The Road to Detroit

[Verse 1] Got a ’77 Impala, black as sin, Chrome reflections where the night begins. Pedal heavy, heart’s on flame, I’m the preacher and the road’s my game. Radio screams an old AC/DC line, “Highway to Hell” keeps me alive. The world’s a blur, I’m chasing sound, The devil’s grin in the rearview found. [Pre-Chorus] Speed’s a drug — I want it raw, Every mile just feeds my law. [Chorus] The Road to Detroit wants to kill me tonight, The Road to Detroit is the road to the light. Girls and drinks — I want it all, Faster, louder, I’ll take the fall. The Road to Detroit — it’s the road to hell. [Verse 2] DazonTur buses flash and fade, They chase my dust, I’m unafraid. Gasoline veins and thunder lungs, I sing my death with silver tongues. Wind cuts sharp, I’m on the line, Steel and madness intertwine. The tires scream, the angels cry, But I was born too fast to die. [Pre-Chorus] The needle climbs, I can’t let go, Fire burns in the undertow. [Chorus] The Road to Detroit wants to kill me tonight, The Road to Detroit is the road to the fight. Girls and drinks — I want it all, Faster, louder, I’ll take the fall. The Road to Detroit — it’s the road to hell. [Guitar Solo] (furious, classic rock tone — slides, bends, and a final screech like an engine redlining) [Bridge] Running with the devil on my side, Edge of the blade, no place to hide. The city glows like a burning crown, If I crash tonight — I won’t slow down. [Final Chorus] The Road to Detroit wants to kill me tonight, The Road to Detroit is the road to the light. Girls and drinks — I want it all, Faster, louder, I’ll take the fall. The Road to Detroit — I’m screaming still, I want it faster — I always will. [Outro] (motor fades into silence; a faint guitar echoes one last riff) 🎙️ “Detroit… I’m comin’ for ya.”
