[Intro — radio chatter / low tension] [Comms] “Target's inside.” “Two minutes.” “Stay quiet.” “No unnecessary kills.” [Static] “...You hear that?” [Beat cuts] [Alarm] “MOVE!” [Verse 1 — rapid, controlled] Red lights flashing through the hallway Boots hitting concrete like a war drum We came in quiet, left the door clean Now the whole damn building knows we're here Target secured, package in my hand Then the elevators lock from underground Someone sold us out before we even came Now we're trapped inside a burning maze [Pre-Chorus — rising] Comms are breaking Signals fading Who's still breathing? Who's betraying? I hear gunfire through the walls... [Chorus — explosive] DEAD DROP! Everything went wrong DEAD DROP! Now we're running from the dawn Sirens on my six Blood dripping on the chrome We came here for the money NOW WE'RE FIGHTING TO GET HOME DEAD DROP! No way back tonight DEAD DROP! City's coming alive Lock the doors Load the guns If we die— WE DIE RUNNING. [Backing vocals — distant falsetto] Ooh-ahh... Ooh-ahh... [Verse 2] Cornered on the thirty-second floor Snipers watching through the broken glass One of ours just stopped responding Don't have time to ask what happened Magazine empty, reload Cyberware screaming overload My vision's flickering violet-red Target's worth more than the living dead [Comms — distorted] “Extraction?” [Static] “Extraction, respond.” [Static] “WHERE THE FUCK IS EXTRACTION?” [Pre-Chorus — building] Comms are breaking Signals fading Heart is racing No escaping I hear footsteps through the walls... [Chorus — heavier] DEAD DROP! Everything went wrong DEAD DROP! Now we're running from the dawn Sirens on my six Blood dripping on the chrome We came here for the money NOW WE'RE FIGHTING TO GET HOME DEAD DROP! No way back tonight DEAD DROP! City's coming alive Lock the doors Load the guns If we die— WE DIE RUNNING. [Post-Chorus — glitch / chopped vocals] Run! Run! RUN! [Beat distortion] [Bridge — sudden silence] [Whisper] “Where's the extraction?” [Long pause] [Distorted voice] “...There isn't one.” [Heartbeat] [Heartbeat] [Heartbeat] [Beat explodes] [Verse 3 — furious] So we make our own way out Through the fire, through the smoke Every floor becomes a battlefield Every second gets us closer to the edge They wanted bodies on the pavement They wanted us erased So I ripped the doors from their armored cars And put their whole damn army in its place [Build] No extraction! No backup! No mercy! NO WAY BACK! [Final Chorus — massive] DEAD DROP! Everything went wrong DEAD DROP! But we're still fucking on Sirens on my six Blood dripping on the chrome They tried to bury us alive— WE'RE COMING FOR THEIR HOME. DEAD DROP! Burn the whole thing down DEAD DROP! Let the sirens shake the town You wanted war? YOU GOT ONE. [Outro — distorted radio] “Anyone still alive?” [Static] “...Yeah.” “Extraction?” [Pause] “Fuck extraction.” [Engine ignition] [Airy falsetto] Ooh-ahh... Ooh-ahh... [Whisper] We make our own way home.
