Shapeshifter
Celldweller feat. Styles of Beyond Lyrics

Get ready
Prepare yourself

Get ready, get set
Prepare yourself and be ready to go

Get ready, get set, let's roll
Prepare yourself, be ready to go, and let's start moving

Ha, get ready, get set, let's roll
Expressing eagerness and excitement to start moving

Road warrior in a bit of petrol
A driver who is skilled and tough, with a sufficient amount of fuel

Red, yellow, hit green, then go, breathe in slow
Follow the traffic light signals and calmly take a deep breath

S.O.B
Styles of Beyond – the rap group featured in the song

You ain't never seen nothing so rugged at 90
There's nothing that looks as tough as this car going 90 mph

Uh huh, with the cops behind me yo!
Acknowledging the presence of pursuing police officers

The boiler's grinding, keep the cuffs, enjoy your doughnuts sir, you ain't gonna find me
The car's engine is struggling, but the driver won't get caught and mocks the idea of the police finding him

It's not likely their brains is blown out
The idea of the police being fooled or overwhelmed is expressed

You're chasing a ghost with no brakes, slow down
The police are being urged to slow down and give up, because the driver won't stop

Hundred proof octane, ready to drink bitch
Referring to high-quality gasoline, ready to use

Stop playing, I'm hot man, gimme that pink slip
Stop wasting time, give up, and hand over ownership of the car

Time's up, the animals crept through
Time has run out and the driver has successfully evaded the police

Leave them in the dust with a packet of jet fuel
Leave the police far behind with extra fuel to spare

Too quick, eat 'em up, better for pet food
Running very fast and leaving the police behind like they're a small, helpless animal

No brain, slow lane, missing your head screws
Insulting the police for being slow, dumb, and incompetent

Skin and bones let mess with your chrome set
Making fun of the police for their lack of toughness and their cars being inferior

Tricked out, hopping like your cruse in a cold chest
Describing how the driver's car is customized and bounces up and down

Parked in eagle with a safety pin
Parked in a way that resembles an eagle with a safety pin attachment

Take the backseat, now let the games begin, yeah
The police are being told to give up and watch from the backseat as the driver continues to evade them

Shape! Shifter!
Referring to the driver's ability to adapt and change shape, almost like a superhero

Come on man, you can't be real
Incredulous at the driver's abilities

I'll show you what it is, let the anthem build
The driver will prove their capabilities and let the music set the tone

Put the pedal to the metal and go
Accelerate and go as fast as possible

Tough match, you lost by a hubcap
Comparing the police to a competitor in a tough match and taunting them for coming up short

The big boss spray painted on my mud flap
Another way of describing the driver's toughness and dominance over their car

Get a rush, yeah we're calling your cold bluff
The police are being called out on their bluff and pressured to give up

Can never get enough
The driver is always hungry for more, like they can never have too much excitement

Step in, hold your breath and hang tight
The police are being challenged to step up and hold on tight, as things are about to get intense

Known for the big dollar bet in the cage fight
The driver is well-known for taking big risks and betting high amounts of money in dangerous situations

You're playing with the sharks, step inside
Challenging the police to step into a dangerous situation where they might get hurt

Everybody on your mark, get set, now let's ride
Everyone is being invited to join in and ride along, like a big adventure

Melting! - Meltdown!
Describing something that's falling apart and breaking down

While time is shifting
Referring to time passing and the situation changing

Transist! - Transform!
Referring to something changing or becoming different

Yielding! - Bending!
Describing something that's flexible and able to adapt

Two shapes they can't get straight!
Referring to something that's hard to understand or explain, like the driver's abilities

If you want it, come and let me know
Inviting others to join in and experience the thrill of the ride

I'm right here, put the pedal to the metal and go
The driver is ready and waiting for others to join in and accelerate as fast as possible
