To Pit Stop



In, then out, over and absoutely all about
stop! Everyone's blood is about to bleed out
Roll in, roll up, roll out; shout; it out!
Lift it up and switch; no doubts...
This coming change, it is really what?
What: It's all about; no doubts...
Enter the Pit and Stop; bleed out...
Fill the dark plate which is your life
capture all the pieces leave nothing out.
No doubts, get it out, no doubts...
Drop it all down, feel it steam
feel it burn; now stop and learn.
To Stop is the Pits, but, that's what...
IS: Stop or it's to the Pits...
