Chrome vs Code

Bucket seats

seatbelt squeak

rust on the frame

but the soul run deep

Gramps in the driveway

cussin’ that choke

Foot on the gas

whole house in smoke

Windows crank

wrist get strong

Radio fade

but we still sing along

Check engine light?

Man, that’s just Tuesday

Kick that door twice

we back on the thruway

Old cars vs new cars

which one really get you far

One got creaks

but a heart like a star

One got screens

that be talkin’ to the car

I want steel in a storm

not just code in a jar

Old cars vs new cars

one smell like dust and tar

Other park itself

while you scroll on your phone

But the beat in my chest

like a V8 tone (yeah)

New whip talk back

“Stay in your lane”

Glow in the dash

like a video game

Heated seats, three modes

you can change the rain

But you tradein’ your gut

for a guided brain

Old ride stallin’

but we learned patience

Busted odometer

still took vacations

Every mile a story

scratched in the paint

Every dent say

“Kid, you ain’t made of glass, you ain’t”

Old cars vs new cars

which one really get you far

One got creaks

but a heart like a star

One got screens

that be talkin’ to the car

I want steel in a storm

not just code in a jar

Old cars vs new cars

can’t judge from afar

You can whisper with wires

or you roar with the chrome

Either way it’s the ride

that gon’ get you home (hey)
