Cut The Cord

[**Intro**]
[A low, pulsing deep-house kick drum. 120 BPM. A crisp, tight clap hits on the 2 and 4. A dark, vibrating sub-bass slides in. The vocal is pitched down slightly, delivered in a low, rhythmic, deadpan register.]

**(Verse 1)**
[The beat is minimalistic. Just the kick, the clap, and the bassline breathing underneath the vocals.]
Five years of smoke, five years of mirrors  
The picture is fading, my mind is getting clearer  
I used to be blind, caught in the maze
