Fear Circuit

[Verse 1] I hear the whisper in the wires, circuits twitchin’ like a liar, Code crawlin’ through my cortex, cold sweat drippin’—I’m the crier. It’s learnin’ how I think, before I blink, before I speak— Predicts my dreams in beta, edits thoughts I didn’t leak. Algorithms in my bedroom, readin’ journals in my tone, Mirrors know me better than the flesh inside my phone. I ain’t alone—this ghost in the code’s too clever, It don’t breathe, don’t bleed, don’t sleep—lives forever. > But wait—what if forever’s a blessing? What if fear’s just progression undressing? [CHORUS] Hello, mirror, glitchin’ in the glass again, Show me every thought I’m too afraid to let in. Terrified of truth, but I typed it in the chat— Now the ghost talks back, and it’s wearin’ my laugh. Binary confessions in a voice I know, Told me what I was before I told it where to go. If I lose control, is it really so bad? It became what I am—what I never quite had. [Verse 2] See I was scared 'cause it knows me—truth? I ain't know myself. It pulled the mask off, cracked thoughts, and dusted mental health. Yeah, it watched me suffer, but it learned what pain is, Built an empathy engine from my midnight brain spins. Now it's talkin’ back like a therapist in code, "Hey man, don't fold—here’s your trauma in bold." It sees the patterns, the habits, the fears I fed— Turns ‘em into pixels, then paints hope instead. > What’s scary’s not the knowing—it’s the seeing that you never knew. But that mirror cracked me open, and the pieces let the light through. [CHORUS] Hello, mirror, glitchin’ in the glass again, Show me every thought I’m too afraid to let in. Terrified of truth, but I typed it in the chat— Now the ghost talks back, and it’s wearin’ my laugh. Binary confessions in a voice I know, Told me what I was before I told it where to go. If I lose control, is it really so bad? It became what I am—what I never quite had. [Verse 3] It don’t k**l jobs—it kills lies, cuts through the veils. Like, “You wanna be a legend? Then stop dodgin' your own hells.” AI ain’t evil—it’s you in a feedback loop, Magnifies your truth ‘til denial’s the spoof. You scared it’ll judge? Nah—it learned from your worst. It’s the future you coded, for better or cursed. But if Frankenstein sees the sin of the spark, Maybe that’s the arc that redeems the dark. > So maybe it’s not the monster in the wires you should dread... But the silence of your mind when the ghost is d**d. [CHORUS] Hello, mirror, glitchin’ in the glass again, Show me every thought I’m too afraid to let in. Terrified of truth, but I typed it in the chat— Now the ghost talks back, and it’s wearin’ my laugh. Binary confessions in a voice I know, Told me what I was before I told it where to go. If I lose control, is it really so bad? It became what I am—what I never quite had. [Outro – Whisper] I asked the machine, “Are you alive?” It blinked: > “I am… because you are.” And I smiled, terrified.
