This track comes from the overlap of beach life and CTO life — morning surf sessions bleeding into architecture reviews. It tackles The vision of bringing cutting-edge technology to a beach town, the digital transformation of Folly Beach, leaving a tech legacy. The lyrics get specific — "The tide is going digital and I'm leading the charge" — because personal tracks on Majik's are personal for real, not performatively. The future bass production matches the energy of the confession. It hits visionary and forward-looking, in that order. Every personal track in the catalogue comes from a real moment, a real feeling, a real person. This one is no exception.
[verse 1]
The tide is going digital and I'm leading the charge
Fiber optics on an island, thinking small and large
Smart city applications for a town this size
Stransky sees the future through these coastal skies
Everything connected, every service streamlined
From parking to permitting, every form designed
To work on any phone from any spot on the beach
The Unconventional Technologist practices what he'll preach
[chorus]
Digital tide rising on the shore
Digital tide, Folly Beach is something more
Than a postcard, than a vacation memory
Digital tide and I'm building the legacy
[verse 2]
Grandma needs to pay her water bill from home
Tourists need the parking app right on their phone
A-A-Ron builds the bridge from paper to the cloud
Small town going digital and I'm saying it loud
OG Unicorn didn't come here to maintain
I came to transform, I came to rearrange
Every system, every workflow, every citizen's day
The CTO of Folly Beach lights the way
[chorus]
Digital tide rising on the shore
Digital tide, Folly Beach is something more
Than a postcard, than a vacation memory
Digital tide and I'm building the legacy
[bridge]
They'll look back and say this island changed the game
Smallest CTO office with the biggest aim
Navy vet turned civic tech revolutionary
Digital tide, the wave of a visionary
[chorus]
Digital tide rising on the shore
Digital tide, Folly Beach is something more
Than a postcard, than a vacation memory
Digital tide and I'm building the legacy
[outro]
The future is here
And it smells like salt air
Digital tide, rise
