Broken Sax Estate

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Cold on the curb, same code, same rain Old souls sell lies for a new name chain I saw bare-faced fear in the shop window glare Then I watched it all vanish when the warrant came there Black cab pulled off, I was gone by the split Mum said, "Move smart," so I move like this Loose lips sink ships, and the block stay tight One bad word and the whole thing lights I keep it low when I pass that gate Hand on the bag, heart on skates Piano crying while the alley stays mean Dead calm eyes in a burnt-out scene [Pre-Chorus] Don't call my phone, just know I been on edge so long Every small thing grows And the smoke don't move on [Chorus] Broken sax estate We don't talk, we wait Broken sax estate Then the whole thing shakes Say my name, then fade Broken sax estate (estate) (estate) [Verse 2] Cream in the tea, but the room gone blue News on the screen, and the news ain't new Told lil bro, "Keep both eyes wide" 'Cause a smiling man will hide that knife I got scars in the grin, got the world on mute Got a split in the plan and a clear excuse Feet don't slip when the floor gets slick I learned quick how the pressure gets thick One for the loss, two for the run Three for the code that I outgrew, son Still hear brass in the back of my head Like a ghost in the seat with a red-lined thread [Pre-Chorus] Don't call my phone, just know I been on edge so long Every small thing grows And the smoke don't move on [Chorus] Broken sax estate We don't talk, we wait Broken sax estate Then the whole thing shakes Say my name, then fade Broken sax estate (estate) (estate) [Bridge] If I walk too close, I feel that pull If I speak too much, the cup run full So I breathe slow, let the night pass through One last note in the broken blue No saints here, just steel and nerve No clean hands, just what we deserve [Final Chorus] Broken sax estate We don't talk, we wait Broken sax estate Then the whole thing shakes Say my name, then fade Broken sax estate (estate) (estate)
