V5

[Instrumental Intro] [rotor chop, clipped siren whoop, sub-drop, three string stabs, radio click] [radio] Be advised, entire city is a crime scene. [Verse 1] Streetlight flicker like a heartbeat glitch Whole block wired like a deadman switch Six deep, two cars, one dumb plan First turn, smoke blooms, there goes the van Civ calls shots on a burner line PD stack up on a dotted spine Grappler gnaws at a chrome rear plate Driver yells go and we test that fate Tires spit gravel like the mouth says truth Night eats rules and spits back proof Money in a duffel like a prayer on fire Every wrong move feeds the livewire choir [Pre-Chorus] If the map looks clean, it is lying to you Every calm street hides a bad debut [Chorus] This city hits redline, fuck a clean take Brake lights bloom like a cheap earthquake Sirens sing sharp, we laugh off-key Chaos buys rounds and they all drink free Hands on the wheel, talk cheap, drive mean Every second reloads the same damn scene This city hits redline, floors to the seam We live where the cut screams, right in the steam [Verse 2] Corner store clerk hits a silent ping Two blocks later it is traffic ring Heli paints circles like a drunk saint Spotlight kisses and the nerves go faint Opie ghosts past with a Pontiac grin Trey pulls sky and the rotor says sin Frenchie flips coins with a matchbook smile Lauren clocks plates while we run that mile NPCs pray to the orange cone gods Mechanic bays hum and the tow yard nods EMS ready with the chalk-white sheet Death gets bored and loops the beat [Pre-Chorus] If the plan sounds smart, check the mirror twice Luck is a dealer with loaded dice [Chorus] This city hits redline, fuck a clean take Brake lights bloom like a cheap earthquake Sirens sing sharp, we laugh off-key Chaos buys rounds and they all drink free Hands on the wheel, talk cheap, drive mean Every second reloads the same damn scene This city hits redline, floors to the seam We live where the cut screams, right in the steam [Bridge] [radio] Shots fired, alley cut, unit split three. [rotor whoosh] Air One drifting like a vulture spree. [aside] Count eight beats till the hush goes thin. [chant] Lose the car, keep the arc, breathe in. [Final Chorus] This city hits redline, fuck a clean take Brake lights bloom like a cheap earthquake If the night throws teeth and the roads bite back We grin like wolves and we love that track Sirens still sing, we sing off-key Chaos pours doubles and we drink all three Hands on fate, white-knuckle extreme Redline forever in the smoke and steam [Instrumental Outro] [sub-drop, distant siren fade, metal riser reversed, radio click to dead air]
