[Intro] Head full of thunder Hands still empty Idea so vivid It almost tempted me [Verse 1] Saw it in color Sharp like a knife edge Whole blueprint blazing Right on the mind’s ledge Heart said “jump” But my skills said “maybe” Pages stayed blank Vision still crazy So I swung at the dark, [harmonica lick] Little off rhythm, little off mark Every small miss put a chip in the wall Brick by brick till I saw that spark [Chorus] Rapid fire, I keep on shooting Click, reload, the dream still moving I can see it clear in my skull like a movie Had to learn the code just to make it true-y Level up, level up, over and over Fail on my face, then I walk in bolder Didn’t know how, but I know I will Till the picture in my head turns real [Verse 2] Violin crying Soft under my breath Every wrong turn Still carving a step Every “not yet” Still closer than “never” Every late night Put a notch on the lever Turned every question Into one more try Turned every stumble To a stairway high I was broke on skill But I paid in time Till my hands caught up To my hungry mind [Chorus] Rapid fire, I keep on shooting Click, reload, the dream still moving I can see it clear in my skull like a movie Had to learn the code just to make it true-y Level up, level up, over and over Fail on my face, then I walk in bolder Didn’t know how, but I know I will Till the picture in my head turns real [Bridge] [low vocal register] Every “not yet” Turned to “I’m close” Every small crack Let the light expose What I didn’t know then Now lives in my bones I was building a language To speak my own goals [guitar solo with harmonica answering] [Chorus] Rapid fire, I keep on shooting Click, reload, the dream still moving I can see it clear in my skull like a movie Had to learn the code just to make it true-y Level up, level up, over and over Fail on my face, then I walk in bolder Didn’t know how, but I know I will Till the picture in my head turns real
