[Intro]
Top of the world
Middle finger to the past
Windows down, ash flyin’
Engine laugh, tank half
[Verse 1]
Clear skies, cracked dash
Seat ripped, still cash
Old scars, new laugh
Pulled up from the whiplash
Ridin’ with the best of my ghosts
They ain’t gone, they just live in my jokes
Every dent, every fight, every long dark night
Now it’s all slow-mo smoke in the glow of the light
Burnt tape on the floor
Same song that we played at the store
When they kicked us out, said we’d end up dead
Now I’m loud, now I’m proud, see the crown on my head (yeah)
[Chorus]
I’m on top of the world, motherfucker
Clear skies over everything I said
Ridin’ and smokin’, every mile gettin’ tougher
Best of memories dancin’ in my head
On top of the world, motherfucker
Sunrise painted in red
Laughin’ at the pain, every scar made me rougher
Best of memories dancin’ in my head (in my head)
[Verse 2]
Post-grunge heart with a chipped gold tooth
Yelled truth till it finally hit proof
They threw dirt on my name, I grew roots in the rain
Now I bloom from the bruise and the stain
Punk kid with a big mouth
Turned doubt into big routes
From the couch to the big crowd
Same rage, just flipped now
Hands up for the ones that we lost
They live in the tire marks, live in the exhaust
Every laugh they left still pushes my tread
Till I ride past fear, leave it all for dead (hey!)
[Chorus]
I’m on top of the world, motherfucker
Clear skies over everything I said
Ridin’ and smokin’, every mile gettin’ tougher
Best of memories dancin’ in my head
On top of the world, motherfucker
Sunset meltin’ the dread
If it didn’t almost kill me, would I feel this tougher?
Best of memories dancin’ in my head (in my head)
