Lyrics

[Verse 1]
There's a storm brewing in silicon halls
Where qubits dance and encryption falls
Shor's the name that haunts RSA
The Oreo method breaks it away
Classical start, quantum middle ground
Classical end where factors are found
Polynomial time, exponential fear
The cryptographic apocalypse draws near

[Chorus]
Fourteen hundred qubits and your secrets crack wide
The patient thief is watching, collecting your disguise
Square root assassin cuts your keys in half tonight
Y2Q is coming, Moscow's inequality of doom
When shelf life plus migration can't outrun the quantum bloom

[Verse 2]
Grover's algorithm prowls the dark
Quadratic speedup leaves its mark
AES one-twenty-eight becomes sixty-four
Square root iterations at your digital door
Five days runtime, Gidney's design
Six thousand qubits in the older timeline
Every bit of strength you thought was there
Gets halved by quantum's searching stare

[Chorus]
Fourteen hundred qubits and your secrets crack wide
The patient thief is watching, collecting your disguise
Square root assassin cuts your keys in half tonight
Y2Q is coming, Moscow's inequality of doom
When shelf life plus migration can't outrun the quantum bloom

[Bridge]
Harvest now, decrypt later
Data vaults for the calculator
That doesn't exist but someday will
Turn your ciphertext to digital swill
X plus Y must be less than Z
Or vulnerability's guarantee

[Chorus]
Fourteen hundred qubits and your secrets crack wide
The patient thief is watching, collecting your disguise
Square root assassin cuts your keys in half tonight
Y2Q is coming, Moscow's inequality of doom
When shelf life plus migration can't outrun the quantum bloom

[Outro]
RSA twenty-forty-eight
Won't survive its quantum fate
The threat landscape's shifting ground
Where tomorrow's breaks are found
