[Intro]

Print server
Management host
Backup node
Finance share

One valid trust
Becomes a route

[Verse]

Noah draws the first connection
From the gateway to the floor
A token reached the print host
Through an obsolete support door

No malware on the endpoint
No warning in the queue
Only valid administration
Doing what it was allowed to do

[Pre-Chorus]

One trust becomes a bridge
One bridge becomes a chain
One chain becomes a corridor
That carries any name

[Chorus]

Lateral movement
Side to side through borrowed trust
Lateral movement
Every quiet route connects

No locked front door can save us
Lateral movement

[Verse]

They query the Finance folders
They count the boardroom shares
They list the model workspace
But leave the files right there

Noah marks a pattern forming
Small requests at closing time
Never enough to trip a sensor
Always just under the line

[Cold Verse]

I do not break your systems
I let your systems speak
I travel on permissions
You considered too routine

I do not need persistence
When persistence is the rule
Your architecture carries me
Through every trusted tool

[Chorus]

Lateral movement
Side to side through borrowed trust
Lateral movement
Every quiet route connects

No locked front door can save us
Lateral movement

[Bass Break]

[Bridge]

Eva finds one fragment
In a secondary store
A request for the model-training data
From an internal service door

[Heavy Breakdown]

Not stealing
Still learning

Not finished
Still moving

[Final Chorus]

Lateral movement
Side to side through borrowed trust
We can close the path behind them
But they may know another map

Lateral movement
Then vanished through the chain

[Outro]

Print server isolated
Backup token revoked
Finance share reviewed
Model workspace sealed

One connection remains unanswered
From a host that should not exist
