Backseat Banton Lyrics by Bartees Strange

Horror

2025

[Verse 1]
I’m a backseat lover
Now I want to drive
In the back of a cutlass
Lived a whole nother life
Never ran from no other
They were dyin’ inside
Live a day in another’s
Might’ve lost my life
[Chorus]
And now I’m staring down the edge again
Future’s got a sketchy grin
Should I grab the wheel and spin?
Look at me now
[Verse 2]
I don’t need no other
I can put that on mine
SLS ‘til the blood go
I don’t need not one dime
Never ran from no other
‘Cause I had whisky inside
Live a day like my brothers
They’d have took your life
And now I’m sleepin’ standin’ up again
In thе brightest lights
Time is pulling up on all my sins
How much can I buy?
[Chorus]
So now I’m staring down the еdge again
Future’s got a sketchy grin
Should I grab the wheel and spin?
[Bridge]
Being scared has made me bigger now
Bigger than I was
The darkest side of waking up is seeing who I’ve become
Grace is still a savior
Every moment that it comes
I’m reminded of a hopeful me and how fast that I could run
[Verse 3]
I know you want me to leave, but I need you right now
When there’s nothing to see, but I just need to find out
You and I got some reasons that we could leave right now
I know there’s none left for me, but I just need to find out
The future’s coming for me and there’s no breaking free
Time’s the winner when fear’s got you nailed to a tree
The only way up for me is to break down
