Came back from the war. The war didn't come back. Scanning doorways at the coffee shop, holding the tether tight.

Lyrics
Yeahhh Let's get it Ollifax - came home, still cold Back in the city, I'm not the same - move quicker Redline the dash, sip heavy, roll bigger Hand on the pulse, trust thin like a feather Say it with the chest: we hold it together Can't stash the steel - I keep it near for the weather Pray for the peace, but I prep for the pressure Crowd moving slow, I'm a metronome stepper Back to the wall - eyes up - move better Streetlights hum, but my mind still scans Doorways, exits, shadows, plans Dice on payday - small sins, big hands Three drinks in, still rigid, still stands Neighbors yawn; I'm already on lap ten They hit snooze; I'm up before the pen I don't want smoke - but I smell it in the wind If trouble comes close, I'm calm, locked in Heartbeat sync with the kick, no tremor Discipline sharp, but the edge got temper Back in the city, I'm not the same - move quicker Redline the dash, sip heavy, roll bigger Hand on the pulse, trust thin like a feather Say it with the chest: we hold it together Can't stash the steel - I keep it near for the weather Pray for the peace, but I prep for the pressure Crowd moving slow, I'm a metronome stepper Back to the wall - eyes up - move better Gravel in the throat, but the promise stay clear I gamble with the chips - not lives, not peers Ghosts in the rearview fade when I steer If the night gets loud, I stay crystal, no fear Park lot check - mirror, door, line Hands steady now, but the reflex prime Opportunity knocks? I hope it don't try Part of me hungry; the wiser says "Why?" I'm home, but the engine still hums Cold in the bones, warm blood drums If I slip, brothers lift - no crumbs If they test, I don't flex - I go numb We back in the city - move quicker, think better Redline the dash, roll smart, hold tether Steel stays near, but the prayer stays better Head on a swivel - boots light like a feather Crowd moving slow - I'm a metronome stepper From now on, we carry it together Hands in a circle - oath tight on the leather Back to the wall - eyes up - move better Ollifax - home base, still ready Yeahhh
