Lyrics
Verse 1 Stood at the intersection watching M15s crawl past
Every single one reading the same phrase in yellow backlight
Not In Service but the avenue still choked with metal
I'm thinking how that sign applies to more than transit
Been feeling like a bus nobody flags down anymore
Route discontinued while the meter still running
The diesel fumes mix with halal cart smoke, November cold
I got a MetroCard with plenty swipes but nowhere urgent
Used to know every block by the cracks in the pavement
Now I'm standing still while delivery bikes thread through impossible gaps
Hook Not In Service, that's the statement
Not In Service, read the declaration
Not In Service, but I'm still here taking up space
Not In Service
Verse 2 The gridlock got a rhythm, brake lights pulse like a heartbeat failing
I watched a woman knock on the bus door, driver shook his head slow
She cursed in three languages then walked into traffic
That's the feeling, right there, when you're ready to board
But the system already decided you don't fit the schedule
I remember when these streets felt like they belonged to us
Now I'm a ghost in my own neighborhood, invisible commute
The rent went up, the corner store became a bank branch
My man Rashid sold his cab medallion for nothing
Told me he feels like one of these buses, hollow and bypassed
The engine still works but nobody's calling for the pickup
Hook Not In Service, that's my status
Not In Service, disconnected apparatus
Not In Service, still idling at the red
Not In Service
Outro I'll be here when the light changes
Standing where I always stood
Not In Service but still breathing
Still here, engine running, waiting for the route to restart
