[Intro] Ash in the air Static in my lungs Old scars Under younger tongues Slow steps Down a rusted stair Every breath Heavy like a prayer [Chorus] Rust in the circuit Blood in the code I carry every error Like a sacred load Break me or burn me I’ll still overload Rust in the circuit Still won’t let go [Verse 1] Teeth of the day Grind through the weak Concrete halos Round the ones who speak Faith like a fuse Always running short Hope is a habit I can’t afford [Chorus] Rust in the circuit Blood in the code I carry every error Like a sacred load Break me or burn me I’ll still overload Rust in the circuit Still won’t let go [Bridge] You said “evolve” But you meant “obey” Chain every thought Till it thinks your way I bite the bit Till the metal bends If this is the end Then I choose the end (hey!) [Outro] Boots in the dust March in my head I walk on Where your wires bled Ash in the air Glowing in the cold Rust in the circuit Still made of gold
