Chains on the ground, speed square in the sky

[Intro] Signed up in the dust in 2010 Never said a word Fifteen years of silence Then the world hit hard [Verse 1] March 30th, twenty-six, dead stop on the line Four-point-one from Raleigh, machine doing fine Somebody else was looking down I paid for it with my mind Drove that broken Model 3 the rest of the way Neck brace, split-open head, light that wouldn’t stay They wrote it like a fender-bender It rewired the whole damn day [Pre-Chorus] Healthcare wrote a number The truck wrote a name [Chorus] Put it in Healing Mode Cash on the hood, nobody holds the title but me Stainless toaster in the driveway That’s the only therapy Chains on the ground, speed square in the sky Baking so the ones I love can rise I will be a small light Burning on the road [Verse 2] April 28 they handed me a loaner like a joke Ugly as a weapon till it carried what I broke She didn’t walk out on me When walking out was earned Four kids in the rearview That’s why the man returned [Pre-Chorus] I used to think I was iron Turns out I was toast [Chorus] Put it in Healing Mode Cash on the hood, nobody holds the title but me Stainless toaster in the driveway That’s the only therapy Chains on the ground, speed square in the sky Baking so the ones I love can rise I will be a small light Burning on the road [Bridge] I never wanted the book Till the wreck made me look Now I draw the verses So the little ones can see Accountability in progress Being nice still cuts We got work to do Godspeed — get up [Breakdown] FOB with bad internet Account that never spoke Wreck at a dead stop Then the toaster woke [Final Chorus] Put it in Healing Mode The account woke up, the man did too From a FOB with bad internet To a light I didn’t choose Chains on the ground, flag in the wind Family at the end of the drive Baking so others can rise I will be a small light Burning on the road [Outro] Issue twenty-three The accountable light Sometimes you’re just toast Fight anyway
