[Intro] [Verse] Five A.M. with the apron on Waiting for the break of dawn Latte art was my only flex Waiting on a tiny check Steam wand screaming in my ear Hiding every single fear Now I’m grinding on a different beat Making magic in the summer heat I traded caffeine for the 808s Cleaning off the dirty plates Dreaming of the big marquee Wondering who I’m meant to be [Pre-Chorus] I threw the name tag in the bin Finally let the music in From the counter to the stage Yeah, I’m turning every page No more bitter, no more cold Watch the story now unfold [Chorus] Check the marquee, see the name I ain’t playing any game Ten thousand streams on the screen Living out a neon dream No more bitter coffee cups Everything is looking up Yeah, I’m rising to the top And I’m never gonna stop [Hook] I’m the main shot, no foam Found a rhythm, found a home Watch me go, watch me glow Selling out the local show [Verse] Beat-up laptop, demo files Walking for a thousand miles Used to serve 'em double shots Now I’m hitting all the sweet spots Chipped mugs on the studio floor Always wanting something more They said I was dreaming big Now I’m booked for every gig My flow is sharp like a razor blade Look at all the progress made I don’t need a sugar rush To make the whole city blush [Pre-Chorus] I threw the name tag in the bin Finally let the music in From the counter to the stage Yeah, I’m turning every page No more bitter, no more cold Watch the story now unfold [Chorus] Check the marquee, see the name I ain’t playing any game Ten thousand streams on the screen Living out a neon dream No more bitter coffee cups Everything is looking up Yeah, I’m rising to the top And I’m never gonna stop [Bridge] There were nights I almost quit Wondering if I’d ever fit Looking at the empty room Hoping that the flowers bloom Static in my heavy head Words I should have never said But the sub-bass pulled me through Now I know just what to do [Breakdown] No more orders No more borders Just the lights And the nights [Chorus] Check the marquee, see the name I ain’t playing any game Ten thousand streams on the screen Living out a neon dream No more bitter coffee cups Everything is looking up Yeah, I’m rising to the top And I’m never gonna stop [Post-Chorus] I’m the main shot, no foam Found a rhythm, found a home Watch me go, watch me glow Selling out the local show [Outro]
