Another Chapter Songtext
I remember when it all started, something from a dream
Addicted to the black and green letters on my screen
Quicker than my peers, so inherent what it means
A uni student, prudent, coming out at seventeen
Watching code ascend 'til it towers like the Eiffel
Spend my time debugging and they're charging by the cycle
Studying the language so this guide is now my bible
The beauty of the baud dedicated this disciple
The world of the electron, wasn't to be stepped on
Hackers are the future, we're the ones for you to bet on
Fuel to the fire like computers were a chevron
But this is all decades way before I met John
So I let on, knowledge gives to wisdom
Got a job and it pays, and doesn't end in prison
Help secure computers by installing malware in 'em
Hoping they don't twist it turning me into the victim
One more story, one more hacker
Back to the past when the path got fractured
Sometimes calm, sometimes disaster
Turn the page and we start another chapter
Just another story, just another hacker
Just another past, up until it shattered
Sometimes calm, sometimes disaster
Turn the page and we start another chapter
This white hat collar job saving me my backbone
Just the grind on my mind, seems like I'm half clone
Working for the money, you know how the math goes
Skills run of mill, feeling like I've plateaued
Happy with my job though can't afford a chateau
Could be worse, could've gotten stuck with Castro
Caught a pink slip, slip into the shadows
The fire that's been set inside, lungs are like tobacco
Economic downturn the reason that I'm told
Appeal would a be waste there's no chance that they'd uphold
There's no getting caught watch the scene as it unfolds
Worst case scenario I'm sure to get paroled
Abandoned so I fold, cancelling the show
Handed a la mode, now commanded and controlled
Inject drop cats, cross-site all that
Felon catching shells every time I hear a callback
One more story, one more hacker
Back to the past when the path got fractured
Sometimes calm, sometimes disaster
Turn the page and we start another chapter
Just another story, just another hacker
Just another past, up until it shattered
Sometimes calm, sometimes disaster
Turn the page and we start another chapter
Don't trust anyone
Turn the page
Don't trust anyone
Turn the page
Compilers and source always all up on my screen
Internal code, kernel mode, even in my dreams
Eat sleep breath speak writing all the time
Structs loops data types always on my mind
Then it's kicked to the curb, "you're not welcome here today"
But this is what they made so I couldn't walk away
Looking down the road seeing exponential users
Figured I’d invest since computers are the future
Learn from the past so I studied all manoeuvres
Tightened up the OPSEC, patching like it's sutures
Feel I got the short end sharpened with the blade
Minimum in wage while the criminals get paid
Justified the raise compensating and betrayed
Cause fear is too expensive, the cost to be afraid
The dangers of incentive and a motive in the mixture
I'm hearing "farewell", well now there's just Viktor
One more story, one more hacker
Back to the past when the path got fractured
Sometimes calm, sometimes disaster
Turn the page and we start another chapter
