(Verse 1) Is this just a concept, or is this strategy keen? Caught in a big tech, no escape from the scheme, Open your eyes, look up to the screens and see, "E-E-E," that's the name, it's no mystery.

(Chorus) Embrace, extend, extinguish, A technique they call distinguished, But it's really quite extinguished, To the losers, it's a nightmare, to the winners, it's a dream.

(Verse 2) Give a little glance, to a world full of code, In the corporate stance, see how their actions flowed, Embrace, extend, and extinguish, From small tech innovations to those giant-sized wishes.

(Chorus) Embrace, extend, extinguishing the light, Innovation in the shadow, yet claiming it's right, The strategy's plain, as day or night, It's the landscape of tech, evoking quite a fight.

(Bridge) Embrace, welcoming tech with a smile, Beneath that guise, there's something quite vile. Extend, broadening the reach oh so wide, Programming, developing, can't escape the tide.

(Chorus) Extinguish, the crown of this plan, Corporate giants ruling the tech span. From the mom and pop tech, to the coder's free hand, It's all part of the game, in the corporate techland.

(Outro) So you see, E-E-E, it's more than it seems, A deadly trio, disrupting the dreams, Control over technology downstream, Wake up from the lullaby, it's time to intervene.

@[email protected] if embrace, extend, and extinguish were 3 of the 4 horsemen of the apocalypse, who would you say would be the 4th?

Oh thanks, I was wondering why it wasn't responding, thought I might have broken it. Normally I just pick the first one in the auto complete but I guess I need to pay more attention.
