I text back, "Yeah, in a minute or so" Then I hear that bass through the wall Put my jacket down, make one more call Not to anyone, just to the track Hit that button and I take it back [Pre-Chorus - Rising Melodic Phrasing] One more count One more try Something's clicking This time Feel that kick Feel that snare Now I know I'm getting there [Chorus - Punchy Melodic Hip-Hop] Second gear, second gear Feel it catch, now it's crystal clear One step forward, one step back Then the whole thing falls on track Second gear, second gear Getting stronger every time I hear That bass hit right beneath my feet Now I'm moving with the beat Second gear Oh, second gear I can feel it coming together here [Post-Chorus - Addictive Rhythmic Hook] Shift-shift Click-clack Step in Snap back Shift-shift Click-clack One more Like that [Verse 2 - Fast Syncopated Rap, Heavier Bass] Now I'm marking every little turn Found a couple things I had to unlearn Used to rush through the hardest part Now I let the snare tell me where to start Heel to the left, shoulders to the right Catch that break and the timing's tight Not quite perfect, but it's getting close Funny how the small things matter most 한 번 더, 멈추지 않아 발끝이 박자를 찾아 숨을 고르고 다시 이번엔 제대로 맞아 One-two-three, let it breathe Feel the kick underneath Four-five-six, turn around Seven-eight, lock it down That little move I couldn't make Finally clicks on the next take I start laughing at myself Like, why was that so hard anyway?
