[Verse 1]
Found your tapes in dusty boxes tonight
Hidden stories, buried deep inside
Black and white photos tell me lies
But your music speaks the truth, it never dies
Shamisen strings through analog haze
Breaking free from those silent days
[Pre-Chorus]
They told you "proper girls don't make those sounds"
But in secret, you turned it up loud
Now I know why I feel this fire
Breaking rules just like you, higher and higher
[Chorus]
Digital ghost in the machine
Dancing through time with you, my queen
Your rebellion flows in my veins
Breaking chains, breaking chains
F*ck what they say, we're gonna play
Tonight we're making waves
Through the static, through the pain
Breaking chains, breaking chains
[Verse 2]
Digitizing memories at 3 AM
Each crackle tells me who I am
Your voice distorted through the years
Speaks the truth I've always feared
We're the same soul, different time
Breaking free, it's our design
[Bridge]
In the glitch between then and now
Your spirit shows me how
To tear down these walls
Let the bass drop, watch it fall
Grandma's secret symphony
Finally set free
[Chorus]
Digital ghost in the machine
Dancing through time with you, my queen
Your rebellion flows in my veins
Breaking chains, breaking chains
F*ck what they say, we're gonna play
Tonight we're making waves
Through the static, through the pain
Breaking chains, breaking chains
[Outro]
Your frequencies live on in me
In every beat, in every scream
No more silence, no more shame
The future bass speaks your name
We rise, we break, we create
This is our escape
