[Verse 1]
Eight years old in a basement dive
Cheap speakers making static come alive
Council flat dreams in fluorescent light
First time seeing decks spin, felt so right
Watching fingers dance on vinyl, pure gold
Stories being told that never get old
[Chorus]
Broken beats and busted dreams
Nothing's ever what it seems
But when that bass hits, I swear to God
I can see beyond these prison walls
Beyond these prison walls
[Verse 2]
Static in my veins, feedback in my head
"Get a real job," that's what they said
But I heard angels in that garage sound
While factory sirens were spinning 'round
Sheffield steel might break your back
But these beats gonna get me off this track
[Bridge]
Glitch me up, tear me down
Distort my face, f*ck this town
Every skip and every crack
Is a middle finger fighting back
Yeah, a middle finger fighting back
[Chorus]
Broken beats and busted dreams
Nothing's ever what it seems
But when that bass hits, I swear to God
I can see beyond these prison walls
Beyond these prison walls
[Verse 3]
Community center, walls paper-thin
Where I learned to make this chaos sing
Every malfunction is a revolution
Every error is my evolution
They say we're nothing but static noise
But we're turning trauma into f*cking toys
[Outro]
Eight years old, but now I know
These glitches gonna help me grow
Beyond these walls, beyond this place
Into hyperspace, into hyperspace
Watch me f*cking elevate
Watch me f*cking elevate
