Zane in Vegas

[Verse 1] Zane wore silk like a crown Top floor when he came downtown Nevada dust on the Cadillac Gold on his wrist, cold in the back He knew every room, every grin Every card trick, every sin Vegas finest, that’s the talk Fast money when he hit the walk Name loud when he stepped through Whole block knew what Zane do Pretty lies and a velvet hand Run the night like he ran the sand [Pre-Chorus] But one pair of eyes stayed close Notebook, badge, and a patient ghost Every call, every ride, every place Detective kept that steady pace [Chorus] Zane, Zane, Vegas finest Zane, Zane, top of the chrome Zane, Zane, then he saw it Family came calling him home Zane, Zane, left that line now Zane, Zane, took that road He changed his ways for his babies Put that old life down for good [Verse 2] Caught in the mirror, suit pressed clean Still seeing gray through the gleam The detective said, “I know your name” And the whole night felt like blame Backseat talk with a heavy sigh No more slick words, no more sky-high He looked at the ring on his hand Thought of his kids and he understood stand Bills on the table, school shoes new Little ones need more than you So he packed up the ring of keys Chose a sober heart, chose peace [Pre-Chorus] Now the badge is not the fear It’s the reason he stayed here Every promise hit the floor Then he built something worth more [Chorus] Zane, Zane, Vegas finest Zane, Zane, top of the chrome Zane, Zane, then he saw it Family came calling him home Zane, Zane, left that line now Zane, Zane, took that road He changed his ways for his babies Put that old life down for good [Bridge] Late nights turned into early rides School drop-offs and a man with pride No more chase, no more fake shine Just a hand to hold in the hard times He still walks like he owns the room But now it’s love that fills the tune If the city tries to pull him back He turns his face and keeps on track [Chorus] Zane, Zane, Vegas finest Zane, Zane, top of the chrome Zane, Zane, then he saw it Family came calling him home Zane, Zane, left that line now Zane, Zane, took that road He changed his ways for his babies Put that old life down for good
