[Intro]
Red light on
Door locked
Black walls breathe
My heart knocks
[Verse 1]
Hood up in the booth
I’m a shadow
Ink on my hands from the battle
Click-clack cursor like ammo
Line after line
Watch ’em stagger
Dark in the glass
That reflection
Old me buried in the wreckage
Ash on my jacket
It’s fashion
Rising from the crash like an assassin
[Chorus]
Level up
When the bass goes boom
I’m a problem
From the rubble to the roof
Yeah I got ’em (got ’em)
All these targets on my back
Then I drop ’em
I’m an assassin in the spotlight
Level up
Every scar on my skin is a medal
Turn the darkness in my head to a weapon
Got the whole room hanging on a sentence
I’m an assassin in the spotlight
[Verse 2]
She in all black with the winged liner
Lip print on a cracked lighter
Moves like she’s born in the crossfire
Every step
Little crime
Little wildfire
Two drinks
Then she’s reading my damage
Says
“You look like you live in the static”
Pulls me close
Says she loves how I vanish
Kiss on my neck
Whisper
“Handle this”
[Pre-Chorus]
We don’t flinch when the floor starts shaking
We don’t blink when the past starts chasing
From the dust
From the dirt
From the break-in
Every wound that we earned
We embrace it
[Chorus]
Level up
When the bass goes boom
I’m a problem
From the rubble to the roof
Yeah I got ’em (got ’em)
All these targets on my back
Then I drop ’em
I’m an assassin in the spotlight
Level up
Every scar on my skin is a medal
Turn the darkness in my head to a weapon
Got the whole room hanging on a sentence
I’m an assassin in the spotlight
[Bridge]
Dark room
Red glow
[whispered vocals] “don’t breathe”
Eyes closed
Feel the floor underneath
One shot
Take aim at the ceiling
We the ones that they fear when they’re dreaming
Hands up
Bodies jump
Then freeze
Beat cuts
Hear the rush
Then scream
We were buried in the dust last season
Now we’re standing on the cracks
Still breathing
[Chorus]
