Deal or Drive Her

Urban Drift

[Verse 1] 
In the city lights, I feel it in my bones, Suburban dreams, but I’m lost in the zones, 
Riding through the streets that echo my past, urban vibes clash, can it ever last?  
A new type of hurt, cannot shake this feeling, swerving through life, just searching for healing.  

[Chorus] 
Urban in a Suburban, where do I belong?  
Swerving ‘round these corners, trying to stay strong.  
A new type of hurt but I will find my way, 
In the mix of the beats, I will carve out my day.  

[Verse 2] 
High rise thoughts, they loom like the towers, 
Feeling misplaced, losing track of the hours, 
Flashing back to where the roots used to thrive, 
Now I am caught in a maze, just trying to survive.  

Not deserving, but chasing the dream, 
Lives like a movie, not at all what it seems.  

[Chorus] 
[Outro] 
So here I am, lost but still awake, 
In the city’s heart, I’ll never break.
