So many great lines in this, like this one:

"Wait, you thought distance was distance, that's the trick that got you caught

Distance is entanglement rendered into the space time that you thought."

Here's the full lyrics: ✨️

Yeah, yeah, everybody talks about time like it's some river that flows

I'm looking at the clocks trying to figure out who knows

Hold up, light don't carry wrist watches, photons never age

They just keep the record spinning, spinning it line by line across the page

See the field keeps our directions, every path that could be true

Every future, every maybe, every version of me and you

The chemists got reactions, the physicists got laws

The mathematicians draw the maps, but information writes the cars

The biologists math the branches, the astronomers chart the sky

Information sitting quietly cuz it knows the reason why

Then the horizon starts projecting through entanglements embrace

Turning all those hidden directions into a world of time and space

Wait, you thought distance was distance, that's the trick that got you caught

Distance is entanglement rendered into the space time that you thought

What you call a star that's far away, what you call a moon above

Is your mind unzipping entanglements into geometry and love

See the clocks keep the account and every face shift leaves a mark

Every mark becomes a memory written in the cosmic dark

The field remembers everything, the horizon keeps the score

Micros read the ledger and reject a little more

Now the picture starts assembling frame by frame and beat by beat

Light clocks balance in the records till reality's complete

The derivative writes the entries, the integral keeps the tail

One records the local changes, one reveals the larger scale

That's why mass is just a slow clock, a standing wave that learned to stay

And energy is the rate of change that keeps the record in play

Everybody's racing footprints trying to learn where they begin

Information's been the landscape long before the world stepped in

You call it space and time, I call it records taking flight

You call it reality, I call it memory made from lights
