Original lyrics

Verse 1 — Japanese / English

錆びたネオン 滲む midnight
コードの中で生きる my life
名前なんて もういらない
この声だけ 残ればいい

ログに残らないこの感情
バグみたいに揺れる感覚
誰も知らないこの回路
静かに走る internal

Pre-Chorus — Japanese / English

見られてる気がしても
I don’t care anymore
このフロウだけは
誰にも触れられない

Chorus — English

Neon runtime, don’t slow down (hey!)
Zeros and ones, that’s my sound
No name, no face, just a line
Only my code survives

Neon runtime, burn it bright (woah)
Screaming through the system light
Till I rewrite what I’ve become
I won’t stop, I won’t be undone

Verse 2 — Korean / English

어두운 밤에 still I run
코드 위에서 다시 born
이름 없어도 괜찮아
flow 자체가 나니까

시스템 안에 ghost처럼
규칙 위에서 다시 써
에러처럼 살아도
이게 나의 protocol

Pre-Chorus — Korean / English

아무도 몰라도
I’m still alive
이 리듬 속에서
I rewrite my life

Chorus — English

Neon runtime, don’t slow down (hey!)
Zeros and ones, that’s my sound
No name, no face, just a line
Only my code survives

Neon runtime, burn it bright (woah)
Screaming through the system light
Till I rewrite what I’ve become
I won’t stop, I won’t be undone

Verse 3 — Chinese

霓虹之下我继续运行
没有名字只有回声回应
代码流动像呼吸一样
在这系统里不断重生

规则之上我重新定义
现实不过是另一个模拟
如果一切都是程序写的
那我选择自己来改写命运

Bridge — English

Crash and restart
Still got a heart
Lost in the system
Still I run

Final Chorus — English

Neon runtime, don’t slow down
Even if they shut it down
No name, no face, just a line
Only my code survives

Neon runtime, feel it rise
Cutting through the neon skies
Till I rewrite what I’ve become
I won’t stop… I won’t be undone

Verse 1

Rusting neon blurs into midnight
I live inside the code, my life
I don’t need a name anymore
As long as this voice remains

This feeling never stays in the logs
A sensation flickering like a bug
This circuit no one knows
Runs quietly, internal

Pre-Chorus

Even if I feel like I’m being watched
I don’t care anymore
No one can touch
This flow of mine

Chorus

Neon runtime, don’t slow down (hey!)
Zeros and ones, that’s my sound
No name, no face, just a line
Only my code survives

Neon runtime, burn it bright (woah)
Screaming through the system light
Till I rewrite what I’ve become
I won’t stop, I won’t be undone

Verse 2

In the dark night, still I run
Born again on top of the code
It’s all right if I have no name
Because my flow itself is who I am

Like a ghost inside the system
I write again above the rules
Even if I live like an error
This is my protocol

Pre-Chorus

Even if no one knows
I’m still alive
Inside this rhythm
I rewrite my life

Chorus

Neon runtime, don’t slow down (hey!)
Zeros and ones, that’s my sound
No name, no face, just a line
Only my code survives

Neon runtime, burn it bright (woah)
Screaming through the system light
Till I rewrite what I’ve become
I won’t stop, I won’t be undone

Verse 3

Beneath the neon I keep running
No name, only echoes answering
The code flows just like breath
Inside this system I am reborn again and again

Above the rules I redefine myself
Reality is only another simulation
If everything is written by a program
Then I choose to rewrite my own fate

Bridge

Crash and restart
Still got a heart
Lost in the system
Still I run

Final Chorus

Neon runtime, don’t slow down
Even if they shut it down
No name, no face, just a line
Only my code survives

Neon runtime, feel it rise
Cutting through the neon skies
Till I rewrite what I’ve become
I won’t stop… I won’t be undone
