[Intro] Tail out the driveway, radio loud Got one hand on the wheel, one on the cloud Dash lights blinking like they know what's up If this thing tips, we don't slow down much [Chorus] I'm goin' down Better flare up a Mayday I'm goin' down today First I'm gonna belt out a Mayday Somebody get my ass out of here Flares out Bails out I won't be crashing here You fuckin' crazy [Verse] Yes Sir I'm a top gunner My brother's in the pit My sister's on the burner Like I can't believe it's not butter If you ever wondered We gon' do it all summer Heat seeker Baby I'm a hot rocket Bags on the top Now it's money in my pocket Everything we touch Man I guess we gotta cop it Once we take it off Man I guess we can't stop it [Hook] Tail out the driveway, let it ring out One hand on the wheel, one foot out If the dash start blinking, we don't back off We just keep it moving when the road gets rough [Chorus] I'm goin' down Better flare up a Mayday I'm goin' down today First I'm gonna belt out a Mayday Somebody get my ass out of here Flares out Bails out I won't be crashing here You fuckin' crazy I'm goin' down Better flare up a Mayday I'm goin' down today First I'm gonna belt out a Mayday Somebody get my ass out of here Flares out Bails out I won't be crashing here You fuckin' crazy [Verse 2] Got the Gs in the G-force My eyes on the prize No detours One mission and you know we don't see yours We're all grown now Why you still a B-boy? Oh Lord Where's the E-brake? Shit's hot and my temper's like a tea cake Man You know I got the house on lock This'll go on 'til we stop Man You know I got the keychain [Hook] Tail out the driveway, let it ring out One hand on the wheel, one foot out If the dash start blinking, we don't back off We just keep it moving when the road gets rough [Bridge] Got smoke on the windshield, hands steady on the wheel Still talking like we owe 'em something, we don't make no deals If the alarms start screaming, let 'em scream, let 'em spin We already kicked the door in, now we're not going back in [Chorus] I'm goin' down Better flare up a Mayday I'm goin' down today First I'm gonna belt out a Mayday Somebody get my ass out of here Flares out Bails out I won't be crashing here You fuckin' crazy I'm goin' down Better flare up a Mayday I'm goin' down today First I'm gonna belt out a Mayday Somebody get my ass out of here Flares out Bails out I won't be crashing here You fuckin' crazy [Verse 3] Redline on the dash Got the cup half gone Chrome on the grille And the bass hit hard Phone keeps buzzing But I let it slide If it ain't about motion Then it can wait outside Got a stack of receipts And a dent in the door Little scars on the ride Mean it wants more We pull up loud Then we pull off clean Leave a little dust where the whole thing's mean [Hook] Tail out the driveway, let it ring out One hand on the wheel, one foot out If the dash start blinking, we don't back off We just keep it moving when the road gets rough [Verse 4] My boots on the mat My keys in hand One eye on the exit One on the band If the floor starts shaking Then we shake with it No stiff little pose We just stay in it Got a bad little grin And a full tank still Pockets full of change But the vibe stay real When the room gets tight We don't fold up neat We just cut a new lane with the heat [Hook] Tail out the driveway, let it ring out One hand on the wheel, one foot out If the dash start blinking, we don't back off We just keep it moving when the road gets rough [Verse 5] I know the crew got scars But they wear 'em proud Laugh too hard Loud enough to shake the crowd No one here asks twice When the bill come due We split it down the middle Then we bust on through I got a cheap motel light And a half-bad plan Still make it look good With a shake in the hand If the whole thing's sinking Then hand me the rope I'm already halfway out Still built on hope [Hook] Tail out the driveway, let it ring out One hand on the wheel, one foot out If the dash start blinking, we don't back off We just keep it moving when the road gets rough [Verse 6] Last call on the radio Static in the wire We don't pray for mercy We just fuel the fire Got a map full of coffee stains And a head full of noise Still find the way home With the engine voice If the warning keeps flashing Let it flash all day I been born for the skid And the sideways sway So when it all goes black I'll still say plain Fire that flare I'm already off the chain [Outro] Engines cooling, but the room still shakes We left the mark for the morning shift If they ask where we went, tell 'em we broke the pace Now roll that tape, let the black box drift I'm goin' down, yeah, but not alone Turn that siren up, let the whole block know I threw the flare and I held the wheel If this is the end, then that's the deal
