Dust on the Loop

[Intro]

Same four bars

On and on

Hit repeat

Then I’m gone (yeah)

[Verse 1]

Baggy hoodie

Late bus home

Wrote this verse

In my notes on the phone

Got pain in my gums from the cheap takeout

Same three friends

Took the long way round

Landlord callin’

Wants that rent

Mom still workin’ that double again

Cut these fears

Into tiny loops

Play ’em back loud

’til they sound like truth

[Chorus]

I put my whole damn life on a loop

Same old stress

Same old roof

But the way that it knocks

Got me pushin’ on through

Every day, every night

Just a dusted motif I replay ’til it’s new

I put my whole damn life on a loop (on a loop)

I put my whole damn life on a loop

[Verse 2]

Shoes by the door

With the sole half gone

Still walk tall

’cause the soul held strong

Twenty missed calls

From the doubts in my head

They just talk talk talk

But they ain’t paid rent yet

Little sis ask

“Will we be okay?”

Told her “close your eyes”

“Listen what the groove say”

Turned my broke day blues

To a small breakthrough

Same eight bars

But the story feels new

[Chorus]

I put my whole damn life on a loop

Same old stress

Same old roof

But the way that it knocks

Got me pushin’ on through

Every day, every night

Just a dusted motif I replay ’til it’s new

I put my whole damn life on a loop (on a loop)

I put my whole damn life on a loop

[Bridge]

If it all falls down

Then we bounce right back (right back)

Let the bad week spin

’til it fade off track

If the world too loud

Turn it down, lean back

Let the same four bars

Hold you where you at

[Chorus]

I put my whole damn life on a loop

Same old stress

Same old roof

But the way that it knocks

Got me pushin’ on through

Every day, every night

Just a dusted motif I replay ’til it’s new

I put my whole damn life on a loop (on a loop)

I put my whole damn life on a loop
