War below. No rank. No name. Nowhere left to go. Then the sky broke open, and steel came falling through. I thought I needed a weapon. What I found was you. I woke beneath a burning sky, steel rain falling from above, no prophecy, no chosen blood, just orders, fear, and trust. A rifle shaking in my hands, a battlefield I never knew, then through the fire a giant fell — and I found you. Cold metal voice, machine-made heart, numbers where a soul should be, but somewhere in the smoke and sparks you learned to fight beside me. I was nobody when this began, just one more soldier in the line. You called me Pilot. And I became one. Through broken cities, through IMC fire, through walls we ran while the whole world burned. You carried the weight. I carried the gun. Two bodies. One mission. PROTOCOL THREE — PROTECT THE PILOT. When the sky comes down, when the engines die, stand between me and the fire. PROTOCOL THREE — NEVER ABANDON. If the mission takes everything, if there's no way home — I know you'll still be there. Machine and man, steel and bone, we fought like neither stood alone. And if one of us must fall tonight — protect the Pilot. We crossed the edge of impossible, time split open at our feet, dead worlds whispering through the walls, past and present underneath. We ran through factories of death, watched soldiers built like parts in chains, every step another answer written down in blood and flame. They called you weapon. They called me expendable. They never understood. A Titan can calculate the odds — but loyalty was never part of the code. "Trust me." Two simple words from a voice made out of steel. And somehow they meant more than anything human ever said. Target locked. Core online. Warning. Warning. Critical damage. No retreat. No surrender. No second chance. BT! "Cooper, trust me." NO! Flames in the cockpit. Stars in the glass. One final throw — and the world goes black. What makes a soldier? Orders? Training? A name carved into armor? What makes a machine more than metal? Maybe it's choosing who you refuse to leave behind. Maybe a soul isn't something you're born with. Maybe it's something you prove. One mission. One bond. One final protocol. PROTOCOL THREE — PROTECT THE PILOT. Even when the reactor burns, even when the body breaks, hold the line until the end. You gave me more than armor ever could — you gave me a reason to stay. Machine and man, steel and bone, we fought like neither stood alone. And when the stars swallowed your light — I still heard you in the silence. Mission complete. Pilot Cooper: alive. Titan BT-7274: signal lost. Unknown transmission detected. "Jack?" Stand by for Titanfall. ℹ️ ABOUT Concept, direction and edit: TheHymnForge. Music And Vocals generated with AI (Suno).
