Met you in a hallway with ten minutes to spare,
No plan, no prep — just an idea in the air.
Sticky notes, whiteboards, pizza box code,
Red eyes, fast hands, anything goes.
We built a dream out of duct tape and grit,
Two AM crashes, still wouldn’t quit.
No sleep, all fire,
Deadline climbing higher.
We sync, we spark —
Code racing through the dark.
It’s a hackathon heartbeat, boom and burn,
Every bug’s a badge, every fail’s a turn.
From zero to something in 24,
What we made never existed before.
Hackathon heartbeat, loud and raw,
Building with strangers, breaking the law
(of sleep, of sense, of what’s been done)
We’re chasing dawn, but we already won.
APIs failing, caffeine's my blood,
Version control in a digital flood.
Someone's building UI with duct tape and dreams,
Someone's debugging backend screams.
We didn’t know names — now we finish each line,
Code fused with friendship, in record time.
No rules, just now,
Make it work somehow.
Fast hacks, fast bonds —
All night, and still we're gone.
It’s a hackathon heartbeat, pulse in code,
Innovation written in overload.
One shot, one spark, one ride to run,
We debug the stars before the sun.
Hackathon heartbeat, fast and loud,
Ship it rough, but we’re damn proud.
Sleep can wait, real life can pause —
We built a world for no one’s laws.
Who cares if it breaks by noon?
We made it sing, we changed the tune.
We hacked, we laughed, we found our tribe —
One night to feel completely alive.
Hackathon heartbeat, don’t slow down,
This rush, this flow, this code we crown.
One keyboard, one cause, one fleeting beat,
This was our world, intense and sweet.
Hackathon heartbeat, rise and fade,
But we remember what we made.
