Slipstream Shuffle

Spin me through the slipstream, Sizzle in a sidewind, Chasin’ every chuckle that the chaos left behind. Jitter in the jawline, Tangle with the timeline, Twist another truth until the truth turns kind. I’m a backbeat battler with a half-bent halo, Talkin’ like a tongue-tied tornado, Tryna’ trace trouble through a tightrope tango ’Fore the whole damn night says “lay low.” Well I trip, flip, dip, skip, Fall into the frame, Slide, glide, collide, Never land the same. So I spin that slipstream shuffle, Rattle that runaway rhyme. If the world’s off-key, I double it, Bend the note and buy some time. Yeah, I spin that slipstream shuffle Where the lost beats learn to climb, Till my lungs give out or my heartbeat shouts, I’ll outrun every rhyme. Snapback syntax, Rippin’ through the riff-rack, Every little word is a whip-crack tic. Tip-toe tongue tricks, Flickin’ off the clock ticks, Tryna’ outtalk every parabolic kick. I’m a fast-lane phantom on a back-bend bender, Stitchin’ up the air like a breath-born mender, If the night gets loud, I’ll get louder to defend her, Spillin’ syllables in spirals ’til the sky turns tender. Spin, sprawl, stagger, stall, Still I chase the sound. Trip, twirl, tremble, fall, Still I come back around. So I spin that slipstream shuffle, Rattle that runaway rhyme. If the world’s off-key, I double it, Bend the note and buy some time. Yeah, I spin that slipstream shuffle Where the lost beats learn to climb, Till my lungs give out or my heartbeat shouts, I’ll outrun every rhyme. Breath-break—backtrack—beat that line, Fret-shake—fire-snake—twist that spine, Tongue-tap—throat-rap—thread that sign, Double-time the trouble ’til the trouble feels fine. Chase that chatter with a scattershot shine, Race that rattle through the riddle in rhyme, Breakway backslide borderline design, I’m a runaway reel in a real quick bind. Spin that slipstream shuffle, Let the wild notes realign. Every breath I break becomes a vow To outrun my own mind. Yeah, spin that slipstream shuffle Till the daylight draws a line, And the night exhales that last detail I was born to redefine.
