Lyrics
Description
[Verse 1]
In the heart of every cell a spiral holds the plan,
A double helix whispering the map of who I am.
RNA polymerase reads the strand, writing mRNA by hand,
A message born in nucleus, a signal to the land.
[Pre-Chorus]
Caps and tail, the transcript’s set to roam,
From the nucleus it sails — a messenger goes home.
Ribosomes are waiting, the cytoplasm lights the scene,
The stage is set for translation, where the code convenes.
[Chorus]
DNA to mRNA to protein, we sing —
Code to life, let the chorus ring.
DNA to mRNA to protein, we sing —
Code to life, feel the chorus ring.
[Verse 2]
Ribosome reads codons, three letters at a time,
Start at AUG — the rhythm, the meter, the prime.
tRNA brings each triplet’s prize — anticodon fits, the peptide ties,
Amino acids snap like beads, peptide bonds arise.
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Elongation hums, enzymes guide each line,
Release factors pause at stop codons’ sign.
Polypeptide grows, the sequence now is steamed,
Direction and precision in every genetic dream.
[Chorus]
DNA to mRNA to protein, we sing —
Code to life, let the chorus ring.
DNA to mRNA to protein, we sing —
Code to life, feel the chorus ring.
[Bridge]
Folding curves and loops, the shape defines the role,
Chaperones hold the arc while the chain finds its soul.
From primary to tertiary, function finds its scene,
A molecular ballet — precise, refined, and keen.
[Breakdown - Spoken / Soft]
mRNA, tRNA, anticodon, ribosome — one flow.
Start: AUG. Stop: UAA, UAG, UGA — the signal to let go.
[Final Chorus - Variation]
DNA → mRNA → Protein, now seen,
Code to life, now folded, formed, alive and seen.
DNA → mRNA → Protein, now seen,
Code to life — the in-between becomes the dream.
[Outro]
So sing the spiral’s hymn, the letters and the lines,
A language small and sharp that scaffolds all design.
From code to chorus, from gene to living gleam,
We celebrate the secret: the making of a dream.
Code to Life: DNA → Protein
