Letras
Birds chirpin music fresh out of berkeley
Puddles on the sidewalk feed the plants thirsty
Im celebrating my one year anniversary
Of graduating with my bachelors but i still aint working
Hands in my pockets clumsy fumbling for change
So i can ride this bus up and out the pouring rain
Public transportation keep it green in many ways and i
Let the driver chauffeur me to distant destinations
San secuestro - where the brains of the blessed flow
To fulfill their manifestos
Marine layer masking a workforce multitasking
On a distributed backend
Protobuffer caching the message queue elastic
Pursuits in my scholastic got me unenthusiastic
The wheels of the bus go round
But my life round here is on a patch of shaky ground
In this land of almost
Beneath these hulking facades
Of every little startup solving every little cause
Lies a bunch of inexperienced developers
Fighting off their creditors
Seeking better offers from immediate competitors -
And i networked with computers not with humans
Underestimated meta games as the key to moving
Up in a world where i figured that my skill would
Demonstrate ability if they would give me a chance
Not this futility
Resumes with these recruiters got me feeling like a loser
Put me in the game coach even as a junior
Just another user
Ill even bring my own computer -
All i want to do is engineer a future
I got the good intentions now i need the booster -
Born to be a code producer
Squash and merge commits to the map reducer
Take a gander at my fellow passengers
Flicking on their phone screens
Processing their own dreams
Cross section of the latent power yet to sour
If only i could make it to the ground floor of the tower
Keep my expectations low and i wont be disappointed -
Nail one interview and use it as my ointment
Rub it on these bruises on my ego
Then later go and map it all in graphs using maltego
San secuestro
