And start-up agian
Um, I think it'll be an experience for you that,
you'll never forget
Probably will life changing,
I think it's gonna be very hard on your body
I think you're gonna be, um,
shocked at how difficult it is
But I applaud you for trying it,
I'm really excited for you
And like Aunt Becky says,
"nobody gets hurt," so just be safe
And I love you
It's hard to explain what
I got the vision for
It's almost like I'm tryna
sing a hidden note
And I can't even get it out,
though it's it my throat
I get so frustrated, I feel like a misanthrope
I start feeling like my whole
life isn't dope
And I've ruined everything
with what I didn't know
Then some shit my father told
me, starts hitting home
What the fuck am I even
here livin' for?
I miss my friends,
we don't talk as much as we used to
I'm too busy checking on
YouTube, and scrolling on IG
I tend to get glued to various
distractions as my life floats by
Have I just been checked
out the whole time?
I spend 85% of it online
And for the things that really matter
I got no time (no time)
But wait,
if I can get myself out of this broke mood
Then maybe all my listeners
could have hope too
Yeah, that's what I'm gon' do
I become who I am from all the
shit I go through
Keep walkin'
If I could write my name across
the sky for all to see
Then I would, if I could bring myself to
understand what you are, then I would
And I would, if I could,
if I could, then I would
And I would, if I could,
if I could, then I would
And I would, if I could,
if I could, then I would
And I would, if I could, if I could,
then I would, and I would
I'm a butterfly flyin'
through a broken sky
God servin' me truth,
and I'm open wide
It takes courage to be still and go inside
I'm on a tip of liberation,
watch me toe the line
When yoga pose hits a yoga pose
A part of me that I really
hate showin' shows
You get a taste from my
post of quotes
But my inner growth is something
no one knows
And I hope it shows
In my eyes, in my music,
in my vibe, in my kindness
And in my stride,
in the grand art piece that is my life
And again, this is just a brush stroke
You've been running long enough,
child, come home
Break it down, universe means one song
You wanna taste life,
swim into the unknown
I know that I did my best
I'm not designed to eat,
sleep, sit, and text
My thirty-first year year is a vision quest
I know the answer that
I'm lookin' for isn't sex
And it isn't money,
isn't fame
It's something much deeper
than I can explain
And this verse is just a finger
pointin' towards the trail
Soon you're gonna have to
walk it for yourself
Keep walkin'
If I could write my name across
the sky for all to see
Then I would, if I could bring myself to understand what you are,
then I would
And I would, if I could,
if I could, then I would
And I would, if I could,
if I could, then I would
And I would, if I could,
if I could, then I would
And I would, if I could, if I could,
then I would, and I would
If you could give a wish to future Mike when he
sets off to his walk in a few months
What would that be?
I wish you remember this
is what you wanted
This is, this is what you wanted
I understand intellectually there gonna be
terrible moments on this journey
Where I'll wanna give up, where my body hurts,
where I'm thinking
"Why the heck did I choose to do this?
This was so stupid"
And the reason you chose to do it
Was to feel what you're feeling right now,
and decide to keep going
Mike Posner
