Download Worth More Then Credits
(Verse 1)
I was born with fire in my veins
Wings and wire, running from names
Every job was just another lie
Every face just passing by
I flew for profit, flew for pay
Never cared who burned away
Till I met ghosts who wouldn’t leave
A broken crew who still believed
(Pre-Chorus 1)
I had the prize in my crosshairs
Blood on my hands, truth in the air
He said, “Choose now, or choose never”
Funny thing about pulling levers
(Chorus)
I sold my soul for speed and silence
Thought I knew the cost of violence
But some things hit harder than credits
Some debts you can’t outrun
I could’ve cashed in, could’ve walked
Left them screaming in the smoke and dark
But family’s worth more than credits
Yeah, I chose the ones I love
(Verse 2)
Colonel shouting through the flame
Greed carved deep into his name
Chains of thought inside my head
Voices pulling me instead
White light cracking through my mind
Freedom’s not so easy to find
I saw the monster in his eyes
Saw who I’d be if I complied
(Pre-Chorus 2)
Steel was falling, time was thin
One last breath, one last sin
I felt the ship begin to shake
Some lines you cross, some lines you break
(Chorus)
I sold my soul for speed and silence
Thought I knew the cost of violence
But some things hit harder than credits
Some debts you can’t outrun
I could’ve cashed in, could’ve walked
Left them screaming in the smoke and dark
But family’s worth more than credits
Yeah, I chose the ones I love
(Bridge)
I still hear it when I close my eyes
Metal screaming, something died
Don’t call me clean, don’t call me right
I just chose who lives tonight
If hell is real, I’ve seen the door
I won’t be that man anymore
(Final Chorus)
I sold my soul for speed and silence
Thought I knew the cost of violence
But some things hit harder than credits
Some debts you can’t outrun
I fly with scars, I fly with ghosts
But I know who I’ll protect the most
Family’s worth more than credits
Worth more than all the stars
(Outro)
Engines screaming into light
No turning back, no alibis
If this is trust, then let it hurt
I’ll carry it till I’m dirt
