erse 1]
Clock ticks slow in a dead-end job
Fake smiles, fake talk, fake boss, fake nod
I’d rather be home with a cat on my chest
People talk shit, animals are the best
Dreamin’ ‘bout a beach and the engine’s roar
Sunburn, salt air, I don’t need more
Got a cold drink sweatin’ in my hand
And a ‘68 Camaro like a promised land
[Pre-Chorus]
Yeah I keep my circle tight, small and true
One ride or die and she knows I’d come through
You start a fire, I’ll bring the flame
You hurt my people, remember my name
[Chorus]
I don’t need you, I got my tribe
My cat, my car, and my ride or die
Rock show lights and a midnight run
Steel and thunder and a V8 gun
Margarita sky, toes in the sand
Middle finger up, yeah this is who I am
If loving this life makes me a misfit kid
Then crank it up loud — I was born for this
[Verse 2]
Lunch break scrolling looking at chrome
Horsepower dreams get me through the slow
Men talk big but they fade away
I trust a small block more any day
Nap time queen with a wild heart soul
French fries, loud guitars, never getting old
I don’t start fights but I damn sure end
When it comes to my girl, I defend my friend
[Pre-Chorus]
Yeah we roll like thunder, no looking back
Two wild hearts and a full tank of gas
You draw a line, I cross that line
For the ones I love every damn time
[Chorus]
I don’t need you, I got my tribe
My cat, my car, and my ride or die
Rock show lights and a midnight run
Steel and thunder and a V8 gun
Margarita sky, toes in the sand
‘68 Camaro and a rock n’ roll band
This is my life and I’ll live how I live
One wild heart and a whole lotta give
[Bridge]
Someday soon I’ll be gone from here
Beach town sun and a second gear
Engine humming like a freedom song
All the bullshit in the past where it belongs
[Outro]
Chrome shining in the setting sun
Engine off but I’m still on the run
From a life I never wanted to live…
Turn the key — and forgive nothing.
