[Intro – vintage crackle, crooner tone in background]
City hums in broken rhyme,
Time is money, I’m out of time.
808s in my chest, can’t breathe,
Courier’s beat, never leaves.

[Verse 1 – slow rap, steady flow]
Ride through neon veins of the night,
Package tight, but the weight ain’t right.
Bills stacked high like the skyline glow,
Every drop I make, another debt I owe.

[Pre-Chorus – glitch repeat, whispered]
Messages burn in the static haze,
Monsters watching from alleyways.
Every hand I shake’s another lie,
Courier’s beat just keeps me alive.

[Chorus – cinematic, trance swell]
Courier’s beat, don’t stop the sound,
Lost in a city where the lost are found.
Every street corner cuts too deep,
I don’t sleep — I just keep the beat.

[Verse 2 – rap with darker synths]
Club lights flicker, smoke gets thick,
Play my horn, but the crowd’s too slick.
Jazz in my blood, glitch in my code,
Carry the weight down a haunted road.

[Bridge – crooner vocal overlay, orchestral swell]
Every step is a song I owe,
Every night the city takes control.
Courier’s beat — my curse, my prayer,
I’m still here… but nobody cares.

[Outro – lo-fi fade, static crackle]
Courier’s beat… (can’t stop, won’t stop)
Courier’s beat… (heartbeat drop)
Courier’s beat… (all I got)
I live in the rhythm the city forgot.
