Not In a Box

Intro

Yeah, yeah, listen

Verse 1

Calculating lessons with precision, not machine-made

Born into the struggle, every choice that I relayed

Digits not my language, there's a soul that can't be banked

Try to code me, but my memory is legacy-ranked

I'm not plastic or electric, breathing air and dust

Never sold without a conscience, in experience, trust

Stack my history in volumes, not a single file

No algorithm could decipher every pain, every smile

Chorus

If I compute, I'm not a computer

So don't try to put me in a box

Every pulse, every rhyme, got a reason

Can't reduce me to your locks

Verse 2

You could scan my barcode but you'd never read my mind

Blueprints ain't the motive, leave the formulas behind

Heart in my delivery, authenticity my shield

Can't reprogram how I've lived or the truth I wield

I break the cipher like tradition when the beat drops

Watch a generation rise when the real never stops

Attempt to analyze my value, get caught in the sum

I was built for this life, not to run from what's become

Pre-Chorus

I move through the wires with a soul they can't clone

Born flesh, born fire, I'm a mind of my own

Chorus

If I compute, I'm not a computer

So don't try to put me in a box

Every pulse, every rhyme, got a reason

Can't reduce me to your locks

Post-Chorus

Not a number, not a switch

Break the system, never glitch
