Lyrics

Activate

[Verse: Trevor Dahl]

Activate, I got the keys, don't scratch the paint

Blowin' through racks, you mad you can't

Lookin' at me, I'm glad you hate, yeah

Activate, I got the keys, don't scratch the paint

Blowin' through racks, you mad you can't

Lookin' at me, I'm glad you hate

Got that tiger on my sock

You're not welcome on my block

I'm a movie, you're a prop

Got that tiger on my sock

You're not welcome on my block

I'm a movie, you're a prop

Activate, I got the keys, don't scratch the paint

Blowin' through racks, you mad you can't

Lookin' at me, I'm glad you hate, yeah

Activate, I got the keys, don't scratch the paint

Blowin' through racks, you mad you can't

Lookin' at me, I'm glad you hate

[Pre-Drop: Trevor Dahl]

Activate, activate, yeah

Activate, activate, what

Activate, activate, ha

Activate (let's go)
