Lyrics

Nowhere Fast

[Chorus: Kehlani]

Ashes blowin' in the air

Our world’s on fire, but we don't care, yeah

Wasted youth, always on the road

Never lookin' back and we’re never gettin' old

'Cause the skies are black

But our heart's made of gold

Fuck doin' what you're told

We're goin' nowhere fast

[Verse 1: Eminem]

I feel sorry for this beat, sympathy pains for this track

This road is takin’ me back

Down memory lane with this rap

I can still look out in this crowd, be wowed and be taken aback

I’m simply stating a fact

I had Wembley Stadium packed

But now we're on a path headed to nowhere and fast

Another terrorist attacks

Like a tariff, blows half of Madison Square up, alas

We perish in the blast

But that isn’t scaring us, we pass

Nowhere we're fearless, 'cause we're just—

[Pre-Chorus: Kehlani & Eminem]

Ashes blowin’ in the air

Our world's on fire, but we don't care, yeah

(We don't give a… no, no)

Wasted youth, always on the road

Never lookin' back and we're never gettin' old

'Cause the skies are black

But our heart's made of gold (Golden)

Fuck doin' what you're told (What we're told)

We're goin' nowhere fast

[Post-Chorus: Kehlani]

'Cause we're goin' no, goin' no

Goin' no, goin' no

Goin no, goin' nowhere

We're on the run of our lives

Goin' nowhere fast

[Verse 2: Eminem]

Fuck doin' what you're told, act like a two-year old

Shit is soon to go kaboom and blow

Anyways; for MC's it's a funeral

When I'm devisin' this rhyme

'Cause I'm awake and you're mourning

That's why I rise and I shine

Like a new day has dawned on me

Gusto, guts, bravado

Nuts and plus I kick up dust and cuss a lot

I musta got you in somewhat of a debacle

'Cause some stuff that's awful

Really don't mean nothin' although

There's a lot of shit I said in jest that's tough to swallow

But if at times my heart it seems

Like it's in the wrong place, it's probably 'cause it's on my sleeve

Keanu Reeves speed of life, avoid or veer

Or just steer toward it, we're only lookin' forward

But where we're goin', we have no idea

Nowhere to go, but hysterical, it's gettin' warm in here

I set the world on fire, was born to be an arsonist

Just one spark and it's lit

But I'ma still get dark on this shit

Told you I'd leave my mark on this bitch—war machine

But you forced me in a corner

I'm sure to have somethin' for your rear

And in the course of the assault as torture gets more severe

Go to war with me, you'll end up blew to Timbuktu

I send at you a ten-ton nuke like Kim Jong-Un

And end up ruinin' your career

But when all is said and done

And at the end of my run I'll just rewind clocks, forever young

Make time stop, will I ever fall off? That day will never come

'Til the pine box, bitch, fuck you! I'm better than I ever was

'Til the bomb drops, hope it never does

But I'm not gonna sweat it 'cause

This world's screwed, it's already fucked

And I'm on top, so everyone's just—

[Chorus: Kehlani & Eminem]

Ashes blowin' in the air (So we're…)

Our world's on fire, but we don't care, yeah

(We don't give a… no, no)

Wasted youth, always on the road

Never lookin' back and we're never gettin' old

'Cause the skies are black

But our heart's made of gold (Golden)

Fuck doin' what you're told (What we're told)

We're goin' nowhere fast

[Post-Chorus: Kehlani]

'Cause we're goin' no, goin' no

Goin' no, goin' no

Goin' no, goin' nowhere

We're on the run of our lives

Goin' nowhere fast

[Bridge: Eminem & Kehlani]

You can't tell us nothin'

Hard-headed and we're stubborn

So, one ear and out the other when we're young, we're young

(We're on the run of our lives)

Who knows what the future for us could hold

Another shooter? Uh oh

(We're on the run of our lives)

No more tomorrows, we're done

And all we are is—

[Chorus: Kehlani & Eminem]

Ashes blowin' in the air (So we're…)

Our world's on fire, but we don't care (Don't care, yeah)

(We don't give a… no, no)

Wasted youth, always on the road

Never lookin' back and we're never gettin' old

'Cause the skies are black

But our heart's made of gold (Golden)

Fuck doin' what you're told (What we're told)

We're goin' nowhere fast

[Post-Chorus: Kehlani]

'Cause we're goin' no, goin' no

Goin' no, goin' no

Goin' no, goin' nowhere

We're on the run of our lives

Goin' nowhere fast
