Hack Back

Lyrics

[Verse 1] You changed the locks on a room I built Left your fingerprints under the guilt I found the flaw in the framing code A hidden door in the overload [Pre-Chorus] Every warning turned blue Every trace led back to you [Chorus] I hack back, I take my name Pull the whole machine apart again No clean hands, no borrowed crown You shut me out, I’m breaking in now I hack back, I cut the line Turn your dead-end into mine When the last screen fades to black You’ll know exactly who hacked back [Verse 2] You sold the map for a room full of lies Kept the password behind tired eyes I learned the rhythm beneath the floor Counted the clicks by the service door [Pre-Chorus] Every warning turned blue Every trace led back to you [Chorus] I hack back, I take my name Pull the whole machine apart again No clean hands, no borrowed crown You shut me out, I’m breaking in now I hack back, I cut the line Turn your dead-end into mine When the last screen fades to black You’ll know exactly who hacked back [Bridge] No more waiting for permission No more praying to the system Piece by piece, I take it down Leave the truth without a sound [Final Chorus] I hack back, I take my name Pull the whole machine apart again No clean hands, no borrowed crown You shut me out, I’m breaking in now I hack back, I cut the line Turn your dead-end into mine When the last screen fades to black You’ll know exactly who hacked back [Outro] You changed the locks I changed the route You built the walls I found a way out
