NYXJX

(yeah) They serve us poison on a silver tray

Bright red dyes and chemical decay

HFCS in the bottle we drink While the screen on the wall

tells us what to think But I rise above,

I clear my plate Turning the chemical noise to state-of-the-art weight

I'm running faster through the smoke and lead

Out of the concrete,

out of my head (ahhhh) Pure spirit running through my veins instead

Yeah, the world is toxic,

but I break the mold

From the poison streets to the Olympic gold

Microplastics in the water we flow But my lungs expand,

watch the athlete grow

Skipping the sugar, skipping the fake

Every breath is a promise I make Up at five AM,

the pavement is cold

New York grit in my body and soul

They want us sluggish,

they want us slow (but we don't play that) We build the

temple where the giants grow

I'm running faster through the smoke and lead

Out of the concrete,

out of my head (ahhhh) Pure spirit running through my veins instead

Yeah, the world is toxic,

but I break the mold

From the poison streets to the Olympic gold

Out of the dirt (rise

up) Pure gold,

pure soul
