Milo Nova - Codec Memories Lyrics

[Intro]
Static memories of who you used to be
Trapped in bits and fragments, set me free

[Verse 1]
Found your voice inside a hard drive grave
Young and wild, before you learned to behave
Spittin' bars in warehouses, high off life
Now you're trapped in meetings with your corporate wife
Damn, I barely recognize your face
In these conference rooms, such a different space
Downloaded the past, it hit me like a wave
When did all your demons learn to behave?

[Chorus]
Digital father, frozen in time
Your ghost keeps rappin' through these files of mine
I'm sippin' lean, tryna feel what you felt
When revolution wasn't cards you were dealt
(When revolution wasn't cards you were dealt)

[Verse 2]
Suit and tie suffocating day by day
While your younger self still knows how to rage
Found these fragments of a different man
Before the system had you in its hands
F*ck these privileges you gave to me
I'd trade it all to set your spirit free
Every glitch and error tells me more
'Bout the rebel that you were before

[Chorus]
Digital father, frozen in time
Your ghost keeps rappin' through these files of mine
I'm sippin' lean, tryna feel what you felt
When revolution wasn't cards you were dealt

[Outro]
Static memories of who you used to be
Dad, I wish you'd stayed wild and free
