No Protocol

Lyrics

[Intro - cold 808 rumble, distant vaporwave pads, low-pass filtered female whisper]
No signal… no rules… we move in the static

[Verse 1 - trap hi-hats stuttering, dark synth stabs, half-spoken male rap]
City lights glitch like broken code,
I’m walking through fire in a velvet robe.
Sirens in the rearview, hearts on delay,
We don’t ask permission, we just disobey.
Moonlight dripping off chrome and steel,
Every promise we made got a counterfeit seal.
Speed past the checkpoints, never hit the brakes,
Living in the error where the protocol breaks.

[Pre-Chorus - rising filtered synths, layered harmonies, tension swell]
No king, no law, just the beat in our veins,
We rewrite the night in electric remains.

[Chorus - cinematic hybrid drop, sidechained 808s, vaporwave-soaked female vocals]
No protocol—break the chain, let it fall,
We dance in the static where the signals dissolve.
No protocol—turn the lights to black,
We own every shadow, never looking back.
No protocol—echoes in the rain,
We’re ghosts in the system, singing through the pain.

[Verse 2 - darker trap bounce, reversed vinyl crackle, pitched male ad-libs]
Eyes like scanners cutting through the haze,
We trade our tomorrows for digital days.
Neon confessions on a midnight drive,
Swallowing the silence just to stay alive.
Every heartbeat’s a hack, every kiss is a crime,
We’re rewriting the future one glitch at a time.
No maps, no masters, just the road and the night,
Burning every boundary in the vaporwave light.

[Pre-Chorus 2 - swelling pads, distant choir, rising tension]
No script, no fate, just the spark in our hands,
We light up the dark where the protocol stands.

[Chorus - explosive drop, wide bass, distorted female hook, full hybrid band]
No protocol—break the chain, let it fall,
We dance in the static where the signals dissolve.
No protocol—turn the lights to black,
We own every shadow, never looking back.
No protocol—echoes in the rain,
We’re ghosts in the system, singing through the pain.

[Bridge - stripped trap beat, lone piano, vulnerable male croon]
If the wires go quiet and the grid goes blind,
We’ll still find each other in the static of time.

[Final Chorus - massive cinematic swell, doubled vocals, last drop with reversed cymbals]
No protocol—scream it to the sky,
We’re the error they can’t erase, the reason they cry.
No protocol—until the signal dies,
We live where the rules are just beautiful lies.

[Outro - fading vaporwave pads, distant 808 heartbeat, whispered female ad-libs]
No protocol… no protocol…
