Luca Rosso - Legacy.zip Lyrics

[Intro]
Whispers in the kitchen, head tilts at the table
Power plays and mind games, uncle's always able
To pull the strings so subtly, now I see it clear
Silicon Valley's just my family dinner, brought up to this year

[Verse 1]
Uncle's subtle nods became corporate board room plots
Tech bros acting righteous while they're tying mental knots
Playing rebels in their hoodies, pretending they're the change
But I've seen this game before, just wealth changing lanes
Remember how he'd lean in close, voice dropping low
"Family first," he'd whisper, while controlling all the flow
Now I'm watching CEOs do their performative dance
Same shit, different setting, giving "disruption" its chance

[Chorus]
All these tech lords thinking they're so f*cking new
But I've seen this movie, uncle showed me what's true
Power never changes hands, it just wears different clothes
From Calabrese dinners to Silicon Valley shows
It's all manipulation, yeah, it's all just a game
Different generation, but the bullshit stays the same

[Verse 2]
OpenAI drama like my family Christmas fights
Everyone's the hero in their own f*cking lights
Uncle taught me well how to read between the lines
Now these startup saviors showing all the same signs
Strategic leaks and tweets like whispers after mass
Playing victim while they're sitting on their pile of cash
Merit's just a myth they sell to keep the wheels turning
While they pass the torch like my uncle's subtle yearning

[Bridge]
They think they're revolutionaries, but they're just modern dons
Trading pasta sauce recipes for Python GitHub spawns
Same old power transfer dressed in corporate speak
But I learned this language when I watched my uncle peak

[Verse 3]
Every founder's story's got an uncle pulling strings
Every unicorn's just family business with some wings
I see through their PR like I saw through Sunday prayers
When uncle's benedictions came with subtle power shares
Y'all ain't fooling me with this succession theater show
I grew up watching masters of the power transfer flow
You ain't disrupting shit, just repackaging the game
My uncle would be proud, yeah, he'd know your real aim

[Outro]
So keep your TED Talk wisdom and your startup manifestos
I learned more about power from those Sunday pestos
Cause whether it's in Sicily or down in Silicon Valley
The power play's the same, just a different finale
Uncle, look at your legacy, it's gone digital now
Still teaching me lessons on the who, what, and how
Of keeping power close while pretending to share
Through calculated whispers and a well-practiced stare
