Kishi Nara - Flex Protocol Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Midnight glow on my screen, another show to survive
Notifications light up my room like Tokyo never dies
My laptop's burning up, but I can't stop now
Gotta keep this smile on while I'm breaking down

[Pre-Chorus]
Ring ring, ping ping, everyone wants a piece
Of this digital dream I'm selling on repeat
Filter perfect, but I'm falling apart
Trading pieces of my soul for a heart react

[Chorus]
I'm glitching out, but the show must go on
Another night, another mask to put on
They want the girl who never breaks
But behind these pixels, I'm wide awake
Living life in HD while I'm fading gray
Click click boom, that's the price I pay

[Verse 2]
3 AM and the chat keeps rolling in
Tips and hearts like digital dopamine
Streaming life through a cracked display
While my real world's slipping away
Factory girl turned cyber queen
But some nights I just wanna scream

[Bridge]
Buffering, buffering, my soul's buffering
Can anybody see the real me?
Or am I just code now?
Another ghost in the machine
Living for the likes and follows
Dancing through these hollow halls

[Chorus]
I'm glitching out, but the show must go on
Another night, another mask to put on
They want the girl who never breaks
But behind these pixels, I'm wide awake
Living life in HD while I'm fading gray
Click click boom, that's the price I pay

[Outro]
The fan keeps humming
My heart keeps running
Digital survival
Virtual revival
But in this pixelated paradise
At least I'm still alive
