Burn the Asphalt
[poem 1] The car leans sideways The clutch is in the floor, the tires tear up the asphalt, screeching as they break loose Black denim, the gleam of gold teeth Dirt streaks along the hem of the skirt A hand in a leather glove grips the steering wheel The eyes catch the curb at the entrance to the curve The handbrake tugs briefly, with a click And the angle holds steady, like on a thread It’s hot in the back seat of the car The engine growls, as if it’s asking for another corner Scratches on the paint — Her pride, her marks from the wall One hand in the open window Two wheels hang above the ground in a skid Money for the night shift Neatly rolled up in a glove She doesn’t need a crown She’s already their queen [before the chorus] Keep the trajectory Don’t take your eyes off it Left leg, then right leg Disappear Smoke in the mirror Too close Say my name And fly away [chorus] The roar of the engine, the screech of tires — Everything is on fire! Step on the gas, burn the asphalt, Let the night blaze! You’re flying sideways, hurtling into hell, Adrenaline is pumping! Show them who’s boss here, Break free from the chains! [verse 2] Shadows from the net Cut into the frame Her team is on the track Burning like a cheat code The screams fade away And sound like sparks The headlights cut through The shattered darkness She laughs in the face Of the dead‑end route The rubber on the rim As she hits the road again One more lap And the night grows louder All this noise Can’t slow her down [before the chorus] Hold this line Don’t blink now Left leg, right leg Disappear Smoke in the mirror Too close Say my name Then fly out [chorus] The roar of the engine, the screech of tires — Everything is on fire! Step on the gas, burn the asphalt, Let the night blaze! You’re flying sideways, hurtling into hell, Adrenaline is pumping! Show them who’s boss here, Break free from the chains! [bridge] [spoken aloud] Don't stop No panic Sharp turn No panic [Excerpt from the song] Side Methods Halo Side Methods Halo [chorus] The roar of the engine, the screech of tires — Everything is on fire! Step on the gas, burn the asphalt, Let the night blaze! You’re flying sideways, hurtling into hell, Adrenaline is pumping! Show them who’s boss here, Break free from the chains!
