Racing Through the Night

Late nights and city lights, racing through the grind,
You’ve got promises to keep, but they’re weighing on your mind.
The clock is ticking louder, can’t let the moment slip,
Driving through the shadows, steady hands upon the grip.

You better not crash, you better not die,
You told her you’re working, don’t let her down this high.
Every mile a secret, every turn a lie,
Keep your foot on the pedal, keep reaching for the sky.

Dreams wrapped in ambition, the road is calling clear,
But every glance in the mirror brings her love so near.
A promise made in silence, a bond that feels so strong,
But every detour taken means you’re running out of time.

You better not crash, you better not die,
You told her you’re working, don’t let her down this high.
Every mile a secret, every turn a lie,
Keep your foot on the pedal, keep reaching for the sky.

In the twilight hour, where shadows start to play,
You know she’s waiting, counting down the day.
Hold on to the vision of returning home tonight,
You’ve got everything to lose if you don’t keep it right.
