Main Frame

Track 10 of Whole Meal

[ Lyrics ]

I run the system now — yeah, I run the system now.

No more drafts, no more second-guessing late,
scrapped the script I wrote when I didn't feel safe.
Used to need a chorus just to know my name,
now I hum my power just to set the pace.
Signed the lease, bought the lens, lit my own scene,
no hand-me-down approval, no ghost in between.
My voice, my call, my final say,
every move I make, I make it stay.

Used to wait for someone to turn my light on,
now I’m coding dawn in the dead of night wrong.
No more user tags, no guest access in my soul —
I’m the admin, baby, I hold the scroll.

I run the system now — yeah, I run it, I own it,
every beat, every line, every thought that I loan it.
I run the system now — no reboot, no glitch,
my worth ain't up for vote, it’s a firewall I stitch.

Director’s chair, but I’m still in frame,
did the hair, did the look, lit the flame.
No assistant for my healing, no manager for my truth,
I birthed the vision, now I proof.
Wrote the song that broke me, then wrote the one that built me,
now the world leans in like they forgot to trust me.
But I don’t need the spotlight — I emit it,
my peace is loud, and you can’t interrupt it.

No more love in beta mode, no more art on hold,
every password changed, every story retold.
Not a character — I’m the whole damn scene,
main frame humming where the cracks had been.

Used to outsource my glow,
let distractions rewrite the code.
Now I debug my own desire,
no more begging for the fire.

I run the system now — yeah, I run it, I own it,
every heartbeat, every silence, every truth I’ve known it.
I run the system now — no guest list, no flaws,
I’m not perfect — I’m sovereign, and that’s the goddamn law.
I run it — I run it — 
I run it — I run it — 

Main frame… main frame…

I run it.
