[Verse 1] Blue on black, I bite back White on brown, boots on cracked ground Yellow, red, I wear the heat Green and purple under my feet Violet smoke in the glass Teal and aqua in the flash Cocoa, caramel, on my tongue Old world grit, but I’m still young [Pre-Chorus] Hands up high, then fold Steel in the spine, I hold Shamisen cry, then it cuts through I turn the hurt into fuel [Chorus] Chevron riot, chevron riot Stars and stripes in my riot Blue on black, we don’t fold We hit hard, we hit cold Chevron riot, chevron riot Every color, loud and violent Brown and gold, red and green We come through like a machine [Verse 2] Cho aniki, say my name Aikido move in the flame Twist the wrist, flip the rage Turn the cage into a stage Tex mex dust on the chain Calypso sweat in the rain I got thunder in my chest And a jagged kind of best [Pre-Chorus] Hands up high, then fold Steel in the spine, I hold Shamisen cry, then it cuts through I turn the hurt into fuel [Chorus] Chevron riot, chevron riot Stars and stripes in my riot Blue on black, we don’t fold We hit hard, we hit cold Chevron riot, chevron riot Every color, loud and violent Brown and gold, red and green We come through like a machine [Bridge] Oh-oh, I bend, I snap Then I come right back Oh-oh, strike that pose From the dirt to the glow Aikido swing, then I land Open palm, iron hand Cho aniki, hear me roar Kick the frame, kick the door [Final Chorus] Chevron riot, chevron riot Stars and stripes in my riot Blue on black, we don’t fold We hit hard, we hit cold Chevron riot, chevron riot Every color, loud and violent Brown and gold, red and green We come through like a machine Chevron riot, chevron riot All my scars look brighter now Blue on black, watch me rise Every color in my eyes
