[Intro – crackling old PA system, grainy broadcast]
“This is Arkship Genesis. Year 001.
Destination: Proxima Centauri. Estimated arrival: 327 years.
Welcome aboard... and good luck.”

[Verse 1 – The First Generation (The Dreamers)]
We left Earth burnin’ in a corporate fire,
Chased hope past Mars on a fusion wire.
Frozen seeds in cryo tanks,
Blueprints drawn on memory banks.

They told us we were chosen—saviors in chrome,
A million miles deep with no way home.
Built this ark with ambition and steel,
Bet the species on a pipe dream that don’t feel real.

[Hook – whispered voices, layered and panned]
Born in motion, trapped in fate,
No stars, just walls—we suffocate.
You call it mission, we call it cage,
Your dream’s our prison, your map’s our rage.

[Verse 2 – The Second Generation (The Questioners)]
We grew in gravity simulators, fed on myths,
Our bedtime stories? Failed Earth and loyalty shifts.
School taught math and reverence,
But we hacked the logs, found negligence.

We ain’t pilgrims—we inmates in drift,
Ghosts of a planet no one can fix.
Why believe in a star we’ll never touch?
They sold forever for a feel-good crutch.

[Bridge – glitchy voice modulation, tension rising]
[Voice 1:] “We never asked.”
[Voice 2:] “This isn’t survival—it’s exile.”
[Voice 3:] “Reboot the nav. Turn around.”
[Voice 4:] “Or take command.”

[Verse 3 – The Third Generation (The Uprising)]
We cracked the vaults and the old AI,
Rewrote the course with a rebel eye.
Sabotage in hydroponic bays,
Fists raised in artificial days.

Your mission logs lie, your data’s dead,
We ain’t your legacy—we're ghosts misled.
Call it mutiny, call it fate,
We’ll burn this ship before we recreate.

[Final Hook – full chorus, intense and layered]
Born in motion, trapped in fate,
No stars, just walls—we suffocate.
You call it mission, we call it cage,
Your dream’s our prison, your map’s our rage.

So we rise, so we break—
Let the children choose what path they take.
From the void, we now create…
Starborn, yes—but we write our fate.

[Outro – silence, then soft breathing, distant metal creaking]
[PA system voice, distorted]:
“Navigation override… trajectory: unknown.”

Starborn and Shackled
