[Verse 1]
Two legends prowling through the quantum maze
Shor's factoring giants in polynomial days
While Grover's searching through the database
Square root advantage, that's his saving grace
RSA crumbles when the factors fall
But symmetric keys still stand tall
Exponential versus quadratic speed
Different weapons for a different need
[Chorus]
Shor breaks the locks, Grover finds the key
Polynomial time versus square root spree
Remember the names, remember the game
Quantum algorithms ain't playing the same
Shor breaks the locks, Grover finds the key
Asymmetric death, symmetric's still free
[Verse 2]
Physical qubits shake and drift away
Noise corruption every microsecond's stay
Logical qubits built from many small
Error correction catching every fall
Surface codes weaving protection tight
Syndrome detection keeping data right
Superconducting, trapped ion, photonic too
Different hardware, same quantum breakthrough
[Chorus]
Shor breaks the locks, Grover finds the key
Polynomial time versus square root spree
Remember the names, remember the game
Quantum algorithms ain't playing the same
Shor breaks the locks, Grover finds the key
Asymmetric death, symmetric's still free
[Bridge]
Lattice mathematics crystalline and strong
Module learning keeps the secrets long
ML-KEM for key exchange protocol
ML-DSA when signatures must not fall
Learning with errors, shortest vector quest
Post-quantum crypto passing every test
[Verse 3]
Migration checklist, check it twice
TLS one-three rolling quantum dice
OpenSSH ten with quantum-safe design
AES-256 still holding the line
Hybrid solutions bridging old and new
Classical backup when the quantum's through
[Outro]
Moscow's theorem counts the years remaining
Harvest now decrypt later, data's waning
Y2Q approaches like a digital storm
Two algorithms leading the transform
