Verse 1
Yeah the night gets loud on the boulevard
Neon dreams and broken hearts
Everybody chasing something quick
Trying to feel alive just for a bit
I’ve seen the highs, I’ve felt the lows
Watched good souls lose control
But I learned early what I need
A steady fire, not gasoline
Pre-Chorus
I don’t need white lines to feel alright
Don’t need a fast lane just to feel alive
I’ve been down that road, yeah I’ve seen that show
But that ain’t the way I wanna go
Chorus
No cocaine in my veins tonight
Just love and truth in a clear mind
I get my buzz from serving souls
From lifted hands and hearts made whole
No cocaine, no artificial high
I’m high on hope, yeah I’m high on life
Only love in my veins tonight
Only love in my veins
Verse 2
I’ve watched the sunrise over second chances
Shared hot meals, cold nights, brave advances
Seen a spark light up a tired face
When dignity walks back into place
You can keep the powder, keep the pills
I’ve seen what real freedom builds
It’s in the work, it’s in the fight
It’s in choosing love every night
Pre-Chorus
I don’t need shortcuts to feel strong
Don’t need escape just to move along
I’ve felt the weight, I’ve carried pain
But I won’t numb it out again
Chorus
No cocaine in my veins tonight
Just love and truth in a clear mind
I get my buzz from serving souls
From lifted hands and hearts made whole
No cocaine, no artificial high
I’m high on hope, yeah I’m high on life
Only love in my veins tonight
Only love in my veins
Bridge (half-time, dubby feel)
Yeah—
Give me faith when the road gets long
Give me grace when I get it wrong
Give me people who won’t let go
When the storm hits hard and slow
I don’t want numb, I want awake
I don’t want fake, I want real stakes
If I’m gonna bleed, let it be love
If I’m gonna rise, lift me up
Chorus (Lifted / Gang Vocals)
No cocaine in my veins tonight
We’re high on love in the firelight
From the kitchen line to the city streets
We’re feeding hope to the hungry beat
No cocaine, we don’t need that high
We’re high on purpose, high on life
Only love in our veins tonight
Only love in our veins
Outro
Yeah the world keeps selling shortcuts and smoke
But I found truth in the meals we broke
If this is a high, let it never fade
Only love in my veins—
Only love…
