[00:14.20] The world didn’t collapse.

[00:18.89] It just learned to borrow.

[00:27.56] Buy now, pay later.

[00:31.35] Not just money —

[00:34.20] time, breath, attention, life.

[00:41.65] We look rich on screens,

[00:45.17] powerful in numbers,

[00:47.39] successful in motion.

[00:52.69] But everything runs on credit now.

[00:58.19] Bodies.

[01:01.38] Cities.

[01:04.84] Dreams.

[01:08.98] The bill doesn’t come loudly.

[01:12.44] It comes as exhaustion.

[01:14.46] As silence.

[01:18.46] As not being able to breathe.

[01:22.89] I learned to tighten every silence

[01:26.32] Hold my breath to feel alive

[01:33.42] Built a fortress in my body

[01:38.45] Just to prove that I could fight

[01:46.94] Every muscle learned obedience

[01:50.58] Every nerve stayed on alert

[01:53.77] But the cost was never mentioned

[01:57.40] When the body pays in hurt

[02:02.72] Buy now, pay later

[02:05.36] Strong now, empty later

[02:08.55] Fun now, sad later

[02:12.02] Borrowed breath, borrowed power

[02:16.46] Buy now, pay later

[02:18.84] Bright now, hollow later

[02:22.29] Fun now, sad later

[02:26.55] A body living on credit

[02:41.44] Cities running on tomorrow

[02:44.80] Markets trading future days

[02:48.25] Everyone looks rich in numbers

[02:51.61] But tired in quieter ways

[02:54.81] Growth that doesn’t know how to soften

[02:58.26] Always asks for something more

[03:01.72] Like a world that keeps on winning

[03:05.33] While forgetting what it’s for

[03:10.91] Buy now, pay later

[03:13.30] Strong now, empty later

[03:16.75] Fun now, sad later

[03:20.21] Borrowed breath, borrowed power

[03:52.60] If bodies borrow from tomorrow

[03:56.39] So do nations, so do dreams

[04:01.87] What happens when the bill arrives

[04:06.83] And nothing’s left to breathe?

[04:09.12] Buy now, pay later

[04:11.51] Strong now, empty later

[04:14.44] Fun now, sad later

[04:18.42] Borrowed breath, borrowed power

[04:21.72] Not now, for longer

[04:24.80] Not loud, but deeper

[04:28.26] Not rich for hollow

[04:32.41] I choose a life that can stay

[04:41.37] I don’t need borrowed power

[04:45.37] I need a future that can breathe
