Cheap thrills, old gear in the backpack
One mic, two skills
Promoter said, "Maybe" (hey), but maybe still kills
Missus ran, but we made sound check
Laughing in the line, felt rich in the wreck
You said one day they'll touch your name on deck
I said, "One day, hope I am on that deck"
I went from backseat to the spotlight (whoo)
Same crew, same jokes, just a long flight
We ain't change, only views and the stage height (yeah, yeah)
Still the same on an off night
From backseat to the spotlight (whoo)
If I shine, then we shine, that's the whole life
You said, "Ride," so we ride 'til the wheels slide (oh)
If I win, then you win, that's the raw vibe, hey
Now they serve tastes I can't spell (whoo)
Wrist cold, but you still know I hate the smell
Greenroom, door shut, it's too loud in my head
I just need that cracked phone light "goodnight" text instead
You joke, "Rockstar, don't forget the little street"
But you're the reason that I ever left the little street
You kept my ego in the backseat, buckled in
Said, "Touch the sky, but don't drown in the win"
I went from backseat to the spotlight (whoo)
Same crew, same jokes, just a long flight
We ain't change, only views and the stage height (yeah, yeah)
Still the same on an off night
From backseat to the spotlight (whoo)
If I shine, then we shine, that's the whole life
You said, "Ride," so we ride 'til the wheels slide (oh)
If I win, then you win, that's the raw vibe, hey
Eh-eh, eh-eh, eh-eh, eh
Eh-eh, eh-eh, eh-eh, eh
Eh-eh
Whoo!
Whoo!
Eh
