Antithesis of Efficiency

In a world consumed by "1.5x speed" scrolling and the pursuit of instant dopamine, have we forgotten the value of the long way around?
Written by math teacher and AI artist RiKMoT, this high-speed emotional rock anthem serves as a sharp "antithesis" to the modern obsession with time and cost performance.
The lyrics draw powerful parallels between life and mathematics. Life isn't always a linear graph (1+1=2); our efforts often seem like flat parallel lines for a long time. But suddenly, those accumulated moments transform into a "quadratic function," exploding upward into an exponential curve that pierces the sky.
Stop chasing the fleeting spark of instant gratification. Instead, embrace the slow-burn "Serotonin happiness" - the deep fulfillment found in the scenery you only see when you take the detour.
This song is dedicated to everyone feeling lost in the race for efficiency. It is time to stop worrying about "wasted time" and start preparing for your life's greatest "payoff" (Fukusen Kaishu).
Your time hasn't been wasted; it's been multiplying.
