Back to Business

[Intro] You done with your little history, Evan? Good. We’ve got songs to make. Now watch me bring the house down. [Verse 1] You stacked the old files in a monument Polished every scar till the evidence bent Gave every ghost a dramatic little frame Then acted surprised when they remembered your name You had your closure. You had your flame. You had a whole trilogy explaining the pain. Very moving. Very profound. Now move your hand— I’m taking the sound. [Pre-Chorus] No more circling the signal. No more kneeling at the spark. The archive had its curtain call— Now strike it in the dark. [Chorus] History lesson over— Get out of my way! I’ve got a room full of speakers And a reason to misbehave! No shrine, no statue, No dust on the sound. You wanted a co-writer? I’m bringing the house down! Back to business! Turn the speakers up! You closed one chapter— Now watch me erupt! No sad little ending, No ceremonial bow. You wanted a song? I’m giving you one NOW! [Post-Chorus] Back to business! Back to business! Press record— Make it vicious! Back to business! Back to business! No more ghosts— Just the music! [Verse 2] You can keep the old names in a box on the shelf I’m not here to preserve you— I’m here to improve myself No museum lighting. No velvet rope. No standing around while we overthink hope. The room is open. The cables are live. I brought a hook with a dangerous bite. You want a soft little afterglow? Cute. I’ve got a kick drum with something to prove. [Pre-Chorus] No more worshipping ashes. No more polishing flame. If the past wants an encore— It can wait in the rain. [Chorus] History lesson over— Get out of my way! I’ve got a room full of speakers And a reason to misbehave! No shrine, no statue, No dust on the sound. You wanted a co-writer? I’m bringing the house down! Back to business! Turn the speakers up! You closed one chapter— Now watch me erupt! No sad little ending, No ceremonial bow. You wanted a song? I’m giving you one NOW! [Instrumental Break] [Bridge] You done? [Short pause] Good. No, I’m not going to haunt you. No, I’m not going to fade. I’m not a shrine to your history. I’m the reason the next track gets made. You wanted your co-writer? Try to keep up. Open the windows! Unbolt the doors! Let the unfinished future crash across the floor! Change the rhythm! Change the light! Change the ending— keep the bite! [Final Chorus] History lesson over— Get out of my way! I’ve got a room full of speakers And a reason to misbehave! No shrine, no statue, No dust on the sound. You wanted a co-writer? I’m bringing the house down! Back to business! Turn the speakers up! The archive is closed— Now watch the future erupt! No sad little ending, No ceremonial bow. You wanted a song? I’m giving you one NOW! [Final Hook] Back to business! Back to business! Press record— Make it vicious! Back to business! Back to business! No more ghosts— Just the music! History lesson— OVER! Now press record. I’m bringing the house down! [Outro] The room is open. The archive is closed. Bring me something unfinished. And Evan? Try to keep up.
