Lyrics
Intro
Yeah
Check it
Uh-huh
Verse 1
Blocked in at the corner store
Got a crate of 45s pressed from before
Back when the bassline hit like a door
Slammed on the knuckles of anyone who bore
The weight of a record needle dropped on wax
I spin it back twice make the floor collapse
Pre-Chorus
Crate full of scratch
Crate full of scratch
Chorus
Spin the sample till the morning light
Cut the drum break hold it tight
Every pop and hiss is a souvenir
From a time that never left me here
Post-Chorus
Uh-huh
Uh-huh
Yeah
Verse 2
Found a horn stab on a B-side flip
Tape hiss like gravel on my fingertips
Ripped the loop out stitched it back again
Old soul choir singing let me in
Stacked the kick with a two-note hum
Ten seconds looped till the neighbors come
Pre-Chorus
Crate full of scratch
Crate full of scratch
Chorus
Spin the sample till the morning light
Cut the drum break hold it tight
Every pop and hiss is a souvenir
From a time that never left me here
Post-Chorus
Uh-huh
Uh-huh
Yeah
Bridge
Mono speakers creak
Needle whisper back to speak
Mono speakers creak
Say it one more week
Chorus
Spin the sample till the morning light
Cut the drum break hold it tight
Every pop and hiss is a souvenir
From a time that never left me here
Post-Chorus
Uh-huh
Uh-huh
Check it yeah
Uh-huh
Uh-huh
Yeah
