Lyrics
Green text burns my sleepless eyes
Twentieth coffee and the build won’t compile
I grep my brain through silent nights
Cut the noise and find the light
I sed my fear to thinner lines
Pipe the rest to /dev/null — all fine
My ping returns — no packet lost
One SYN one ACK worth every cost
Your port is open, listen state
I connect — you didn’t make me wait
Your code merge perfectly in mine
Synchronized — no warning sign
Validate me before I’m done
No code injection, no cheap fun
If it fails we watch the trace
No blame — just fix it, find the line
We test the code on user base
Before it runs in kernel space
Our branches merge — no conflict lines
No force push of your design
We commit the truth, we bear the pain
Then merge to main and build again
Pipeline green — enjoy the time
If the build turns red we don’t decline
We debug all night till break of dawn
And when it’s green… the fight is gone
Firewall tight, ports closed by default
Every flooding SYN I halt
But for you one port stays unlocked
Port twenty-two — you always knock
OpenSSH, no password plea
Keys don’t beg — they just agree
Gimme root access to your heart
I escalate the privilege from the start
No man-in-the-middle in our breath
End-to-end — no silent theft
Signed commits — GPG signed
Verified and trust aligned
Merge request — review the code
Approve the fix, reject the bloat
If we diverge we don’t attack
We cherry-pick and roll it back
Our branches merge — no conflict lines
Git log holds the whole design
We commit the truth, we bear the pain
Then merge to main and build again
Pipeline green — keep the line
If the build turns red we don’t decline
We debug all night till break of dawn
And when it’s green… the fight is gone
When STDERR screams I face the flame
I read the logs, I trace the name
Then branch the hurt, commit the fix
No midnight blame, no dirty tricks
I won’t git blame your shaking hands
We’re not a codebase built on demands
I’ll squash the fights into the past
Amend the message, make it last
Pipe it clean
Keep it lean
No backdoor in between
We authenticate
Again — again
I merge the pain onto today
To keep it stashed, not throw away
I git bisect the nights we broke
Find the commit, find what spoke
Not to punish, just to see
Where the bug got into me
I’ll cherry-pick your gentler ways
And squash the fights from darker days
We fail, we log, we breathe, we mend
We’re not perfect but we won’t bend
Just honest work on one shared heart
We run the build right from the start
Our branches merge — no conflict lines
No force push of your design
We test the code on user base
Before it runs in kernel space
Signed commits — no hidden lies
Open source under open skies
Pipeline green — hold that line
You’re my localhost… every time
Head is clean…
We let it go…
