Midnight Deploy

This track comes from the late-night hours when Aaron's guard comes down and honesty replaces performance. It tackles The adrenaline rush of deploying code to production at midnight, the risk and reward of pushing live. The lyrics get specific — "OG Unicorn deploying in the dead of night" — because personal tracks on Majik's are personal for real, not performatively. The lo-fi, electronic production matches the energy of the confession. It hits intense and energetic, 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] Fingers on the keyboard, heart is beating fast Git push to production, pray the tests all passed OG Unicorn deploying in the dead of night Server logs are clean and every endpoint's tight Docker containers spinning up like soldiers in a line Navy discipline applied to every design No room for error when the world's about to see What Aaron built alone with coffee and esprit [chorus] Midnight deploy, hit the switch and let it fly Live in production, watch the traffic multiply Midnight deploy, there's no safety net below Sink or swim, this is everything I know [verse 2] Slack is quiet, nobody knows I'm here Pushing out the platform, conquering the fear CTO of Folly Beach with a master plan Building tech solutions that nobody else can Load balancer's green, the SSL is locked Every API tested, every endpoint clocked From the Navy to the terminal, mission stays the same Execute with precision, never fear the flame [chorus] Midnight deploy, hit the switch and let it fly Live in production, watch the traffic multiply Midnight deploy, there's no safety net below Sink or swim, this is everything I know [bridge] Version control tells the story of my nights Thousands of commits like a thousand city lights Each one a decision, each one a small prayer That the code holds up when the users get there [chorus] Midnight deploy, hit the switch and let it fly Live in production, watch the traffic multiply Midnight deploy, there's no safety net below Sink or swim, this is everything I know
