[Chorus:]

Driftin', driftin'

Running reds tryna get some distance

Ignition, ignition

Stomp the gas 'till I see it different

I'm on a mission, I'm on a mission

To get it all from what I'm gifted

I don't know myself and my mind's like a prison

I might as/Midas well make it gold when I cross a Christian


[Verse 1:]

Head first off the high way

Fuck it, didn't wanna drive straight or to end up back at my place

Home is just another migraine, used to be my mirage in a dry lake

Got a pile of shit on my plate

My rent, I might not make

Another breathe I cannot take

Everything is at a high stake

Heart beat makes me vibrate

I'm scared of death but why wait?

Who said that?

Was it the mirror or my greed?

My pride or jealousy?

The voices in my head, or the demons always bouncing on my bed

My anxiety and paranoia wrestle me down in a triple threat

Everything's already said

This scheme been beat dead, but fuck it I'm a reject

So I'm goin off the deep end

If I drown then it's just another regret

We can all pretend, that it didn't happen

Please, I mean it

Act like you didn't see it

It will be our little secret

Can't face what I failed at, lock it in a steel trap

Bury it down at the deepest


[Chorus:]

Driftin', driftin'

Running reds tryna get some distance

Ignition, ignition

Stomp the gas 'till I see it different

I'm on a mission, I'm on a mission

To get it all from what I'm gifted

I don't know myself and my mind's like a prison

I might as/Midas well make it gold when I cross a Christian


[Verse 2:]

Don't know if I'm chosen

That or I'm broken

I'm neither, I'm choking

Dry throat and it's closing

I can't go unspoken

These thoughts too provoking

Wear my heart on my sleeve from the nights of no sleep

No one was there to believe

No creature was stirring like it's Christmas Eve

I made it out with the skin of my teeth

And sellin' a bag of the green, now I'm outta my league

I'm on the pro team, performing phenomenally

It's such an abnormal anomaly

Living my life like I got it for free

Look at myself, who do I wanna be

Dream about wealth, but I don't want the greed

Think I'ma melt down from all the fatigue

Play the hand that I'm dealt, the kings and the queens

Now what's next?

If I fold can I switch decks?

Get a Full House with a white fence

Drift on the highway, lose my mind to the presets

Life live without reasons


[Chorus:]

Driftin', driftin'

Running reds tryna get some distance

Ignition, ignition

Stomp the gas 'till I see it different

I'm on a mission, I'm on a mission

To get it all from what I'm gifted

I don't know myself and my mind's like a prison

I might as/Midas well make it gold when I cross a Christian


[Bridge:]

Never found serenity, in the holy Trinity, or deity entities

Now my demons are the enemy

Is it really the inner me, let it out through the auxiliary


[Verse 3:]

Will I make it up heaven if I go down with my brethren?

Can't believe it for a second, I'll start begging to the reverend

I've committed sins, all seven, way too many times to mention

But if hell is truly my detention, then I guess I gotta learn my lesson

Can I repent? That's the biggest question

Or is it already destined?

Will me and God have unspoken tension

I won't make it to the next dimension

I can feel it in my gut, my intestines

Through my whole digestion

Nothing can ever be perfection

So I gotta face my reflection

Lift my chin, put my best in
