[Verse 1]
I came in quiet,
black coat, red eyes
Keys in my palm,
ice in my mind
Piano taps once,
then it lets go
I walk past smoke
like I own both roads
She like my stare,
too cold, too clean
I keep it low,
but I move like a scene
He talk big game,
I don't need that
One wrong move,
and the room goes flat
[Pre-Chorus]
Wait for it
Hold that breath
I bend the night
Then I break what's left
Closer now
Hear that snap
One more step
Then I cut it back
[Chorus]
Vetri neri, vetri neri
I don't look back, I don't look back
Vetri neri, vetri neri
All this weight, but I keep it black
Vetri neri, vetri neri
Say my name, then the door shuts fast
Vetri neri, vetri neri
If I move, I don't move half
[Verse 2]
Got a cold grin
and a warm threat
Small-town rage
in a new vest
Money don't heal,
it just stacks up
I learned that pain
can dress that up
She want truth,
I give scars
I been real
since the first dark bar
No soft touch,
no sweet talk
Only hard steps
on a cracked walk
[Pre-Chorus]
Wait for it
Hold that breath
I bend the night
Then I break what's left
Closer now
Hear that snap
One more step
Then I cut it back
[Chorus]
Vetri neri, vetri neri
I don't look back, I don't look back
Vetri neri, vetri neri
All this weight, but I keep it black
Vetri neri, vetri neri
Say my name, then the door shuts fast
Vetri neri, vetri neri
If I move, I don't move half
[Bridge]
Bare floor, bare light
Just me and the hush
One long breath
Then the whole room rush
No disguise,
I been this way
Sharp in the dark
Till the end of day
[Final Chorus]
Vetri neri, vetri neri
I don't look back, I don't look back
Vetri neri, vetri neri
All this weight, but I keep it black
Vetri neri, vetri neri
Say my name, then the door shuts fast
Vetri neri, vetri neri
If I move, I don't move half
