[Verse 1]
Got mud on my memories
Boot prints in my brain
One voice sayin’ “run, boy”
One say “stand in the flame”
I drink at the kitchen table
They argue in my jaw
One wanna forgive ‘em
One just want war
[Chorus]
It’s like I’m
Switchin’ seats in my head on a dirt road
One hand on the wheel, one losin’ control
Laughin’ at the pain, then I’m cryin’ in the same breath
Talkin’ like a stranger in my own chest
Who’s gonna drive when it all goes black?
Past in the rearview pullin’ me back
Switchin’ seats in my head on a dirt road
Tryna outrun what I can’t let go (yeah)
[Verse 2]
Sunday suit in the closet
Blood stain on the cuff
Good kid in a cracked frame
Still sayin’ “I’m tough”
One me wanna bow his head
One me load it up
One prayin’ for mercy
One don’t give a—
[Chorus]
So I keep
Switchin’ seats in my head on a dirt road
One hand on the wheel, one losin’ control
Laughin’ at the pain, then I’m cryin’ in the same breath
Talkin’ like a stranger in my own chest
Who’s gonna drive when it all goes black?
Past in the rearview pullin’ me back
Switchin’ seats in my head on a dirt road
Tryna outrun what I can’t let go (let go)
[Bridge]
[Beat drops to snaps and bass]
Which one am I today? (yeah)
Halo or the blade?
Mama, if you see me change
Just know I’m still that kid you raised
[Beat slams back in]
We all ride, same skull, same skin
Three ghosts in the cab, one body they in (uh)
[Chorus]
Switchin’ seats in my head on a dirt road
One hand on the wheel, one losin’ control
Laughin’ at the pain, then I’m cryin’ in the same breath
Talkin’ like a stranger in my own chest
Who’s gonna drive when it all goes black?
Past in the rearview pullin’ me back
Switchin’ seats in my head on a dirt road
Pray I make it home ‘fore I let go
