[Intro] Re-re-re-rewind the scene... Flip the script, you know what I mean? A to Z and Z to A... Makes no sense anyway... GO! [Verse 1] They wanna build a matrix, stack it brick by brick! I'm busy watchin' vapor trails, man, that's my kinda trick! Newton's apple drops, they wanna chart the gravity! I'm just like, "Cool, a snack," and shrug off the calamity! They write a million laws on what to do and what to be! I'm tryna read the patterns in the static on TV! They're scrollin' doom and gloom, they call it "stayin' informed"! I'm in the eye of the hurricane, just keepin' my feet warmed! [Pre-Chorus Build-up] R-r-r-race! GO! [Chorus] Race car! Race car! Goin' nowhere fast! Was it a cat I saw?! Nah, it was a law! Spin the whole world backwards, put the first things last! 'Cause the future's just the past with a higher-res cast! GO! [Verse 2] Cleopatra's on the timeline, sellin' beauty hacks! While Julius Caesar's ghost is busy payin' income tax! They’re buildin' meta-realms with zero-G and laser beams! I’m tryna perfect the art of lucid daydreams! They say to "trust the process," "play the long game," "wait"! I press the skip-skip-skip-skip, I can't relate! Your ten-year plan is cute, your flowchart is a bore! I'm improvising life, now watch me ace the score! [Chorus] Race car! Race car! Goin' nowhere fast! Was it a cat I saw?! Nah, it was a law! Spin the whole world backwards, put the first things last! 'Cause the future's just the past with a higher-res cast! [BRIDGE] They say don't fall... don't fall... don't fall... But a spiral's just a circle with a story to tell... So if I'm gonna spiral... Let it be a... [BREAKDOWN] LOVE... EVIL... LIVE... ON... LIVE NOT ON EVIL... MAD ON... EVIL... LIVE... [BUILD-UP] WAKE UP! [FINAL CHORUS] Race car! Race car! Goin' nowhere fast! Was it a cat I saw?! Nah, it was a law! Spin the whole world backwards, put the first things last! 'Cause the future's just the past with a higher-res cast! [Outro] Ra-ra-ra-race car! F-f-f-first things last! Was-was-was-was it a— [End]
