LYRICS:

CHORUS:
Yo, dive into the cell where the secrets dwell,
The chromosomes in the nucleus, they're doing it well
All the Genetic stories told in every cell
Yeah it’s the blueprint of life in a tiny shell

VERSE 1
Let's take a trip down the microscopic lane
Inside of a cell, where life’s mysteries reign
Here we find the chromosomes, yeah they carry the genes
Structures so complex, like nothing you’ve ever seen

Each chromosome, a long DNA molecule
Genetic info, like an encyclopedia's article
They are paired up in us humans, yeah like 23 times, and they’re
Carrying traits, from your eyes all the way to your enzymes

VERSE 2
Then we have the telomeres, at the chromosome ends
They are protecting DNA like they’re best of friends
And the centromeres, in the middle section
They are holding sister chromatids, in tight connection

Twisted ladders of DNA, with their secrets so deep
The histones clinging around, they’re never missing a beat
Together forming nucleosomes, they are these structures so neat
In the nucleus of the cell, this is where - all of these meet

VERSE 3
In the chromosome, DNA reigns supreme
A double helix spiral, yeah - it’s like a dream
There’s the Sugar and the phosphate, it’s the backbone's theme
A structure so complex, yet it seems serene

Deoxyribose, it’s the sugar, in each spine
Phosphates bridging the gaps, they do it line by line
They’re creating a ladder, it has a twist that’s divine
It’s an architectural wonder, yo man it’s by - design

VERSE 4
Now let's get specific, talk bases, the core
Adenine, Thymine, cytosine, and guanine for sure
Pairing up across the strands, it’s a match that's precise
The A with T, and G with C, nature's own device

They form the Hydrogen bonds, they are connecting them tight
DNA codes for life, in the day and the night
Each sequence is unique, a genetic ID
In every living thing, from the birds to the bees, from you to me
