Cold Staircase

[Intro]

Cold staircase

Echo in the hallway

Hood up, head low

Pray I make it home safe

[Chorus]

Viral, viral, make it spin (spin)

Whole block yelling out, "That’s him" (that’s him)

Came from the bottom of the brim

Now the whole city tryna talk like him

Drop that, drop that, let it shake (shake)

Opps in the backseat, pumpin' brakes

I turn pain into plays, that’s the wave

Cold heart, hot head, I can’t change

[Verse 1]

They ain’t really like me, they pretend

Broke days, eight deep, one twin bed

Two phones, one dream, no new friends

Only thing I ever trusted was revenge

Seen boys turn ghost over small change

Seen tears on a shirt make a dark stain

Judge talkin’ like he really know my last name

He ain’t seen my aunt light candles in the glass frame

[Chorus]

Viral, viral, make it spin (spin)

Whole block yelling out, "That’s him" (that’s him)

Came from the bottom of the brim

Now the whole city tryna talk like him

Drop that, drop that, let it shake (shake)

Opps in the backseat, pumpin' brakes

I turn pain into plays, that’s the wave

Cold heart, hot head, I can’t change

[Verse 2]

Backseat talk got the crew feelin’ wired

Lil bro say he tired, but inspired

Mama on the line say she pray I retire

But the rent due soon and the block on fire

Short fuse, long night, still I stay calm

Every move that I make feel like Napalm

Hit record, then the world sing the same song

Turn a short clip to a lifelong

[Chorus]

Viral, viral, make it spin (spin)

Whole block yelling out, "That’s him" (that’s him)

Came from the bottom of the brim

Now the whole city tryna talk like him

Drop that, drop that, let it shake (shake)

Opps in the backseat, pumpin' brakes

I turn pain into plays, that’s the wave

Cold heart, hot head, I can’t change
