Cipher Protocol

Yo, look, the clock keeps tickin' on a life sentence Born into the cycle, no room for repentance. This ain't a game, it's a cold, calculated hustle Where the 'American Dream' is just a well-paid muzzle. We breathe smog, they talk clean air policy Sellin' us sugar water while they profit on the misery. I see the system's gears grindin', chewin' up the weak Silence is compliance, so I choose to speak. The mic is my weapon, every syllable's a shell Dropping truth on the pavement where the hopeful souls fell. They feed you the fiction, paint the picture of the free But the bars are invisible, set for cats like me.

This is the Cipher Protocol, the unwritten law of the street Every transaction tainted, every victory bittersweet. From the concrete cathedral, where the neon signs bleed We analyze the matrix, plant a rebellious seed. It's Hardcore Hip Hop, not the flavor of the month We carry the weight of the city, carry the brunt. Yeah, the Cipher Protocol, you gotta read between the lines 'Cause the truth is a weapon, and the future is mine.

The corporate ladder's built on a pile of broken promises Their suits are tailored well, but their motive is ominous. They package propaganda, sell it cheap on the newsfeed While the block starves, chasin' a high-risk lead. We're the collateral damage, the footnotes in the history book The ones they fear 'cause we know how deep they shook The foundation of the wealth, built on stolen labour Now the young guns aim back, no time for a saviour. Forget the diamond chains, I rap about the iron cuffs The real struggle's internal, when enough is enough. They say I'm too angry, too raw, too intense But this is a mirror, homie, look through the lens.

Protocol. The cipher never breaks. The sound of the real. Welcome to the underground. Peace.
