Lyrics

Intro

Uh huh

Yeah

Iron Lung

Detroit

You know what it is

Verse 1

Static on the wire

I see the industry burning like a tire

Caught in the crosshairs

Caught in the line of fire

Cold hands clutching metal

Petal to the floor

Heavy metal pedal

I'm kicking down the door

Raw dogs and war gods

Watch the landscape change

Flipping all the odds

Rearrange the range

I came

I saw

I conquered

Shatter the mirror

Mental getting stronger

Living much longer

Sick of the circus

Beneath the surface

Work is my purpose

Killing every service

Pre-Chorus

They want the crown

They want the glory

Same old story

Fading to grey

Chorus

This is how we ride

Never taking sides

Keeping it alive

Keep it alive

Verse 2

Riddle me this

How can a ghost even exist

Fists clenched tight

List of those I missed

Paper planes

Paper chains

Paper pain

Driving me insane

I'm a lyrical literal miracle

Spitting the spiritual

Turning the pinnacle

Feeling cynical

My rhymes

My rules

My game

Setting the fuse

Nothing to lose

Watching them bruise

Blue sky turning black

Attack after attack

Front to the back

Cover the track

Got the hunger

Got the drive

Got the heat

Stay alive

Pre-Chorus

They want the crown

They want the glory

Same old story

Fading to grey

Chorus

This is how we ride

Never taking sides

Keeping it alive

Keep it alive

Hook

Keep it alive

Alive

Keep it alive

Alive

Verse 3

Ticking of the clock

Built on the rock

Shock to the system

Nobody missed 'em

Dust to dust

Trust who I trust

Iron and rust

Winning is a must

The master the maker the move

Finding the groove

Nothing to prove

Get in the loop

Hoop after hoop

Soldier in the troop

Salt in the soup

Look in my eye

I never will lie

Try and then try

Aim for the sky

Weight on my back

Soul in the sack

Running the track

Avoiding the crack

Chorus

This is how we ride

Never taking sides

Keeping it alive

Keep it alive

Verse 4

Words are the weapon

Check the floor I step on

Second by second

Heavily beckoned

No mercy no more

Washing up on the shore

Life is a chore

Settle the score

Blood in the water

Lamb to the slaughter

Giving no quarter

Living on the border

Mind in the gutter

Listen to the mutter

Bread and the butter

Heart in a flutter

Total eclipse

Tighten the grips

Loose on the ships

Salt on the lips

One for the money

Two for the show

Three for the blow

Let it all go

Hook

Keep it alive

Alive

Keep it alive

Alive
