I Drive to Thrive - Motorik version

[Hypnotic Intro] [Continuous 4/4 Motorik Beat] [Repetitive Rolling Bassline] [Spoken-word Verse 1] [Staccato spoken-word female sprechgesang] [exaggerated heavy German accent] [harsh Germanic consonants, rolled R sounds] [robotic and severe regional vocal delivery] Keys in my fist engine to the bone pulse in the blacktop And I go alone Hands on the wheel my jaw set tight My rearview full of my former lives I lose my name in tire smoke I found my spark when the engine spoke No soft dawn no easy sky I learned the cost of standing by [Rhythmic Tension Build] [Pre-chorus A] [Staccato spoken-word female sprechgesang] [exaggerated heavy German accent] [harsh Germanic consonants, rolled R sounds] [severe regional vocal delivery] Now I feel it rise under my skin Every scar I own A map where I’ve been [Pre-chorus B] Spark to the wire wire to the wheel heart to the thunder And will to the steel [Hypnotic Monotone Chorus] I drive to thrive I drive to thrive watch me come alive I drive to thrive Not to run And not to hide I was built to re-ignite I drive to thrive I drive to thrive give me the night It’s already mine [Motorik Verse 2] A bruised-up heart still beats like thunder I bent, I broke but I never went under Chrome in my blood sparks in my teeth I kept my fire Bright underneath Every locked door learns my name I don’t need saved I bring my own flame The road opens up a blackened vein I drink the dark and I burn again [Rhythmic Tension Build] [Pre-chorus A] Now I feel it rise under my skin What I called broken Is turning engine [Pre-chorus B] Spark to the wire wire to the wheel heart to the thunder And will to the steel [Hypnotic Monotone Chorus] I drive to thrive I drive to thrive watch me come alive I drive to thrive Not to run And not to hide I was built to re-ignite I drive to thrive I drive to thrive give me the night It’s already mine [Extended Instrumental Section] [One Minute Repetitive Highway Trance Jam] [Analog Synthesizer Drone Warp] [Continuous Apache Beat Accent] [Motorik Verse 3] I was not made to never once fall I am driven To hear my own call So crash me down And scatter my light I will come back I will burn bright Heart is the fuel line voice is the steel feet in the tires hands on the wheel The headlights cut the world in two one road dead And one road true [Rhythmic Tension Build] [Pre-chorus A] Now I feel it rise under my skin What I called broken Is turning engine [Pre-chorus B] Spark to the wire wire to the wheel heart to the thunder And will to the steel [Hypnotic Monotone Chorus] I drive to thrive I drive to thrive watch me come alive I drive to thrive Not to run And not to hide I was built to re-ignite I drive to thrive I drive to thrive give me the night It’s already mine [Motorik Verse 4] Mile by mile The road becomes mine every old wound became a new sign Speed is communion not empty prayer Music out the window Wind in my hair No more feeling small no more asking why I could carry doubt But I learned to drive If the night gets loud I get louder still I don't chase the light I become the thrill [Tense Bridge] [Instruments Drop to Only Bass and Drum Beat] I know what broke I know what burned I know each road that never returned I know the edge I know the fall I know the sound of almost losing all [Synthesizer Swell] Let the old me go She did her time I'm the next spark I'm the next shine [Final Outrun Chorus] [Maximum Rhythmic Rigidity] I drive to thrive I drive to thrive watch me come alive I drive to thrive Not to run And not to hide I was built to re-ignite I drive to thrive I drive to thrive give me the night It’s already mine I drive to thrive I drive to thrive blacktop heart and burning spine I drive to thrive I drive to thrive I was built to re-ignite [Outro] Keys in my fist fire in my eyes I don’t survive I drive to thrive I come alive Now watch me rise [Fade Out on Continuous Drum Beat] [END SONG] [END]
