[Verse] Cut the lock, let it breathe Fuel line singing underneath Maps on the dash, no time to sleep Headlights gone, but the block still reads Spotter on the corner, two taps, go Crowd on the curb like they already know Engine growls when I bury that toe One town gone in a redline glow [Pre-Chorus] Channel six, say the word “Clear on the south, still heard” Static crack, then the next one hits “Eastbound move, make it quick” [Chorus] Cannonball run, cannonball run Hit and move, then we’re already done Crowd goes wild when the tires scream Cannonball run, we live that dream Cannonball run, cannonball run From one street light to the rising sun Hold that line, don’t let it stall Cannonball run, we take it all [Verse] Gas station halo, quick handoff Paper cups, one glance, then we’re off Spotter says “bridge is clean,” “keep low” Another crew gone in a burnout show Back roads bend like they’re built for flight Chain-link flashes in the dead of night Every exit has a silent prayer We don’t stay long, we’re never there [Pre-Chorus] Channel nine, hear the call “Unit two, they just slipped the wall” Static burst, then the crowd pulls in “Black car north, let them begin” [Chorus] Cannonball run, cannonball run Hit and move, then we’re already done Crowd goes wild when the tires scream Cannonball run, we live that dream Cannonball run, cannonball run From one street light to the rising sun Hold that line, don’t let it stall Cannonball run, we take it all [Verse] Downtown bend with the market crowd Hands in the air, they’re cheering loud Spotter on the roof with a glowing cue “Two blocks clear, they’re looking through” Rumble hits like a subway quake Glass in the windows starts to shake Boys in blue with the blue and white But all they see is our brake lights [Bridge] CB crackles, “Say your name” “Cut the west side, switch that lane” “Ten-four, ten-four, keep it tight” “Copy that, we’re outta sight” Static tears, then a long pause One deep breath, one hard cause Crowd chant rising from the curbside mass “Go! Go! Go!” as the pack comes past Heat on the mirror, smoke on the ground One wrong move and the whole thing’s down “Turn now, turn now” in the dark Then the engine hits like a livewire spark [Chorus] Cannonball run, cannonball run Hit and move, then we’re already done Crowd goes wild when the tires scream Cannonball run, we live that dream Cannonball run, cannonball run From one street light to the rising sun Hold that line, don’t let it stall Cannonball run, we take it all [Outro] Cannonball run Cannonball run Radio’s hot and the crowd won’t stun Cannonball run Cannonball run One last roar and we’re gone with the sun
