big mike (us) - open mike night lyrics
[verse 1]
keep it real, man, i’m scared of growing up
being out in this world alone, i just might be f+cked
staring out into sp+ce, in the middle of the night
thinking, “what the f+ck am i gonna do with my life?”
june is coming up so fast and i’ll be graduating soon
the fam will be so proud of me, they’ll be over the moon
say goodbye to high school, man, i’m onto college now
they say “bigger and better things,” to them i say, “how?”
this the only life we’ve known, why we wanna leave so fast?
i’d rather stick around and make my childhood last
but i guess i gotta be a man and make my momma proud
the last thing i ever wanna do is let her down
[verse 2]
you know the saying, bros before hoes
it hurts that i’m the one that broke the code; i f+cked up
but at the same time, homie acting immature
he acting like he ain’t pull the same sh+t before
this was my brother for the longest time
and now we don’t speak over a girl we both thought was fine
he felt a way about me going with her to lunch
and blocked your boy over someone he knew for a month
that was in october, five months later
this dude is still hot; we should call him the equator
i tried to reach out, i wanted the beef to be over
but i got ignored; hey, at least i got some closure
it’s time to move on, mans is acting like a b+tch
don’t got time anymore for the childish sh+t
i made a mistake, and in the end
a real friend would want to try and make amends
the smoke cleared and i still have real ones in my corner
i feel so reborn, it’s time for me to move forward
and to my former friend, i wish him nothing but the best
it felt good to get these thoughts of mine off my chest
[verse 3]
i just want everyone that’s listening to know
this song right here, the realest sh+t i ever wrote
it felt right to open up open mike night this way
it’s like the start of my resume
coming out the gate, being honest with y’all
and that’s how it’s gonna be until the day i fall
ya’ll should get to know me, cuz i ain’t going nowhere
cuz if you stick around, i’ll stick around, i promise, i swear
you see, to me, this music is therapeutic
a way to escape my problems, a way to feel secluded
got me feeling inspired, a feeling i desired
your boy is hungry now, your boy is on fire
i’m feeling positive, feel like my future’s bright
this was your introduction to open mike night
the first chapter of my story
and there’ll be more to come, don’t worry
the origin of my glory
