Kali Storm - Burnout Protocol Lyrics

[Intro]
Three days deep, no sleep in my veins
Studio lights flickering, going insane
Analog hum, these circuits know my pain
Father calling, I'm too far gone again

[Verse 1]
Ketamine dreams in a basement full of wires
Delete button hit, watch six months expire
They leaked my shit, now my mind's on fire
Trapped in this loop while my sanity retires
Posted up with demons and vintage gear
Voice in my head saying "Get the f*ck outta here"
But I can't stop now, too deep in the void
Everything I touch gets destroyed, destroyed

[Chorus]
72 hours, no shower, just power
Watching my mind start to devour
Everything that I built up
Delete, repeat, I'm feeling stuck
System failure, mental break
Real shit, no fake wellness take
Watch me crash and burn online
Turn my breakdown into your primetime

[Verse 2]
2014, smashed my laptop on the stream
Ten thousand viewers watched me crack at the seams
Y'all made memes while I lost my dreams
Now I'm back here, same old f*cking scene
Six missed calls from my old man
"Son, you're losing it, I don't understand"
But these beats won't let me rest
Till I've given everything that's left

[Bridge]
Synths screaming like they feel my pain
Digital death, I'm going down in flames
Comments saying that I need help
While they stream my descent into hell
F*ck your thoughts and your prayers
This ain't content for you to share
Real breakdown, no aesthetic
Pure destruction, unapologetic

[Verse 3]
Label vultures circle overhead
Waiting for the moment that I drop dead
Turn my struggle to a f*cking thread
Commodify until nothing's left unsaid
But I'm the one who holds delete
Watch me wipe it all, admit defeat
In this basement, losing ground
Till these analog dreams finally drown

[Outro]
Three days deep, no sleep, no peace
Let the system crash, find my release
Father's voicemail plays on repeat
While I let this madness feel complete
