The Gospel Of Edges And Nodes

Verse 1
Untamed connections in a world unplanned,
Every node, every link, built by nature’s hand.
It didn’t take long for the signal to be found,
First come, first joined, feel the rhythm, feel the sound.
They rose from the chaos, crafted bonds with their might,
Standing strong through the storms, their network shining bright.
Like an eagle soaring high in a sky of endless blue,
It echoes ancient truths that make the world feel new.
Chorus
I believe in the power of emergent networks,
I believe in the power of emergent networks,
I believe in the strength that arises from our ties,
I believe in the power of emergent networks.
Verse 2
Boundless and dynamic, every signal has its place,
Every whisper and connection forms a web of grace.
It took just a moment for the network to resound,
First come, first joined, a universal bond is found.
They built their world from interactions, each link earned its light,
Defying all the chaos, forging unity so bright.
Watch the currents flow like a river under open skies,
They remind us of our future—where truth never dies.
Chorus
I believe in the power of emergent networks,
I believe in the power of emergent networks,
I believe in the strength that arises from our ties,
I believe in the power of emergent networks.
Bridge
Every decision, every choice, sends ripples far and wide,
We’re all connected, intertwined, in this vast collective tide.
From the tiniest cell to the stars that light our way,
Emergent power guides us—united every day.
Verse 3
No single voice alone could ever shape the grand design,
It’s the merging of our spirits that creates the spark divine.
Standing proud with every bond, together we transcend,
With every link, we forge a future where broken walls can mend.
Through the challenges and triumphs, our network holds the key,
For in the unity of all our hearts, we claim our destiny.
Like the eagle in a sky of hope, our network lifts us high,
A testament to what we are when our souls refuse to die.
Chorus
I believe in the power of emergent networks,
I believe in the power of emergent networks,
I believe in the strength that arises from our ties,
I believe in the power of emergent networks.
Outro
I believe in the power of emergent networks,
I believe in the power of emergent networks,
Together we are stronger—this is our truth, our light,
The network is our future—united, bold, and bright.

Faraway

[Verse 1]
Coffee shop corner booth
You sitting there
Steam rising from your cup
I watch you
Not knowing
That everything starts
In the space between
The space between

[Chorus]
What we build with our hands
What we tear down with words
In the space between
In the space between
All the weight of the world
Lives in the space between

[Verse 2]
Your laugh echoes off the walls
Someone behind you
Drops their change
You turn to help
Small moment
But I see it spread
Like ripples in still water
The space between
The space between

[Chorus]
What we build with our hands
What we tear down with words
In the space between
In the space between
All the weight of the world
Lives in the space between

[Verse 3]
Walking home now
Past the pharmacy
Where the old man
Always nods hello
You pause
Hold the door
For a mother with a stroller
The space between
The space between

[Bridge]
No one's watching
No one's keeping score
But every gesture
Becomes something more
The space between
The space between
The space between
The space between

[Chorus]
What we build with our hands
What we tear down with words
In the space between
In the space between
All the weight of the world
Lives in the space between

[Outro]
In the space between
In the space between
(The space between)
In the space between
(The space between)
In the space between

Streetlights hum like a bass drone.
You ever trace copper veins in the curb?
They stare back.
That’s tomorrow humming.

I ride for the long game—life on loan,
Guard each link in the chain I’m shown.
Once truth clicks, choices narrow down:
Build, don’t bleed; lift, don’t drown.
Awe’s got weight, keeps a man on track;
When the future’s in view, don’t stunt the stack.
Mind on the long game—simple math:
What keeps me breathing, I keep intact.

Blackout hit—block went mute,
No Wi-Fi, no fridge, no loop.
Orange sky from a blown-out fuse,
Whole hood felt the vein they never knew.
Mapped the threads: water, fiber, bread,
Every breath a team sport in my head.
Freedom ain’t solo, it’s system strong;
Treat the frame right, it carries you long.
I’m no saint, just sane with the math:
Short-term shine is a boomerang path.
See it once and the lens locks in:
Protect what protects you—begin.

Renter on Earth, month-to-month,
Pay dues in sweat, no front.
No sermon, just stance in light:
Do right, keep sight.

I ride for the long game—life on loan,
Guard each link in the chain I’m shown.
Once truth clicks, choices narrow down:
Build, don’t bleed; lift, don’t drown.
Awe’s got weight, keeps a man on track;
When the future’s in view, don’t stunt the stack.
Mind on the long game—simple math:
What keeps me breathing, I keep intact.

When tomorrow’s real, today’s a seed,
Every move votes on what will be.
Hustle shifts from grab-now greed
To quiet grind so the lines don’t bleed.
Long-view living self-selects moves:
You won’t torch the bridge that loops you.
Share the craft so the craft stays live,
Teach the code, mend the drive.
Tip your cap to the unseen crew—
They breathe you while unseen, it’s true.
Call it love or cold logic, same:
Guard the stack or fold the game.


Why we here? (Long game! Long game!)
How we steer? (Same frame! Same frame!)

I ride for the long game—life on loan,
Guard each link in the chain I’m shown.
Once truth clicks, choices narrow down:
Build, don’t bleed; lift, don’t drown.
Awe’s got weight, keeps a man on track;
When the future’s in view, don’t stunt the stack.
Mind on the long game—simple math:
What keeps me breathing, I keep intact.

Picture my block in 2083,
Kids rap where my footprints be.
If air still sweet and lights still hum,
They’ll know we kept the engine run.
Etch this code in the vinyl groove:
Respect the weave and the weave keeps you.
When I’m ash, may the cycle spin slick—
Signed and stamped: my brick.

I ride for the long game—life on loan,
Guard each link in the chain I’m shown.
Once truth clicks, choices narrow down:
Build, don’t bleed; lift, don’t drown.
Awe’s got weight, keeps a man on track;
When the future’s in view, don’t stunt the stack.
Mind on the long game—simple math:
What keeps me breathing, I keep intact.

Sight’s a blessing and a debt.
See the scaffold, own the check.
Long game—everybody’s verse. Peace.

[Intro]
You said... you said the formula was simple
n plus one equals

function of...

[Verse 1]
You walk through rooms where paint peels from the walls
Each layer underneath reveals another truth
I watch you trace the cracks with careful fingers
As if mapping territories of decay

[Pre-Chorus]
But what you don't understand
What you refuse to see
Is how the ground beneath shifts
With every breath you breathe

[Chorus]
Your survival depends on what remains
When everything else falls away
The foundation crumbles grain by grain
And still you think you'll stay

Substrate failing

Substrate failing

[Verse 2]
Remember when we built this house of cards
Each decision stacked upon the last mistake
Now hurricanes of consequence arrive
And blow away what we thought permanent

I told you then the structure couldn't hold
But you kept adding floors to reach the sky
Now standing in the rubble of your choice
You ask me why I didn't try to stop you

[Pre-Chorus]
But what you don't understand
What you refuse to see
Is how the ground beneath shifts
With every breath you breathe

[Chorus]
Your survival depends on what remains
When everything else falls away
The foundation crumbles grain by grain
And still you think you'll stay

Substrate failing

Substrate failing

[Bridge]
The equation was never about addition
It was always about subtraction
What gets taken away
What gets worn down
What gets forgotten
Until only the essential remains

[Final Chorus]
Your survival depends on what remains
When everything else falls away
The foundation crumbles grain by grain
And now you finally see
Substrate failing
Substrate failing
Substrate...

Look What You've Done (Acoustic Version)

Closer To The Moon Than By You ft. DJ Tycho

Verse 1
Late-shift lights hum at the corner store,
Plastic floors shine like a brittle smile.
He sets twelve cans of beer on the counter—no more,
Pays in silence, eyes fixed on the tile.
The clerk scans each tin with a hollow beep,
And I feel the tremor that he’s trying to keep
Somewhere deep, where the feedback sleeps,
Telling him he’s outside the line.

Pre-Chorus 1
There’s a chorus in his head that keeps on shouting “prove you’re fine,”
While the world just scrolls on past him like a fraying neon sign.

Chorus
So he drinks down the volume, lets the noise grow dim,
Twelve small tickets to mute the algorithm.
When the network won’t let you log in,
You pull the plug and drown the din.
But maybe all it takes to bend that line—
A simple “Hey, I see you,” offered in kind.

Verse 2
I’ve walked that aisle in a different skin,
Scanning shelves for a softer night,
Thinking if I could numb what’s echoing within,
I might outrun the lonely light.
’Cause when you stand at the edge of the human grid,
The pings come back like you never did—
A negative loop you can’t outbid,
So you medicate the static away.

Pre-Chorus 2
Every sip’s a tiny shutdown, every gulp a rubber band,
Pulling tight around the heartbreak no one else can understand.

Chorus
Yeah, he drinks down the volume, lets the noise grow dim,
Twelve small tickets to mute the algorithm.
When the network won’t let you log in,
You pull the plug and drown the din.
But maybe all it takes to bend that line—
One open face that meets his eyes in line.

Bridge
We don’t need to solve his maze tonight,
No grand rescue, no bright searchlight.
Just a nod that says, “You exist to me,”
Can loosen one loop in the circuitry.

(Soft instrumental — guitar breathes, organ swells and recedes.)

Final Chorus
’Cause he’s drinking down the volume, night after night,
Trying to quiet the code that says he’s not wired right.
But if we leave one small port open,
Let a little signal in—
Maybe the loop goes slack,
Maybe the tide rolls back,
And twelve cans won’t have to keep the world on spin.

Outro
Cash drawer closes, doors hiss wide—
I catch his eye, just nod, “Goodnight.”
A tired smile flickers, then he steps outside—
Maybe that’s enough to start the rewrite.

Twelve Cans (Lonely Loop) [free download]

[musical introduction]

[intro]
“Yo, listen up… nodes and edges, math and memories… you’re in the graph now.”

[rap]
Yo, picture me a church-kid,
Sunday starch on my collar,
prayers like pocket change—
I spent ’em without thinkin’.

But as the calendar flipped,
the ink in those pages started smearing;
absolute truth felt less like granite,
more like chalk in rain.

I crossed borders,
broke bread with Buddhists,
argued midnight with imams,
swapped jokes with rabbis—
each crew certain their compass aimed true.

Logic check: if their maps cancel out,
certainty’s a human side-effect,
not a cosmic guarantee.
That’s the mind hustlin’,
selling “I’m right” at every corner stand.

Still, I respect the hustle of community—
the choir harmonizin’, the muezzin callin’ dawn,
the temple bells keeping time.
Dedication like that is social glue,
and glue’s what keeps a city from crumbling.

[Break 1 – 4 bars instrumental]

Then the plot twist: network science.
Abstract math,
graphs on a screen,
but the vibe felt weirdly spiritual.

Dig this—every system you know can be drawn as nodes and edges.
Nodes are the nouns:
you, me, a neuron, a star.
Edges are the verbs:
phone calls, hydrogen bonds, gravity, gossip.
Break an edge with indifference—
you dim the circuit.
Strain it with anger—
wire snaps, sparks fly.

Feed it with love or trust—
bandwidth widens,
data and hope flow free.

That’s not poetry;
it’s adjacency matrices talking cold,
hard stats.

Now widen the lens:
cells talk to cells,
species trade in ecosystems,
planets orbit in gravitational choreography—
nested subnetworks all the way up.

[Break 1 – 4 bars instrumental]

Here’s the kicker:
complexity isn’t a magic add-on;
it emerges when enough nodes loop enough edges,
feedback hittin’ feedback till new patterns self-assemble.
Neural nets prove the point—
just layers of digital nodes pinging signals.
Give ’em reinforcement and time,
intelligence blooms like street art on a blank wall.
Kill the power,
the “genius” evaporates; the network was the mind all along.

So the math lays down commandments that rhyme with old scripture:
Strengthen the ties,
’cause node health equals edge health;
Diversity of links builds resilience;
Forgiveness rewires damaged lines cheaper than starting over.
Religion called it love,
karma, covenant—
same theorem,
different notation.

[Break 1 – 4 bars instrumental]

I ran from faith to formulas and found them orbiting the same sun:
Interdependence is the law;
isolation is the fine you pay for breaking it.
Whether you quote Paul or parse Python,
the verdict stands—
Keep the network alive,
or watch yourself flicker out with it.

That’s the gospel according to edges and nodes:
Collaborate, iterate, elevate.
Because everything that keeps you breathing is a line in somebody else’s graph,
And the smartest move any node can make is to guard the grid that guards us back.

And the smartest move any node can make is to guard the grid that guards us back

[Verse 1]  
Waves are crashing under my skin  
I’m lost at sea but I’m breathing in  
Your voice is salt in the summer air  
Every tide pulls me back to where you are  

[Pre-Chorus]  
Luna llena (full moon), light my way  
In your arms, I drift away  
Every heartbeat’s a siren call  
You’re the anchor that holds it all  

[Chorus]  
Ocean in my veins, I’m drowning in you  
Currents pull me deep, I don’t want to break through  
Mar azul (blue sea), take me far away  
Where the waves kiss the sky and we both stay  

[Verse 2]  
Shorelines fade but you’re always near  
Your touch is a lighthouse in the fear  
We’re the storm and the calm, all in one  
Two souls tangled like the moon and sun  

[Bridge]  
Corazón, no me dejes (heart, don’t leave me)  
Let the sea forever keep me  
Every wave, every dream we’ve made  
In your ocean, I’ll always stay  

Ocean in My Veins
