Mike McGovern, Joee Vee - Skyline Lyrics

If the early bird gets the worm
What's the late one get
We don't know
Cause we don't listen to the late boys yeah
We just make noise here
It's been eight, nine years
Maybe ten or eleven y'all don't care
Just as long as I got the mic and I'm yelling at air
Don't even dare compare me
To the rare see barely even come close
Even though I have been giving you the utmost
Ha, like I'ma raise the bar when I'm subpar
I am so far in this game though
Eight mixtapes nine albums
Who's counting though
I doubt them
When they tell me I got skill
I nod my head like it's not real
The old proud me just got killed
I'm real sorry I ain't strong willed
You can find me on the balcony
Singing to myself
Singing to myself while I'm
Staring at the nighttime skyline
I'm sorry you missed me
I just been reminiscing wit the skyline
I'm in the studio it's pitch black
Lights off I just sit back
Then my phone lights up
It's a text from my main man Joee what's that
Yo it's two in the morning
This is new
Man it better not be stupid
So I lean ta pick it up
It's a message bout my music
How right he's going through it
And he finds it therapeutic
So he's fint ta write a song, yup
That's the motivation that I need
I'm glad you're doing better bro here's to Joee Vee
I realize now it's been a while you put a project, out
But here we go
It's a trip to garage band
I been battling demons too and it's a ride man
Hi man I'm just here ta tell ya they're all mirages
Any step is a misstep in the eyes of the wrong guy
You can find me on the balcony
Singing to myself
Singing to myself while I'm
Staring at the nighttime skyline
I'm sorry you missed me
I just been reminiscing wit the skyline
I'm real sorry you miss me
It's been a while since someone's tried to convince me
I gotta let 'em know what's going on in me
A man of many words so my vocal box venting
Just pretending it don't bother me is tempting
I can't break yet, so my back is just bending
And yeah I get it, it's a tough season
But what's a door without a lock for you to put the key in
So I'm leaving
Done with all the drama
Daddy momma soap opera
This is my life
I leave it at the alter
And say thank you to my brother that believed in me from day one
I promise that it's worth all that it cost ya
So what's a dream if it don't see the day
And what's a gift if you're afraid to give it away
It's coming back to me actually trying for catastrophe
You ain't heard the last of me
You can find me on the balcony
Singing to myself
Singing to myself while I'm
Staring at the nighttime skyline
I'm sorry you missed me
I just been reminiscing wit the skyline
Ooohh
I'm singing to myself
Singing to myself while I'm
Staring at the nighttime skyline
I'm sorry you missed me
I just been reminiscing wit the skyline

If the early bird gets the worm
What's the late one get
We don't know
Cause we don't listen to the late boys yeah
We just make noise here
