Ghost on the Block

Verse 1
Step in the fog with the collar pulled high
Smoke in my chest underneath of the sky
Shadows are creeping, we moving in stealth
Run up the bag and look after the health
Clips in the console, rubber band tight
Wheels on the asphalt burning the night
Look at my eyes and you see what it cost
Ice in my veins and the skyline is lost

Chorus
Ghost on the block, stepping through the shade
Made ten racks before the skyline fade
Gliding on the curb, engine running cold
Stories that the pavement never told
Ghost on the block, running up the score
Knock three times at the heavy iron door
Heavy 808 shaking up the ground
Watch the whole city when we slide in town

Verse 2
Stutter the hats and the tempo is grim
Out on the edge where the chances are slim
Cold on the corner, we counting the spread
Keeping it solid in all that was said
Flash of the strobe, now we back in the whip
Don't let the grip on the steering wheel slip
Winter is harsh and the concrete is grey
Stack up the paper then vanish away

Chorus
Ghost on the block, stepping through the shade
Made ten racks before the skyline fade
Gliding on the curb, engine running cold
Stories that the pavement never told
Ghost on the block, running up the score
Knock three times at the heavy iron door
Heavy 808 shaking up the ground
Watch the whole city when we slide in town

Bridge
Slide through the mist, nobody speaks
Working all night for the top of the peaks
Foot on the pedal, the bassline drops
Never look back till the engine stops

Chorus
Ghost on the block, stepping through the shade
Made ten racks before the skyline fade
Gliding on the curb, engine running cold
Stories that the pavement never told
Ghost on the block, running up the score
Knock three times at the heavy iron door
Heavy 808 shaking up the ground
Watch the whole city when we slide in town
