[Intro]
Heart cold
Hands burned
Lessons learned
Bridges turned
[Verse 1]
I was raised where the floorboards creak
Where the landlord smile got wolf-size teeth
Where the pastor pray but the stash stay deep
And the choir sing over sirens in the street (woo)
Every promise that they made? Cheap plastic
Every scar on my name? Gymnastics
I been bending over backward for the mad tricks
Cut rope, now I’m back with the matches
Too sharp, whole tongue like glass
Every word that I spit, cut past
Every fake little friend from the past
Get a verse, that’s a hearse, that’s that
I don’t brag, I just drag my baggage
Turn trauma to a tongue full of daggers
Turn panic to a plan, then I map it
Turn pain into paint on a canvas
[Chorus]
I put my teeth in the track, let it bleed when I snap
Every bar got a crack, every line leave a scratch (yeah)
All that talk in your throat, I don’t hear none of that
’Cause I lived what I rap, you just tweet where you at
I put my teeth in the track, rip the beat like a wrap
Every wound on my back, that’s the reason I’m tapped (let’s go)
All that noise, all that bark, you just bite on the cap
I put my teeth in the track, I put my teeth in the track
[Verse 2]
Switch pace, I’m a glitch in the mainframe
Quick change, whole lane in a heatwave
Wrist vein, ink stain on the notepage
Blood boil every time that the beat play
Talk heavy, but I walk with the limp
’Cause the weight on my soul never light, it imprint
I been fighting my reflection since a kid in the crib
Now the mirror look away when I tighten my grip (ha)
You want views? I want closure
You want clout? I want composure
You want likes, little dopamine doses
I want truth till it bruise both shoulders
Half-time now, let the rage breathe slow
All this hurt in my chest got a barcode
Scan that, you gon’ see where the heart go
Dark road, but I drove with the cargo
[Chorus]
I put my teeth in the track, let it bleed when I snap
Every bar got a crack, every line leave a scratch (oh yeah)
All that talk in your throat, I don’t hear none of that
’Cause I lived what I rap, you just tweet where you at
I put my teeth in the track, rip the beat like a wrap
Every wound on my back, that’s the reason I’m tapped
All that noise, all that bark, you just bite on the cap
I put my teeth in the track, I put my teeth in the track
[Bridge]
If I fall, I fall forward, fist first to the floor
If I crawl, I crawl toward it, same fight as before
If I starve, I’ll still gorge on the grief and the war
’Cause I learned how to feast on the fear I ignore (yeah)
[Chorus]
I put my teeth in the track, let it bleed when I snap
Every bar got a crack, every line leave a scratch
All that talk in your throat, I don’t hear none of that
’Cause I lived what I rap, you just tweet where you at
I put my teeth in the track, rip the beat like a wrap
Every wound on my back, that’s the reason I’m tapped
All that noise, all that bark, you just bite on the cap
I put my teeth in the track, I put my teeth in the track (teeth in the track)
