[Intro – crooner whisper, static crackle]
Her hand moves, but you never see,
The Syndicate’s touch, controlling me.
[Verse 1 – slow rap, deep and dark]
Deals gone bad, streets gone cold,
Every promise bought, every secret sold.
Kaelith smiles, but it’s not his game,
Every move whispers the Queen’s name.
Shadow markets, contracts signed,
Every heartbeat chained in time.
Courier boy just a pawn in the plan,
Living in the grip of the Syndicate’s hand.
[Pre-Chorus – glitch echo, layered voices]
Her reach in the wires, her eyes in the screens,
Every corner haunted by the things she means.
No safe alley, no quiet land,
Everyone answers to the Syndicate’s hand.
[Chorus – cinematic darkwave swell]
The Syndicate’s hand — no escape, no choice,
Her will in the static, her law in the voice.
Monsters obey, shadows command,
The city is broken by the Syndicate’s hand.
[Verse 2 – rap, steadier but tense]
I hear her name in a whisper tone,
Nyra sings it when she’s alone.
Dr. Vox spoke, said “don’t resist,”
But every code she writes exists.
She builds monsters out of light and bone,
She builds empires all her own.
Courier beat can’t understand,
Drowning in the grip of the Syndicate’s hand.
[Bridge – crooner over orchestral swells]
She don’t need to bleed, she don’t need to fight,
Her shadow rules the endless night.
Even Kaelith kneels where he stands,
Caught forever in the Syndicate’s hand.
[Chorus – extended, glitch repeats]
The Syndicate’s hand — no escape, no choice,
Her will in the static, her law in the voice.
Monsters obey, shadows command,
The city is broken by the Syndicate’s hand.
[Outro – whispered distortion]
(Hand in the static… hand in the static…)
Her will… controls… all.
