[Verse 1]
Helmet down
Dust in my teeth
Front wheel flirting
With the edge beneath
Numbers blinking
Red on my dash
Every second
Feels like it might crash
[Pre-Chorus]
Heart kicks faster than the motor (hey!)
Cold wind cutting through the roar
If I don’t make it past this corner
They’ll lock my story at the start line forever
[Chorus]
Racing the canyon
Racing the clock
Stone walls closing
I don’t back off
If I’m gonna break
Then let me break loud
Either I fly or I burn it all down
Racing the canyon
Racing the time
White knuckles holding that thin
Thin line
If I’m gonna lose
I’ll lose in flames
Canyon against the clock
Remember my name (oh yeah)
[Verse 2]
Sun’s a laser
Right in my eyes
Shadows jump
Like they’re alive
Tire track snakes
Through the gravel and shale
One wrong lean
And that’s my trail
[Pre-Chorus]
Fear sits heavy on my shoulder
Can’t let panic steer the bar
If I hesitate
It’s over
So I lean in harder
Aim for the stars
[Chorus]
Racing the canyon
Racing the clock
Stone walls closing
I don’t back off
If I’m gonna break
Then let me break loud
Either I fly or I burn it all down
Racing the canyon
Racing the time
White knuckles holding that thin
Thin line
If I’m gonna lose
I’ll lose in flames
Canyon against the clock
Remember my name (woah)
[Bridge]
What if this turn
Is the one that defines me?
What if that drop
Is the price of the dream?
I’d rather fall
Than keep wondering nightly
So I twist
I lean
And I let it all scream (hey!)
[Chorus]
Racing the canyon
Racing the clock
Stone walls closing
I don’t back off
If I’m gonna break
Then let me break loud
Either I fly or I burn it all down
Racing the canyon
Racing the time
White knuckles holding that thin
Thin line
If I’m gonna lose
I’ll lose in flames
Canyon against the clock
Remember my name
