Hook (Chorus)

He had lightning in his hands, no wires in the sky,

Turned the current to a river made the whole world drive.

From the falls to the cities, let the AC fly,

Now every single light that you see at night is his design.

Spin that field, let the motor dance, that’s Tesla.

Coils sing blue when the sparks say “yes, sir.”

Took Niagara, bottled up that pressure,

Now the grid hums low like a hidden successor.

Verse 1 – AC Dreams

He said “why run straight when you can alternate,”

Built a polyphase dream, made the volts rotate.

Induction motor on the bench, watch the rotor levitate,

Edison threw shade, but the future didn’t hesitate.

Westinghouse called, put the patents in play,

From the lab to the dam where the big waves spray.

Niagara Falls turned to power that day,

First hydro plant humming in a bright new way.

Electric world tour, he lit up the fair,

Chicago night glowing with the sparks in the air.

Neon, fluoro, made the glass tubes flare,

Whole crowd froze up just to stand and stare.

Pre‑Chorus – World on Wires

From the lab in the dark where the coils all glow,

To a globe on a wire where the currents flow.

He could see one grid where the whole world’s plugged,

While they still fought flames on a carbon plug.

Hook

He had lightning in his hands, no wires in the sky,

Turned the current to a river made the whole world drive.

From the falls to the cities, let the AC fly,

Now every single light that you see at night is his design.

Spin that field, let the motor dance, that’s Tesla.

Coils sing blue when the sparks say “yes, sir.”

Dreamed one tower talking to the whole earth’s pressure,

Still feel that hum in the lines, that’s Tesla.

Verse 2 – Coils & Wireless

Built a coil, let the voltage climb,

High‑freq waves cut through space and time.

Purple arcs wrote his name in the air,

Man‑made lightning like he owned the storm there.

Colorado nights, 200 lamps glow,

No wires in the field, but they all said “woah.”

Stationary waves made the whole earth show,

Turn the planet to a circuit, let the resonance grow.

Wardenclyffe raised like a towered wish,

World wireless, send power through the ground and the mist.

Money ran dry, so the dream got missed,

But every Wi‑Fi ping still sounds like this.

Rap Bridge – Remote Control Flow

Radio boat in the Garden, first remote on the wave,

Little hull in the pool, big shock to the age.

They thought “magic,” he called it “radio slave,”

Now every drone, every click, just a child of that page.

X‑ray beams in the lab, saw bones through skin,

Warned “take care” when the rays cut in.

Bladeless turbine with the discs that spin,

Even now engineers still dig that spin.

Pre‑Chorus 2 – Ahead of His Time

He saw futures they could not read,

Talking global grid, wireless speed.

While the world cashed in on a smaller need,

He stayed tuned to a higher frequency.

Final Hook (Big)

He had lightning in his hands, no wires in the sky,

Turned the current to a river made the whole world drive.

From the falls to the cities, let the AC fly,

Now every single light that you see at night is his design.

Spin that field, let the motor dance, that’s Tesla.

Coils sing blue when the sparks say “yes, sir.”

Write his name in the glow on your desk, that’s Tesla,

Every silent hum in the wall, that’s Tesla.
