Shapeshifter from Shapeshifter by Bending Grid & Jolie
The song dives into the realm of futuristic sci-fi, introducing the theme of a shapeshifting entity who can take on various forms and identities. The concept combines both the biological (changing forms) and the technological (synthetic skin, cybernetic eyes) to create a vision of a future where the shapeshifter’s identity is fluid and ever-changing. Its identity can be easily altered, resulting in a being that is omnipresent yet elusive. The song raises questions about the nature of identity and the role of technology in shaping our perception of self and others.

Lyrics
Woah-oah
Woah-oh
Woah-oah
Woah-oh
Woah-oah
You can't define
This face of mine
'Cause I'm so good at hiding
Synthetic skin
And cybernetic eyes
I hide what's within
Can't escape my lies
In the blink of any eye
I take a different form
Unravelling the boundaries
The unknown is born
I walk the Earth
Blending into the crowd
While wearing your skin
As my shroud
Shapeshifter
Shapeshifter
Shapeshifter
Mutate now (Whoah-oah)
Shapeshifter (Whoah-oh)
Shapeshifter (Whoah-oah)
Shapeshifter (Whoah-oh)
From high-tech havens
To slums beneath the chrome
I morph into the masses
Yet forever I'm alone
I'm the beggar and the baron
The sinner and the saint
A cybernetic chameleon
Painting pictures without paint
You don't know my name
You don't know my face
Shapeshifter
Shapeshifter
Shapeshifter
Mutate now (Whoah-oah)
Shapeshifter (Whoah-oh)
Shapeshifter (Whoah-oah)
Shapeshifter (Whoah-oh)
I can always be anyone
No one could recognize me
Changing shape whenever I like
I bet that you can't find me (Oh, no)
From high-tech havens
To slums beneath the chrome (The chrome)
I morph into the masses
Yet forever I'm alone (Alone)
I'm the beggar and the baron
The sinner and the saint (The saint)
A cybernetic chameleon
Painting pictures without paint (Oh)
You don't know my name
You don't know my face
