Rhyme & Ruin from Fractured Echoes by Rhymenem
This track is pure sonic eruption. Imagine your thoughts spiraling out of control; that's the vibe here. The beat hits frantic, mirroring Jay's power going haywire and tearing up his neighborhood. Synths glitch and scream as the track builds, like reality itself fracturing. It’s meant to feel claustrophobic, like the walls are closing in, mirroring Jay's anxiety consuming him. Listen for the point where it all just breaks down into noise – that’s the sound of everything collapsing. It’s chaos, but there’s a raw energy in it too, a twisted kind of release. This is what losing control sounds like.

Lyrics
Mind's overflowin', can't keep it all in
World starts to wobble, where do I begin
Spit a quick verse, the streetlights start to bend
Bricks rearrange now, this chaos has no end
Tried to say sorry, the ground begins to crack
My own damn voice now, there is no turnin' back
Feel the surge rising, can't hold it inside
Every word spoken, nowhere left to hide
This ain't what I wanted, this ain't what I planned
Power's exploding right out of my hand
Rhyme and ruin, the city's fallin' down
My fractured flow now, all over this town
Words like weapons, tearin' through the air
This ain't control now, this is my despair (oh no)
People are screamin', pointin' up at the sky
Buildings are shiftin', I don't know the reason why
Every breath taken, the rhythm gets more crazed
Trapped in this moment, utterly dazed (so dazed)
Rhyme and ruin, the city's fallin' down
My fractured flow now, all over this town
Words like weapons, tearin' through the air
This ain't control now, this is my despair (can't stop)
See the destruction, feel the awful weight
My anxiety's bleedin', sealin' their fate
Gotta find the center, gotta find my peace
Before this whole world will cease (it will cease)
Rhyme and ruin, the city's fallin' down
My fractured flow now, all over this town
Words like weapons, tearin' through the air
This ain't control now, this is my despair (it's gone)
Fractured... (echo)
Ruin... (fade out)
