(Intro) (Heavy 808 sub kicks in, ticking hi-hats start pacing) Yeah... stuck in L-Ville since Wednesday, man. Reefer box trippin', trying to keep the load cold. Five degrees Celsius, FedEx on my throat. Now I'm in a spaceship? Let’s see what it do... but I’m keeping receipts. (Verse 1 - The Truck & The Brain) (Double-time rap - fast, rhythmic flow) Two times in Phoenix replacing the pieces, the temp isn't holding, the pressure increases They pulling the micro, the brain of the trailer, a three-thousand dollar electronic failure I'm asking the tech what he make by the hour, a buck-eighty labor for digital power Nine new tires on the rims and we rollin', the tenth one is fresh but the schedule is broken Windshield is split into two on the front, glass guy is late, now we changing the stunt Hertz on the line and they handing the keys, no gas in the tank but it’s ready to please A Polestar 2, never done it before, Swedish design when I step through the door Angie in love with the tech in the dash, I step on the pedal, it’s instant, it’s flash! (Hook) (Melodic, driving dance groove) Smooth, quiet, heavy on the kick Surprised by the power when the battery click But the patience wears out when the numbers go down We just hunting for juice on the edge of the town Is it worth the hype? I don't really know Got a long way to travel, got a short way to go. (Verse 2 - The Charging Grind) (Double-time rap - building frustration) Heading down to Chamblee for four hours of sleep, Orlando the destination we keep But a full charge is hundred, we stopping at ninety, the wait time is crazy, the infrastructure tiny Two-hundred and fifty the max on the miles, forty-five minutes, removing our smiles Hyper-fast charging, three-hundred-and-fifty kilowatts heavy, this lifestyle ain't thrifty Walmart in Cordele, we sitting and stressing, Electrify America keeping us guessing Chamblee last night was a slower power station, sixteen dollars for local frustration Only seventy-eight percent after four hours? Man, I’m questioning these superpower towers. (Hook) (Melodic, driving dance groove) Smooth, quiet, heavy on the kick Surprised by the power when the battery click But the patience wears out when the numbers go down We just hunting for juice on the edge of the town Is it worth the hype? I don't really know Got a long way to travel, got a short way to go. (Verse 3 - The Math & The Myth) (Double-time rap - sharp, analytical flow) First stop was GM, way south of the city, forty-four dollars, the pricing ain't pretty Last choice option, remember the lesson, next stop was twenty-four, less of a compression Eighteen to eighty, one-eighty in range, over a hundred bucks total, the pricing is strange Four stops deep and we need one more, local it’s fine but a trip is a chore Rented a Prius a long time ago, stopped at the light and the engine went low Felt like it died, but today it’s a game, Marilee looking at Tesla the same Auto-drive feature, she want the illusion, three-hundred miles then you back to confusion Need a charger at home if you buyin' the brand, 'cause three hundred kilowatts hard to command. (Bridge) (Beat drops to just the 808 and a ticking clock sound) At the Walmart now... checking the plugs. Angie got the app, no more dealing with thugs. Seven dollars a month gets the discount rate, Thirty-eight cents instead of sixty-eight. Grabbed the blue handle, but the port didn't fit, That’s for older Nissan Leafs, we don’t match with it. The car looks good, yeah, the style is clean... But it's a lot of damn work for a machine. (Hook) (Full beat explodes back in, maximum energy) Smooth, quiet, heavy on the kick Surprised by the power when the battery click But the patience wears out when the numbers go down We just hunting for juice on the edge of the town Is it worth the hype? I don't really know Got a long way to travel, got a short way to go. (Outro) (Beat starts to slow down, 808s fading) Yeah. Polestar 2. Fun to drive? Absolutely. Would I do this again on a road trip? Nah. Keep it local. Shorter trips only. Peace. (Final heavy 808 thump, echo out)
