[Verse]

The meeting starts at nine

But the bots are logged in first

Taking notes on nothing yet

Just waiting for the words

We write the perfect email

For machines to summarize

And somewhere in the pipeline

The actual meaning dies

[Verse 2]

My CV got rejected

By an algorithm's scan

It was written by an AI

For another AI's plan

We're building content pipelines

From the prompt straight to post

While the thing that made us human

Becomes a digital ghost

[Chorus]

But I still remember

The coffee and the dawn

The mentor who believed in me

When I had nothing going on

AI can write the story

But it can't feel the cost

Technology is brilliant

But without us, we're lost

AI is great But humans are everything

[Verse 3]

There's a student at the Bay

Who stops me on the street

Says he still remembers

That one slide about the fleet

Of fish that looked like whales

And what it meant to build

Those moments can't be coded

Can't be automated still

[Bridge]

I walk along the coast at dawn

Where cargo ships go by

And talk my way through tangled thoughts

Beneath the open sky

No app can give you

What a random walk can bring

The silence and the movement

And the space to think

[Chorus]

'Cause I still remember

The coffee and the dawn

The mentor who believed in me

When I had nothing going on

AI can write the story

But it can't feel the cost

Technology is brilliant

But without us, we're lost

AI is great But humans are everything

[Outro]

So when the bots are typing

And the feeds are being fed

I'll take the longer path

The human one instead
