I remember when I first time I played Scarface and lyrics slapped at the end of the heist, when I was moving bags. It was amazing.

I really wish Payday 3 has some sort of system where either the song gets more intense or the lyrics come in during times of desperation, such as Point of No Return or Endless Assault waves.

[@superbsoap]

For me the lyrics kicked in during the boss fight, magical experience

[@cainprescott4937]

It's kinda weird to realize that this might be the first official track since *Break the Rules* to have a lyrical section. For being what's probably the last heist they'll ever add, though, I'd say it's well enough earned the lyrics.

Damn, got literal chills when the lyrics kick in. Thinking back on all the heists undertaken over the years. This truly feels like a great swan song for Payday 2. A conclusion to a game with almost an entire decade of history. Looking forward to heisting even more in Payday 3!

Lyrics (from what I and others could hear): I'm on the road again, the one that got us here. Through murky waters and golden grins, so many drills we broke, so many laws we broke. I'm on the road again, let's end this. We're comin' down, like wolves in masks, and you're our prey. We're comin' down, turn up the heat! I'm on my way. We're comin' down, with all the fire, with all the crew. We're comin' down, on you. I'm on the road again, and money calls me, I'm on my feet again, roamin' free! I'm on the road again, back on my feet. I got that spark again, turn up the heat, WE FOUGHT WE HACKED WE SABOTAGED WE ROBBED WE SHOT WE RAN! I'm on the road again, let us settle this score. we're comin' down, like wolves in masks, and you're our prey. We're comin' down, Turn up the heat, I'm on my way. We're comin' down, with all the fire, with all the crew. We're comin' down... on you... (last "on you" was cut off)

[@Rayven_420]

This is what the white house track should have been. The drums, organ and whistles add a sense of tension and urgency.
