Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Starlight on the armor plate
Dust ghosts in the armored grate
Green eyes in the AN/PVS
See the world in that ghost-lit haze
Route Michigan, Ramadi grid
Dead air on the radio, lips stay zipped
Light step through a doorway, slow
Every stairwell feels like it could blow
Manchu patch on the shoulder seam
Sweat salt burning in the camo seams
M240 on the window rail
Brass rain, hot hate, soft pale
Combat fatigue in the cartilage
Can’t scrub out what the optics did
Night raids got me sleepin’ wrong
Every quiet room feels way too loud
[Chorus]
Night run, Route Michigan, breath held tight
Green eyes glowing in the blackout sight
Light feet, heavy heart in the concrete fight
I been livin’ in the crosshairs night after night (yeah)
Steel rain speakin’ when the doubts get loud
.50 sang dirges to the angry crowd
If I make it to the sunrise, say it out loud
But I’m married to the shadows, I don’t stand proud (nah)
[Verse 2]
Sand grit in the teeth, dry spit
Fingers on the safety like a nervous tick
Friend or foe, silhouette split
Every rooftop edge feel slick
Manchus in the alleys, hand signs flash
Boot splash in a broken glass bath
Kick door, light flood, lungs crash
Baby in a blanket in the muzzle flash
Chain fire when the trucks get pinned
Tracer arcs carving through the wind
Call sign barkin’ in a static spin
You can’t pray right when the walls cave in
After-action on a plastic chair
Stare through the paper like it’s not there
Purpled sky in the chow line air
I left parts of me in that thousand-yard stare
[Chorus]
Night run, Route Michigan, breath held tight
Green eyes glowing in the blackout sight
Light feet, heavy heart in the concrete fight
I been livin’ in the crosshairs night after night (woo)
Steel rain speakin’ when the doubts get loud
.50 sang dirges to the angry crowd
If I make it to the sunrise, say it out loud
But I’m married to the shadows, I don’t stand proud
[Bridge]
Head nod to the names that ain’t come home
Dog tags swing where the ghosts still roam
We were kids with the weight of a broken zone
Now we carry every echo in the marrow and bone (yeah)
[Chorus]
Night run, Route Michigan, breath held tight
Green eyes glowing in the blackout sight
Light feet, heavy heart in the concrete fight
I been livin’ in the crosshairs night after night
Steel rain speakin’ when the doubts get loud
.50 sang dirges to the angry crowd
If I make it to the sunrise, say it out loud
But I’m married to the shadows, I don’t stand proud (Manchu)

rap, Dark cinematic trap-rap beat, 140 BPM, heavy sub-bass and skittering hi-hats. Sparse bell plucks in the verses with filtered drums; hook explodes with layered male vocals, distorted 808 glides, and wide synth pads. Ad-libs tucked back in the mix, occasional gunmetal FX swells and reverse cymbals for tension, then a final drop to half-time for the outro., light
