[Verse 1]
Engine growl, heart heavy, lanes wide
Shifting gears, but can’t shift the tide
He was shotgun, co-pilot in my ride
Now it’s empty silence, my shadow beside
Wrench in my chest, pits full of smoke
Memories hit, throttle’s no joke
Race track's an altar, prayers I spoke
Hoping he’d hear through the engines I stoke
[Chorus]
Ghost in the passenger seat, riding with me
First place dreams, one day he’ll see
Trophy in hand, tears set free
Ghost in the passenger seat, forever we’ll be
[Verse 2]
Divorce papers split, but it cut my soul
Family fractured, left a gaping hole
Didn’t sign up for this, took its toll
But on this track, I’m chasing control
Tires scream, echoes of his laugh
Fuel burns hot, reliving the past
Every lap a wish, time moves fast
But the finish line feels like it’ll last
[Pre-Chorus]
Would he be proud? Would he even stay?
Could I rewind? Replay the day?
Questions pile, but I drive away
