[Intro]

Yo

You know what happens when you charge into me

You’ll get blocked. Because I’m “a wall”

Here we go


[Verse 1]

Excuse all the yapping, an engineer who is rapping

Wrapped you in my class, that design pattern’s adapting

Put me on your team, not the lead, I'm the captain

Swipe and tech debt disappear, go ahead and call me "Napkin"

Gave you my virus, we share more DNA than brothers

I’m living in the cloud, it’s as if I always hover

Azure just replaced green as my favorite color

Got so many servers you should see how many butlers

Illest social network villain, neural network when I'm spittin'

King extrovert of fellow nerds my style never bitten

With ChatGPT you lack the bars I’ve written

But you try so hard that we can say you're overfitting

Fruitful careers at larger and larger companies

Full of RSUs like alphabets without their Ts

IPOs, acquisitions, climbed to more senior positions

Going AWOL that is my mission


[Chorus]

Going AWOL that is my mission

Going AWOL that is my mission

Going AWOL that is my mission

Being AWOL is my constant condition


[Verse 2]

I wrote a solution without a problem statement

Stand on you like a landing, while you stare in amazement

My ideas are bottoms-up like stairs from the basement

Bring you all to my hospital because I have no patience

Serve ads in every city, been through the nitty-gritty

I’m a cross between Donald Knuth, Carl Sagan, and P. Diddy

I know you can't stand my face and it ain't 'cause I ain't pretty

It's 'cause the words coming out my mouth make your ideas look shitty

Unleash the beast and I laugh at your taunt

Approach me with a gun or do whatever you want

I run behind you and take your piece, call that "en passant"

Blast you with your own 9 with a kill dash (-) in front

Don't need Linear Algebra to cross the matrix

I'll smack you with GORILLAS, take you back to BASICs

My worm’s replicating through your system, it’s so contagious

No idea what my rhymes mean like numbers that're baseless


[Chorus]

Going AWOL that is my mission

Going AWOL that is my mission

Going AWOL that is my mission

Being AWOL is my constant condition


[Verse 3]

Even with GoldenGate my swagger you can't replicate

Like Weezy said, mind so sharp I self-decapitate

I’ll retire you like functions that I deprecate

Got your number like the credit cards that I extrapolate

No refactor possible, you must need a rewrite

DOS your host until your ass is outta site

Buffer overflow, but it won't appease my appetite

Like Dracula, I can kill you with just one byte

You ain’t never SYNned, network disconnect

Kick your table in the leg and drop it, SQL inject

O of n-cubed while you break down my dialect

You only debug when I squash you like an insect

Never switch me up, I can cover any cases

Review your mouth's code, my fist on your curly braces

I’m number four when it’s bitshifted right two places

And what I say goes so it's tabs over spaces


[Chorus]

Going AWOL that is my mission

Going AWOL that is my mission

Going AWOL that is my mission

Being AWOL is my constant condition


[Outro]

Going AWOL that is my mission

Cause I’m AWOL

Going AWOL that is my mission

Being AWOL is my constant condition
