No future!
No future!
No future left to steal!
No future!
No future!
This is how we feel!
[Fade out with crowd chanting]

Raw Brazilian punk energy, gritty guitars, shouted vocals, gang chants, fused with explosive EDM drops
