Oceanic Syndicate - Deadlock Lyrics

[Intro]
System failure, yeah, can't process this pain
Sippin' lean just to numb these thoughts in my brain

[Verse 1]
Trust was the server, now it's crashin' down
Asher played me like a glitch in the crown
Thought we was brothers, now you sellin' our sound
Major labels got you actin' like a f*ckin' clown
Went ghost mode, yeah, I had to shut it down
Pour a four in my cup, yeah, drown the background
Can't compute these feelings, system's in the red
All these fake friends got me wishin' I was dead

[Chorus]
Deadlock, deadlock, my mind's frozen in place
Can't move forward, can't erase (yeah)
Deadlock, deadlock, emotions shut down
Trust got violated, now I wear this crown (ayy)
Sippin' drank till I can't feel my face
Betrayal got me in this mental space

[Verse 2]
You was plottin' while we built this shit together
Thought our bond was solid like winter weather
Now my heart's cold, frozen like December
Cut you off quick, yeah, I won't remember
All these vultures circlin' round my name
Industry snakes tryna play their game
But I'm too smart, yeah, I see through the frame
Built these walls up, they all look the same

[Bridge]
Ain't no messages gettin' through (nah)
Emotional firewall, that's the truth (facts)
Recalibrate my mind, that's what I do
Pour more drank, yeah, that's the mood

[Verse 3]
Reset the system, purge you from my files
Delete your number, block you for a while
Cold calculations, that's just how I move
ISTP mindset, got nothin' left to prove
Strategic silence, yeah, that's how I cope
Violated trust got me sippin' on this dope
Paralyzed feelings, but my mind stays sharp
Playing chess while you playing checkers in the dark

[Chorus]
Deadlock, deadlock, my mind's frozen in place
Can't move forward, can't erase (yeah)
Deadlock, deadlock, emotions shut down
Trust got violated, now I wear this crown (ayy)
Sippin' drank till I can't feel my face
Betrayal got me in this mental space

[Outro]
System rebooting... yeah
But trust ain't loading... nah
Keep that same energy... forever
Deadlock activated... permanently
