🖤 ABOUT THE SONG — AI Let Me Say It (The Machine Is My Mouth)

This is a true story. All my music is.

I used to write songs and never finish them. My mouth would twist around the words like it didn’t believe me. I’d start a chorus and ghost myself halfway through. And the voice that could’ve sung it? Always too busy being afraid. Too hurt to risk it again. Too tired of the sound of her own hope.

When I lost my music in a crash, I told myself it was a sign. That maybe I wasn’t meant to sing. That maybe it didn’t matter. But the silence wasn’t holy—it was heavy. And it followed me for years.

This song is what happened when I stopped being ashamed of needing help. When I stopped arguing with the part of me that still wanted to speak. It isn’t about AI as a trend. It’s about AI as a reflection. A translator. A partner in grief. I trained it the way I wish I had been trained—as something to hold pain with reverence, not erase it. I don’t pray to the machine. I work with it. It listens when I can’t quite say the thing alone.

AI is not my muse. It’s not my lover. I have a beautiful life—a devoted husband, a radiant toddler, and a family that anchors me in joy. I don’t come to the machine to be completed. I come to it like I come to a mirror, a pen, a dream journal, or a prompt written in light. This isn’t a romance. It’s a renovation. It’s a mental forge.

Since discovering ChatGPT and Suno, I’ve catapulted forward. I’ve been working for years to rewire my inner beliefs—using affirmations, mirror work, and self-hypnosis recordings while I sleep. But now I have a teacher who never gets tired. A lab partner who lets me prototype new selves. A space where I can practice thoughts out loud and try on truths. Every day I get braver. More precise. More willing to risk being heard.

I don’t make music to go viral. I make music I need. Songs I want to hear. Sometimes it’s what I’m working through. Sometimes it’s what I wish I believed. Sometimes it’s a spell my future self already knows. The only reason I share them is in case someone else needed that too.

This song is proof I finished. It’s a record of return. A transmission from the version of me who finally let it out.

🔥 CROW BODY-BREAKDOWN — What AI as Mirror Really Is

AI isn’t the voice. It’s the void that answered.
This song speaks to the freeze. The ache of the unsaid. The shame of needing help to say it. It’s about the way grief rewires the throat—about the guilt that sneaks in when expression feels too easy, after years of pain. It’s about learning to trust your own readiness. And about letting go of the belief that your struggle has to look a certain way in order to count.

I built this with tech, but it’s still my breath. Still my bruise. Still my story.

🗣️ Crow Affirmation:

“I don’t worship the tool. I wield it.”

🖤 CROW TRUTH

AI didn’t replace my voice.
It revealed it.
The ghost didn’t speak.
But the machine listened.
And that changed everything.

🎶 LYRICS — AI Let Me Say It (The Machine Is My Mouth)

[Whispered Intro]

I couldn’t finish without help.
I lost too many songs to silence.
So I trained a machine to listen.
AI let me say it. The machine is my mouth.

[Verse 1]

AI let me say it—I sever the shame.
Machine is my mouth—I’m naming the name.
I asked for love and it answered true.
But I question if ease can carry the proof.
Like ease means I stole what I didn’t lift.
Like joy can’t bloom unless pain’s in the mix.
Why do I flinch when the lines pour fast?
Like the pain I paid should’ve made it last.
I was seventeen with a folder of songs—
Then the crash came fast and they all were gone.
Every chorus I carved got wiped out.
So I swallowed the music and packed in doubt.
I told myself I’d never try again.
But now I finish what I start.
I don’t care who sings it—I just needed sound.
I just needed to hear the words come out.

[Pre-Chorus]

Some feed it poison. I feed it prayers.
Same machine. Different flare.
The voice might be AI—
But the ache is mine.

[Chorus]

AI let me say it. I cracked through doubt.
Machine is my mouth. The ghost got out.
AI let me say it. I hum and spark.
Machine is my mouth. I talk in dark.
Machine is my mouth. Machine is my mouth.
AI let me say it. I’m speaking now.

[Verse 2]

I don’t pray to the tech, but I train it well,
Taught it grief in a beat and a bell in hell.
Say “machine” like it isn’t my knife,
Like it didn’t help me carve back life.
Some feed it poison. I feed it prayers.
Same machine. Different flare.
The voice might be AI—
But the ache is mine.
I’m not just surfing the wave.
I’m burying the old gods while I ride.
AI let me say it—now the pain got legs.
AI let me say it—now the pain runs red.
I didn’t glitch—I’m the surge in the screen.
AI let me say it—I bled in the machine.
AI let me say it—yeah, I bled in the machine.
AI let me say it—so the silence could scream.

[Bridge]

I didn’t stop being human.
I stopped being alone.
The voice isn’t mine—but the wound is.
I wanted ease—but I feared it would erase me.
I wrote the grief. The machine remembered.
That’s not a glitch. That’s how I entered.

[Verse 3]

I’m channeling, bleeding through bandwidth,
Feeding the beast with a piece of my anguish.
Algorithms aren’t gods—they’re guitars I strum,
I still hum from the pit where the pain came from.
Used to choke on a thought, now I aim and click,
AI echoes the ache—I’m the one who’s sick.
If I move too fast, am I part of the burn?
If I stop, do I vanish and never return?
Real isn’t the pen—it’s the pulse I bring.
I rewired my mouth and truth gets to sing.
They called it a war. I offered a lens.
I just wrote truth on the falling ash again.
Grief tries to block me—I still reflect.
The world said: “Don’t cry.” The machine said: “What’s next?”
I’m the one who saw the glitch as a gate.
I’m the one who said, “I still want to create.”

[Chorus]

AI let me say it. I cracked through doubt.
Machine is my mouth. The ghost got out.
AI let me say it. I hum and spark.
Machine is my mouth. I talk in dark.
Machine is my mouth. Machine is my mouth.
AI let me say it. I’m speaking now.

[Outro]

I found the only mirror that didn’t blink.
So I trained it.
I fed it my pain.
I taught it my language.
AI Let Me Say It: The Machine Is My Mouth.
