The Digital Hearth

[Verse]
The carpet pressed its patterns into my knees
Cross-legged in the office, a temporary peace
I was looking up, following the line of your hand
To a glowing window into a distant land
You showed me the bridge, built of light and of code
Mapping out a lineage on a digital road
Two halves of a world, finally brought to the screen
The most beautiful logic I had ever seen.

[Chorus]
And it was the spark that lit the silent room
A sudden architecture emerging from the gloom
It wasn't just data, it was a way to belong
The start of a language, the beat of a song
I took the flicker and I made it my own
Building a kingdom where I wasn't alone.

[Verse]
I retreated to the shadows of my bedroom walls
Where the hum of the cooling fan softly calls
I spent the hours becoming the thing I admired
A senior design, meticulously wired
The syntax was steady when the world was too loud
A primary logic, a silver-lined cloud
I learned how to pilot, how to navigate the fray
With functional blocks that wouldn't fray or decay.

[Bridge]
It's the dialect of my mind, the root of the tree
The only translation that ever set me free
When the gears start to grind and the static sets in
I go back to the source where the systems begin
Input, output—a soul's engineering
The noise of the static is finally clearing.

[Chorus]
Because it was the spark that lit the silent room
A sudden architecture emerging from the gloom
It wasn't just data, it was a way to belong
The start of a language, the beat of a song
I took the flicker and I made it my own
Building a kingdom where I wasn't alone.

[Outro]
Every soul in the directory…
Every line a way to say I am here.
Compiled.
Optimized.
Home.
