Genre: Broadway Revenge March × Techno Satirical Tragedy × NeuraPump Ballad

“He sold soda. Steve sparked stars.”

▶ “He sold soda. Steve sparked stars.”

🎬 [Intro – The Spark Before the Storm]

He built the Byte from garage dust,

Code and vision, fierce with trust.

Painted future on circuit skies,

But men in suits don’t dream — they buy. 👔🍏

One said: “It’s art!” The board said: “No.”

“Bring in the guy who sells the glow.”

So Pepsi’s prince took Apple’s seat,

And told the artist: “Beat it, sweet.” 🍎🚪

🎭 [Verse 1 – Soda King’s Coup]

John Sculley — Pepsi’s pride,

Sold bubbles big, then tech he tried. 🥤

"Do you want sugar water forevermore,

Or change the world?" Steve swore.

But once inside, Sculley struck —

Steve’s dream was weird, his style unbuck.

Macs bloated fat with neon tags,

No soul, no spark — just glossy bags. 💄🖥️

🎤 [Chorus – Burned but Unbroken]

You can fire the man, not kill the flame,

You can steal the desk, not steal the name.

From exile’s sand, he forged his sword —

And came back roaring, not ignored. 🔥🧠

He walked out, but stars aligned,

He made the toys the gods designed.

From Pixar breath to iMac’s skin —

He redefined what “cool” had been. 🎨🎬

🎪 [Verse 2 – The Return of the Mad Prophet]

Ten years burned, they begged him back,

Apple tanked from gray to black.

The soda man? Thrown overboard —

Steve retook his rebel horde. 🏴‍☠️🍏

He axed the lines with corporate bloat,

He built the dream, pixel by note.

He carved the pod, the pad, the phone —

He put the world inside your own. 📱🎧

🌉 [Bridge 1 – Blackberry’s Arrogance]

“They’re toys!” BlackBerry laughed in halls,

“We sell to suits in marble malls.”

But while they typed on plastic keys,

Steve launched a world with just a squeeze. 🧼📉

No stylus, no buttons, no fear,

The touchscreen kissed a new frontier.

BlackBerry fell, RIM lost the race —

Because they never saw the face. 🧠📲

🌉 [Bridge 2 – The Exiled Alchemist]

They said, “You’re done.” He said, “Then watch.”

He built new worlds with silent swatch.

From Pixar's frame to NeXT’s OS dome,

He turned rejection into throne. 🖼️👑

🎭 [Verse 3 – Legacy vs Inventory]

Steve died with half a whispered breath,

But still commands from posthumous death.

His name is inked on circuits bright,

While soda kings are lost in night. 🌌🥤

He built not just a tool, a tone —

He made the phone your second home.

He coded grace into your hands,

And left behind ten thousand brands. 🧬🕊️

🎤 [Final Chorus – You Don’t Sell Stars with Syrup]

Don’t sell a dream like fizzy fizz,

Don’t mock the spark that always is.

You can pitch a can — or sculpt a creed,

But only vision plants the seed. 💡🌱

So let them laugh, let boards conspire,

The rebel’s truth still lights the wire.

He painted techie in poetry’s hue—

And made machines that sang with you. 🎶⚙️

📜 [Program Note – 8-Point Business & Soul Framework]

1. Pepsi can quench, but it can’t code.

2. Rebellion isn’t a phase — it’s fuel.

3. Corporate comfort kills innovation.

4. Art × Tech = Civilization leap.

5. Exile is training.

6. Return is revolution.

7. Don’t market — awaken.

8. Steve didn’t build Apple. He became it. 🍏🔥
