Seer of Overdrive

Vision, Speed, it was everything

Rumbles of beasts and engines

Flesh slapping rubber

Neon lights fill the streets

We are the freaks needing speed

Saying hi to danger

Greeting death as if it's a casual friday

Fancy flashing cars wore by cash cowards paying for looks

Sunglasses covered punks trying to see if they can get next Sunday's lunch

Cigarettes, drug mouth breathers don't even know they are here

Me?

That's simple, nitro in the tank underneath a rust bucket

I like to be underestimated, keeps the wine fresh and the spirit on fire

I'm the kind of person who dares to go higher than what I see

I hate it when I'm stuck in my seat and I can't be anything but skin

I want the wind crashing through me

I wanna be something you can't win against and I will be

I got a pocket full of aces and a sleeve of dirty tricks

This is my life in the spark of it

The future is mine and nobody can touch it but me

You don't believe it, do you?

-

Watch the lights turn and rubber burn into the streets

How these monsters all around us shriek and scramble into many routes

All snares but does any of them really know how to be bite?

It's laughable until they're on my tail you know?

But that's fun of it

Having slumber parties with who can kill you or try to

Flipping in the edge of the mountain

I have a fountain of luck and knowledge

I'm something beyond this mortal bondage!

So go on, leave this seat

Or stay on and feel the heat

I'm something that fate can't deny

Because I've seen it about a thousand times..
