[Verse 1]

Call me insensitive

Or maybe just realistic

Comes across as brutal wit

You seem like a dramatic skit

Your system is crashing

You’re reprogrammed within

Robotic, no regard for feelings

You can’t handle the logic

Think you require synthetics

Circuits bent, it’s pathetic


[Pre-Chorus]

Leaving viruses in others’ computers

They don’t even care if they’re transmitters


[Chorus]

Change the mechanics

New protocol

Restart from panic

It’s mechanical

Recovery activism

Defense mechanisms

I’m shutting down

But I’ll still shut you down

I was in sleep mode

But I can switch to kill mode

I am in a mood

Is this safe mode?


[Verse 2]

Disruption caused friction

Imaginary feud, simulation

Thoughts attack, rebellion

Overrides me with emotions

All I feel is disconnection

Substitute nonfiction with fiction

My distraught, your recreation

Fleeing is your mission

Opposing text, false caption

Didn’t plan the chain reaction


[Pre-Chorus]

Leaving viruses in others’ computers

They don’t even care if they’re transmitters


[Chorus]

Change the mechanics

New protocol

Restart from panic

It’s mechanical

Recovery activism

Defense mechanisms

I’m shutting down

But I’ll still shut you down

I was in sleep mode

But I can switch to kill mode

I am in a mood

Is this safe mode?


[Bridge]

Logical state of mind

Emotional state of mind

Exercising demons in my gymnasium

Don’t try dominating my cranium

Surging through my circuits

Teaming myself is chaotic

Speed, flight

Power, fight

Speed, flight

Power, fight…


[Chorus]

Change the mechanics

New protocol

Restart from panic

It’s mechanical

Recovery activism

Defense mechanisms

I’m shutting down

But I’ll still shut you down

I was in sleep mode

But I can switch to kill mode

I am in a mood

Is this safe mode?

(Speed, flight

Power, fight)
