Greap prompt 'cause you can take it anywhere. Had fun. Written in less than an hour; before breakfast! I never do that. Production took longer. I always do that.

Lyrics
Down To The Wire
Sittin' in limbo tryin' to get higher Wonderin' if my points are about to expire Looks like I'm standin' in the line of fire It's Down To The Wire.
Hangin' out on my route lookin' for buyer Send me a friendly who's a frequent flyer Condition red, don't know what's about to transpire It's Down To The Wire
Ch Down To The Wire Feelin' closed in Trapped by desire Wherever I've been Always on the lookout for a New day to begin Keep playin' the game but there's No way to win
Still sittin' in limbo tryin' to get higher So many questions I'm afraid to enquire Gotta keep my head down, dodging crossfire It's Down To The Wire
Down To The Wire Down To The Wire Down To The Wire

So glad you did. Your song is so passionate, dynamic and catchy. Great feel of the energy and the wire. Fun to listen to. Fantastic performance and production 🎶
Very deft rhyming of 'wire' all the way through! This has the urgency and danger of a road movie soundtrack.
