Hook:
Running with switches, nights cold, heart colder, yeah (yeah)
Tape up my feelings, winter in my shoulders, yeah (hold up)
Loyalty cost me, love lost to the boulders, yeah (woo)
Running with switches, demons in my folder, yeah
Verse 1:
Came up from corners where the street light flicker slow,
Mama prayin' nightly, told me don’t let that cold grow.
Brothers moved silent, some went and never came back,
Phone calls in the night, I learn how to stay strapped.
I got scars in my denim, pain stitched to every seam,
Seen the hollow eyes of a dream caught up in the scheme.
Runnin' with switches just to feel like I’m safe,
But safety come with iron—that iron got taste.
Told myself I’d change when the money come right,
But demons whisper lullabies in the dead of night.
I pour up my sorrow, toast to the ones who fell,
Counting all these blessings but the nights still smell like hell.

Verse 2:
Opps on the corner sellin' rumors like a Sunday news,
Everybody got an angle, everybody got a bruise.
We move quiet, low beams, pray the radar don’t catch,
One wrong smile, that same street blow a match.
I done buried a couple, put my hand over eyes,
Promise to the pavement, I ain’t sayin’ no goodbyes.
Switch heavy in the trunk, but the weight ain't gun metal,
It’s the weight of the nights when hope slipped like a kettle.
Love left in the backseat, she said she tired of my fears,
Said she can’t raise a baby with a soundtrack of tears.
I called her back days later, static, phone cut—gone,
Left me counting heartbeats to a hollow rap song.

Verse 3:
Money in the sneakers, but the soul still runnin' thin,
Friends turn to rivals, now the same blood spill for wins.
I seen a smile flip sideways like a switchblade grin,
Trust me, loyalty a currency that rarely pays in.
Every hallway echo feel like a courtroom case,
Eyes watchin' corners, hearts racin' like they chase.
Pray for peace but I train for war, it’s a paradox,
Devil wearin' Armani, angels lost in the blocks.
My oldest homie told me, "Boy, you gotta let it go,"
But the streets taught me lessons that I don’t even know.
So I run with the switches, not cause I love the sound,
But cause when the night get heavy it keep the wolves out the town.
