Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Born broke, but I talk rich
Hand-me-downs, but my talk slick
Mama said, "Boy, don't you start shit"
I came home late, knuckles split
Ashtray full, plans on the dresser
Whole block pray, still under pressure
Homies got ghosts in they glove compartment
Ride slow, heart cold like apartments
I was that kid with the Walkman bleedin'
Screamin' in my ears, made sense of the beatin'
Step-pop swing, I ducked in the kitchen
Learned how to slip every hit, every sentence
[Chorus]
I’m just a shadow in my rearview
Tryna outrun what I been through
Got my sins on the seat like a passenger
They say "change," but the past still after ya
I’m just a shadow in my rearview
Every wrong turn still feels new
If I crash on this road I was built for it
If I live one more day I’ma kill for it (oh yeah)
[Verse 2]
Whole lotta pain in this plain white tee
Whole lotta rage in this fake ID
Ten toes down on a one-way street
Either make that play or you don't eat
Cousin got a stripe, but he lost his soul
Tattoo tears, never cried when it got cold
I seen men fold for a quick lil favor
Brown paper bag, turned friend to a stranger
West side sun made the chrome look holy
Flag in his pocket, but he still died lonely
Judge gave time like it wasn't his life
Clock on the wall, tick loud like a knife
[Chorus]
I’m just a shadow in my rearview
Tryna outrun what I been through
Got my sins on the seat like a passenger
They say "change," but the past still after ya
I’m just a shadow in my rearview
Every wrong turn still feels new
If I crash on this road I was built for it
If I live one more day I’ma kill for it (woah)
[Bridge]
All these voices in my head sound like family fights
One say, "Pray," one say, "Play with your life"
One say, "Drive slow," one say, "Floor it tonight"
I let the streetlights pick which side is right
If heaven got a hood, hope they save me a spot
If hell got a view, bet it look like the block
I ain’t holy, but I’m holdin’ on strong
If I’m gone by the morning, let ’em play this song (yeah)
[Chorus]
I’m just a shadow in my rearview
Tryna outrun what I been through
Got my sins on the seat like a passenger
They say "change," but the past still after ya
I’m just a shadow in my rearview
Every wrong turn still feels new
If I crash on this road I was built for it
If I live one more day I’ma kill for it (oh yeah)
