[Verse 1]
Pulled up slow, got my hopes up high
A green one blinked, then it changed its mind
I swear it saw me through the windshield glare
Hit that red like it was waiting there
I roll to the line, it locks me in
Like a tiny curse with a traffic grin
Every other car gets a passing lane
Me? I get the same old stop again
[Pre-Chorus]
You can call it fate
You can call it luck
But every time I move
The whole world shuts up
[Chorus]
Red light magnet, that's me
(red light magnet)
Turn one mile into a luxury
(red light magnet)
I pull up and it goes, "Not today"
I pull up and it flips that way
Red light magnet, that's me
(red light magnet)
[Verse 2]
At the corner store with a bag of fries
Dog in the back and a tired disguise
Even the bus got a front-row show
When my taillights fade, the signal glows
Left my house with a clean clear route
Ten minutes later, I'm circling out
Sunset lane and a perfect run
Then I show up, and the green light's done
[Pre-Chorus]
I don't need a charm
I don't need a plan
That little box on the pole
Just knows who I am
[Chorus]
Red light magnet, that's me
(red light magnet)
Turn one mile into a luxury
(red light magnet)
I pull up and it goes, "Not today"
I pull up and it flips that way
Red light magnet, that's me
(red light magnet)
[Bridge]
Maybe I got sparks in my shoes
Maybe the sky just likes to mess with me too
I wave at the camera, it waves back slow
Then boom, one more stop, one more no
[Final Chorus]
Red light magnet, that's me
(red light magnet)
Every road says, "Wait for me"
(red light magnet)
I pull up and it goes, "Not today"
I pull up and it flips that way
Red light magnet, that's me
(red light magnet)
