This track comes from the overlap of beach life and CTO life — morning surf sessions bleeding into architecture reviews. It tackles Using the DMAIC framework (Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve, Control) to process a broken heart and rebuild. The lyrics get specific — "Define the problem: I'm alone and it's my fault" — because personal tracks on Majik's are personal for real, not performatively. The synth-pop production matches the energy of the confession. It hits bittersweet and clever, 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]
Define the problem: I'm alone and it's my fault
Measure the damage: heartbreak at twelve on a scale of ten
Analyze the patterns: every time I choose the code over the call
I end up here, Aaron, in this cycle once again
Improve the process: put the laptop down at eight
Control the variables: show up before it's too late
Stransky running DMAIC on his love life now
Black Belt in efficiency but fumbling the vow
[chorus]
DMAIC my heart, define what went wrong
DMAIC my heart, measure where I don't belong
Analyze the damage, improve what's left of me
Control the future, DMAIC and set me free
[verse 2]
Phase gate review of every kiss and every fight
The data shows I disappeared on every busy night
OG Unicorn was building magic while love decayed
The platform launched but the relationship was frayed
So here's the charter: Stransky learns to balance, period
Scope: the heart, timeline: serious
Stakeholders: just me and whoever comes along
Success criteria: a love that's built to last long
[chorus]
DMAIC my heart, define what went wrong
DMAIC my heart, measure where I don't belong
Analyze the damage, improve what's left of me
Control the future, DMAIC and set me free
[bridge]
Control charts on my emotions
Standard deviation in my devotion
I'm an outlier in the game of love
But even outliers find what they're worthy of
[chorus]
DMAIC my heart, define what went wrong
DMAIC my heart, measure where I don't belong
Analyze the damage, improve what's left of me
Control the future, DMAIC and set me free
[outro]
Project status: in progress
Completion date: when I'm ready
Black Belt doesn't rush the process
