First In On The Fourth Due

[Intro]
Mask on
Gloves tight
Boots slam
Red light
[Verse 1]
First in on the fourth due
We roll when the rest just stare
Smoke thick in the rearview
Ash snow in the midnight air
Name tag on that bunker
Feels heavy but it fits like skin
If you ain’t first
You’re last here
So we kick that metal door in (hey!)
[Chorus]
If you ain’t first
You’re last
That’s the line we branded
On our hearts
On the glass
Where the sparks all landed
Run it back
Run it back
Till the lungs turn black
If you ain’t first
You’re last
And we’re never looking back
[Verse 2]
Hallway’s breathing fire
Ceiling dripping molten paint
Hearing someone screaming
Try to walk
Your courage faints
I count each breath I’m taking
Each step closer to the sound
Fear’s a ghost that grabs your collar
I drag it through the burning ground (oh!)
[Chorus]
If you ain’t first
You’re last
That’s the vow we’re holding
In the flash
In the blast
When the roof is folding
Run it back
Run it back
Till the beams all crack
If you ain’t first
You’re last
And we’re never turning back
[Bridge]
Sirens sing in a death march key
Every call could be the one for me
But I’d rather die on the front line floor
Than live with my boots by the door
So tag my gear
If I fall in flame
Write this phrase under my name
[Chorus]
If you ain’t first
You’re last
Cut it deep in granite
On the wall
On the brass
Let the next ones chant it
Run it back
Run it back
Till the world fades black
If you ain’t first
You’re last
And we’re never coming back
