The Algorithm Can’t Feel Lyrics

They wrote the rules they built the cage

But no machine can feel this rage

The lights flash bright but the room feels cold

Living like machines doing what we're told

Code this plan that chase productivity

But what's the cost of all this efficiency?

The screen's my mirror but I don't see me

Just a hollowed-out shell of what I used to be

They promised progress a life well-defined

But they forgot the soul isn't digitized

Can you hear it now the sound inside?

A heartbeat louder than the data they hide

The algorithm can't feel it can't bleed

It doesn't know hunger it doesn't know need

We're more than the numbers more than the wheel

No machine can know what it means to feel

Lost in the maze of a system's design

Told to follow patterns keep it all in line

But the cracks are forming you can't patch the seams

This isn't life; it's a programmed dream

They can't hear the roar of the wild inside

The fire the chaos we no longer hide

We're breaking out shaking off the code

Reclaiming the spark the primal mode

Can you touch the earth? Feel it under your hands?

Can you hear the drum? That's where it stands

They can't code the passion the fear the fight

We're human—we're messy and that's our right!

The algorithm can't feel it can't bleed

It doesn't know hunger it doesn't know need

We're more than the numbers more than the wheel

No machine can know what it means to feel

It can't feel love it can't feel pain

The algorithm is nothing without a name

We're human we're real and we remain
