Sever Every Line

Verse 1

Sirens in the early morning

Block stay quiet till the sun drops low

I been moving like a ghost around the corner

Hands stay clean but the streets all know

That talk is cheap when the wires get tapped

I move smooth I never leave a trail

They watch my steps with the cameras mapped

One misstep and the story's stale

Pre-Chorus

Cross the line

Chain the door

Ring the line

Want no more

Chorus

Came up from the bottom

Came up from the bottom

Now they hear me in the distance

When the bassline starts to widen

Man they talk but they don't own it

Talk but they don't own it

I keep the tempo steady

While I run it run it run it

Verse 2

Cold nights and the pavement echoes

Grit in the teeth and a lesson learned

Every enemy's a footnote

Every victory earned and burned

I don't shake no hands I don't sign no deals

I just push the weight through the concrete field

Divide the fraction multiply the real

Keep my circle tight and my arrow steeled

Pre-Chorus

Cross the line

Chain the door

Ring the line

Want no more

Chorus

Came up from the bottom

Came up from the bottom

Now they hear me in the distance

When the bassline starts to widen

Man they talk but they don't own it

Talk but they don't own it

I keep the tempo steady

While I run it run it run it

Bridge

Had to sever every tie

Had to sever every line

Had to sever every lie

Just to stand and hold my time

Chorus

Came up from the bottom

Came up from the bottom

Now they hear me in the distance

When the bassline starts to widen

Man they talk but they don't own it

Talk but they don't own it

I keep the tempo steady

While I run it run it run it
