Lyrics below. You were once a young coder with bright eyes. Now the day is finally here where they call you...TECH LEAD.


(Chorus 2x)
Used to write code but now I’m just stressin’
Used to write code but now they want metrics
Used to write code now I just take questions
This don’t really feel like progression
Meetings on meetings on meetings on meetings
Used to write code, but now I’m just scheming
Used to write code but now I just read it
Used to write code, but now I’m tech leading

Used to write code then they asked me do you wanna tech lead
I said ok, yes
Used to write code now I share context
Writing out specs for my team projects
Title’s all flex, no pay bump in my paychecks
Ain’t even take time off yet
Used to be chill but now it’s no rest
Used to write code but now I’m all stressed
Now I’m tech lead but I don’t lead tech
I just pick up whatever tasks are left
Unless someone wants to volunteer?
[crickets]
Ok I see, gotta delegate
More meetings on my plate just to coordinate
Used to write code now I write release dates
Used to write code in the good old days

(Chorus 2x)
Used to write code but now I’m just stressin’
Used to write code but now they want metrics
Used to write code now I just take questions
This don’t really feel like progression
Meetings on meetings on meetings on meetings
Used to write code, but now I’m just scheming
Used to write code but now I just read it
Used to write code, but now I’m tech leading

Used to write code now I got no time
Used to write code now I got deadlines
Try to make sure everyone is unblocked
Used to write code, now I just talk
Used to write code now I give presentations
Make slides pretty and rehearse what I’m saying
Try to impress and represent my team
Meanwhile team doesn’t care about me
Anyway still gotta do team bonding
In the 1x1 keep running outta topics
Looking at me like I just stepped in
Used to write code now I just check in
Don’t wanna be a manager or an IC
So I’ma just stay right here in between
Used to write code
Used to write code, now I tech lead

(Chorus 2x)
Used to write code but now I’m just stressin’
Used to write code but now they want metrics
Used to write code now I just take questions
This don’t really feel like progression
Meetings on meetings on meetings on meetings
Used to write code, but now I’m just scheming
Used to write code but now I just read it
Used to write code, but now I’m tech leading
