Intro · spoken, choir rising
Dollar sign, exit. Layer one. Layer won. We taught the engine how to run. Now give it something worth running for.
Verse 1
They built a machine that could swallow the sun, Turn a second into seconds till the zeros outrun. Hands on the clock, eyes glued to the climb, Everybody buying little pieces of time. But a number on a screen can't keep a child warm, Can't hold a hand steady when the night turns storm. Money moves where it believes there's more— So build a better reason for it knocking at the door. What if getting ahead meant opening a way? What if making a living made somebody's day? Not a promise in a pitch, not a halo on a trade— Show me who got stronger from the thing we made.
Pre-chorus
Don't fight the river. Change where it runs. Give the engine a heart. Give ambition someone. Put a name to the need. Put the proof in the light. Make the work worth doing. Make the doing pay right.
Chorus
$EXIT— The final layer, layer won. More for you means more for me. Let the whole world sing it, let it run. Make abundance profitable. Make a better life the prize. If our upside lifts each other, That's a future worth the rise. $EXIT— Can you feel what we've begun? We're still building, still becoming. Layer one to layer won.
Post-chorus · crowd / choir
More for you. More for me. More of what we need to be. Build it. Prove it. Pass it on. Layer one. Layer won.
Verse 2
The code gets cheap but the courage doesn't, You can automate a plan; you can't assume they love it. A thousand perfect logos, no one at the door— It takes a human heart to know what all of this is for. I want the lights on, I want the rent low, I want the kid who never got a chance to get a go. Pay the hands that made it, let the neighbors see, Let the record say the difference wasn't make-believe. No crown for buying louder, no truth sold by the pound, Let the people who were helped have a voice in what we found. Somebody tells the story; somebody checks the claim. Somebody gets their life back. That's the point of the game.
Pre-chorus 2
Don't fight ambition. Give ambition aim. Let a better kind of winning Put a fire in the frame. Make the care real. Make the trust earned. Give the world a little more Than the world gave in return.
Chorus · repeat
$EXIT— The final layer, layer won. More for you means more for me. Let the whole world sing it, let it run. Make abundance profitable. Make a better life the prize. If our upside lifts each other, That's a future worth the rise.
Bridge · spoken over half-time
The old question was: How much can I keep? Here's another: What can we unlock? Give the builders a living. Give the doubters a voice. Give the people getting helped A real say and a choice. An engine doesn't love us. We decide what it serves. The future isn't finished. It's a future we can earn.
Drop · call and response
Make abundance profitable. (Show me what changed.) Make abundance profitable. (Put a heart in the game.) Make abundance profitable. (Let the good work pay.) More for you. More for me. (We can build it that way.)
Final chorus · full choir
$EXIT— The final layer, layer won. Not because the work is over— Because we know what we're working on. Make abundance profitable. Make a better life the prize. Let the power we created Meet the people in our lives. $EXIT— Put your hands into the sun. More for you means more for me. Layer one to layer won.
Outro
Dollar sign, exit. More for you. More for me. The way out was a way through. Give the machine Something worth optimizing.
