Neon Drift (Version 2)

INTRO

yeah…

I been here before…

but it feels different this time…

city glowing like a memory…

VERSE 1 – laid-back rap

Late night chrome on my reflection,

Lost inside my own direction.

Money don’t fix this connection,

I just drift in my obsession.

808 crawling through the frame,

Every block look the same.

Luxury wrapped around the pain,

But it never heals the name.

Skylines fade into my mind,

Everything is out of line.

I been running out of time,

Still I move like I’m fine.

She text “you good?” I don’t reply,

I just watch the world go by.

Neon tears in a purple sky,

I don’t know the reason why.

PRE-HOOK – melodic autotune

I can feel it in my soul…

Something I can’t control…

Even when I let it go…

It still pulls me slow…

HOOK – emotional melodic

I been riding through the night just to feel something real…

But the silence in my head is all I feel…

Every high turns to low, I can’t heal…

But the bass keep telling me to stay still…

Ohhh…

I’m lost again…

Ohhh…

In my head again…

DROP – psychedelic trap

808 hit like glass in motion…

slow emotion…

deep devotion…

yeah…

I can’t escape…

no…

I can’t escape…

VERSE 2 – melodic rap + sing flow

Don Toliver wave in my tone, slow,

Future voices in my flow.

Everything I touch let go,

But I still don’t know.

Travis dreams in the rear view fade,

Every choice that I ever made.

Now I’m stuck in the light and shade,

Of a life I never displayed.

Atmosphere on my skin like smoke,

Every word that I never spoke.

I been rich but I still feel broke,

That’s the joke…

I been floating through luxury haze,

Counting nights in a blurry maze.

Every smile just a phase,

Lost in days…

PRE-HOOK – falsetto layer

If I fall would you feel the same…

Or just remember my name…

HOOK – expanded

I been riding through the night just to feel something real…

But the silence in my head is all I feel…

Every high turns to low, I can’t heal…

But the bass keep telling me to stay still…

Ohhh…

I’m lost again…

Ohhh…

In my head again…

BRIDGE – psychedelic space

I see my thoughts in neon streams…

Drowning inside digital dreams…

Every heartbeat starts to slow…

But I don’t wanna let it go…

BUILD

hats rollin…

bass growin…

world slowin…

I’m goin…

FINAL DROP

heavy distorted 808 (glide + saturation)

wide trap percussion + punch snare reverb tail

atmospheric synth pad wash (minor key)

sub-bass layer + sidechain pump

vocal chops:

yeah… yeah…

don’t leave… don’t leave…

feel it… feel it…

stay with me…

OUTRO

city fading…

but I’m still awake…

drifting…
