[Verse 1]
Blood on my white tee
You keep blowin’ up my phone
Baby mom at the front door yellin’
“Where you been? You ain’t come home”
Gunpowder on my conscience
Hands shakin’ while I twist this smoke
You askin’ why I’m breathin’ heavy
I just laugh it off like it’s a joke
[Chorus]
Backseat alibis
I’ve been livin’ in these lies
You say “tell me where you were”
I just stare and improvise
All this fightin’ in the kitchen
All these visions in my eyes
You want a father for that child
I’m just married to the crime
Backseat alibis
Backseat alibis
[Verse 2]
You throw plates, I dodge questions
You say “he needs a better man”
I see bottles on the carpet
Tiny shoes by the TV stand
Our boy sleepin’ in the bedroom
While we spit venom in the hall
You say “one day he’ll be just like you”
That line cut deeper than them all
[Chorus]
Backseat alibis
I’ve been livin’ in these lies
You say “tell me where you were”
I just stare and improvise
All this fightin’ in the kitchen
All these visions in my eyes
You want a father for that child
I’m just married to the crime
Backseat alibis
Backseat alibis
[Bridge]
Sirens in my skull again (woah)
You hold his hand, you shut the door
Say “choose us or choose that life”
My silence answers you once more
[Chorus]
Backseat alibis
I’ve been livin’ in these lies
You say “tell me where you were”
I just stare and improvise
All this fightin’ in the kitchen
All these visions in my eyes
You want a father for that child
I’m just married to the crime
Backseat alibis
Backseat alibis
