Introduction (Mike Posner/i was born...Part 1) lyrics - Mike Posner & The Legendary Mike Posner Band

In the summer of 2016 my band and I played 66 shows. And, in a vain attempt to impress my band mates, I performed a new poem each night

I would write the poem either immediately after the show before or right before we went on stage or sometimes on the stage itself

These are just as few of those poems collected, intuitively, kind of at random. And I hope you enjoy them. This is "I was born in Detroit on a very very very very very very very cold day"

I Believe (6-24-16) [Live in Indianapolis] lyrics - Mike Posner & The Legendary Mike Posner Band

I believe this to be the truth

And I pray it doesn't bore you

I don't believe life happens to you

I believe life happens for you

I believe in more than I can see

I don't believe in right, I don't believe in wrong

I believe I'm a poem, though you believe I'm a song

I do not believe in dwelling on the shit you never had

I believe I'm a good kid tryna convince the world I'm bad

I believe this is Heaven! I believe this is hell!

I believe it's beautiful to be part of something bigger than yourself

Perhaps I'm the tool of another

A rock to be thrown at the wall

I believe those that really know

Say next to no words at all

So what does that say about me?

What's that say about us?

We're just six stars in the galaxy

Caught in the gravity of a tour bus

I believe that angels sometimes wear tattoos

I believe we like to numb ourselves

With shit food advertisements and bad booze

But I'm not a savior

Shit Kev, I'd be content with surviving

Later I'll sing my more popular songs, that's all you really want

I believe in Matthew Musto

I believe in Jacob Scesney

I believe each one of us is free to believe what we want to believe!

Make some noise if you agree!

We are free. Do you agree?

We are free. Do you agree?

We are free. Do you agree?

I believe the prophet speaks softly

This is all a dream

I believe that beautiful things do not beg to be seen

Beautiful things do not beg to be seen

I believe in God

Though I couldn't tell you why

I do not believe he's an old white man sitting on top of the sky

Rather a twinkle in an iris, an iris purple in bloom

I believe you can be happy in December just like you can be sad in June!

I believe I might not belong here

Maybe I showed up too soon

But for some odd reason

I believe in every single living, breathing, beautiful soul inside of this room!

There is nothing wrong with you!

Or you, or you, or you, or you, or you, or you, or you

And sometimes people come along and they try to change you to somebody new

Your teachers try to change you to somebody new

Your parents try to change you to somebody new

Your friends try to change you to somebody new

The TV tries to change you to somebody new

But when that happens all you have to do

Is say, "Don't you ever, don't you ever!

Don't you ever ask the sun to shine more like the moon."

See I believe in love

I'm probably young and naïve

But I believe

I believe

Dear Mom (8-2-2016) [Live in Chicago] lyrics - Mike Posner & The Legendary Mike Posner Band

Dear Mom

When I was young me and Mom had beef

17-years-old kicked out on the street. I deserved that

I'm ashamed of the way I used to speak to you

Wish I could but I can't reverse that

Especially to you

Your daddy told you a woman's place is in the house and not in the school

You paid your own tuition, got your own degree

Started your own business, and then you had me

How can I repay the lady that looked me in the eyes when I took my first breath

Held my little hand when I took my first step

I can't wait to sell out that arena on my own for the first time

You always told me

It's not your first try, it's how many tries after that

I mean how lucky am I

That I was born and you were mine?

Life's crazy

You know, my parents used to worry about me

'Cause I barely talked to anybody

Just made beats

Now isn't it ironic I get paid by the syllable?

I gotta thank them though, I know it can be difficult

As I tiptoe in and out of zip codes

All on a mission to love- that's what I live for!

I got big dreams Ma, I got big goals!

You see my old ones now because I lived those! Whoo!

You gotta admit Ma

I told you I'd get into Duke, and I did Ma

I told you I would get signed, and I did Ma

Look at this Ma!

Look at this Ma!

But as I get older, you do too

Our time gets shorter, and that's just truth

So I leave with three words

They are not eloquent

They are cliché

And they are not clever

They are:

I

Love

You

This Is My Poker Face --- :) (8-5-2016) [Live in St. Louis] lyrics - Mike Posner & The Legendary Mike Posner Band

Are you entertained?

Are we everything you hoped for? Good

Screams and smiles ain't really what we go for no more

Results in being in a cold war with my own ego

I'm floating on an ocean of solipsism, no shore

I gotta text from my ex

It said, "An artist, by definition, can never belong."

The bird does not sing because it has an answer

It sings because it has a song

Maybe my songs are songs

And my microphone is pointing God's finger

Maybe I'm a prophet wearing the mask of a pop singer

Maybe I'm a sociopath, hoping the mainstream media picks me next

Maybe I'm a fake, I'm just here for the money and the free sex

Maybe I'm just tryna get my tour bus moving as fast as the Earth spins, but in the opposite direction

So I finally feel like I'm standing still then

Maybe I'm on the brink of enlightenment

I'm David reincarnated

Maybe I just can't figure out how to separate

My love from my hate

Maybe my bar is too high

Thus my heart is still on the shelf

Maybe I'm just scared of putting time and commitment into anything but myself

Maybe beauty is more easily seen by the untrained eye

Maybe it's impossible to be a voice of a generation!

And somebody's boyfriend at the same time

Maybe I'm headed for a disaster

I'm inching towards hell

Or maybe, I'm on the tip of something magnificent

Only time will tell

Maybe having no shtick has become my shtick

Maybe I only smile on stage

And back there I'm a dick

Maybe I never took that pill in Ibiza. I made it up!

I know what sells, you're here

Maybe Mike Posner's a fake name, I'm really somebody else

Maybe I'm Illuminati

A mathematician, an engineer

Or maybe I really am Mike Posner!

One-sixth of the dopest fuckin' band you'll ever hear!

Maybe I'm what it looks like

When God moves at a slower pace

I'll never tell you who I really am

Because this... this, is my poker face

Gratitude (8-7-2016) [Live in Park City] lyrics - Mike Posner

I love you back

Could be worse, huh?

Look where you are!

Reading the calendar today it said Park City

We thought we were going to like a dive bar

Could be worse, right?

This piece is called 'Gratitude'

My band teacher told me quote

"Mike, you ain't shit."

But it wasn't until I heard that that I quit

And bought that Motif, made them dope beats

Turned that old car to this window seat

Where it all makes sense

Now God gives me hints every time I burn incense

Don't that make you so incense? Mr. Z

Whoo! I blew up and ain't visit your class since

But wait.. I didn't write this to say I told you so

Because without you I never would've sold out shows

I thought that was worth a page or two

Dear Mr. Z, this is dedicated to you

Gratitude, thank you

My dad called when Uncle Fred died

I didn't want my mom to see me cry

So I got 'em all out on the flight back

People looking at me funny but it's like that

See Uncle Freddie was a good guy

He was proud when I started to win

My aunt told me he loved me

And I swear to God she gave me one of his pens

And the same pen that I wrote this song with

The same pen that I'm about to put my team on with

'Cause he keeps giving me dope shit

And people keep on telling me "Mike, you're so sick"

I hope that's enough to change your mood

Transform a Utah sky from grey to blue

I thought that was worth a page or two

Dear Uncle Fred, this is dedicated to you

Gratitude, thank you

This verse can never pay you back

Shit

A lot of my friends never had no dads

And before we knew I had a six-style

Used to drive me to the studio to rap on the six mile

Showed me that a real man ain't afraid because he hugs, kisses, and cries

April to April stays faithful

Loves, listens, and tries

So when I do find Mrs. Right

Best believe that my game gonna be zipper tight

Like you're still making Mom breakfast every morning

You start her car up in the winter when it's snowing

Remember when you broke it down in New Orleans?

I didn't tell you I had my phone out recording it

Said, "Why'd you marry Mom?"

Said, "Well, Michael, in my heart, I knew I loved your mother."

And I said, "Is your heart more important than your head?"

Said, "I don't know, you're 28, you've got to figure some things out on your own."

Now that, ladies and gentlemen, is some g-shit

When my son's 28 I'm gonna show him this poem

He's gonna need this

I'm sorry, but I thought that was worth a page or two

Dear Dad, this is dedicated to you

Gratitude, thank you

I Got You (8-26-2016) [Live in Edmonton] lyrics - Mike Posner & The Legendary Mike Posner Band

I got that soul

I got too much pride

I got a funny job

And there's no place to hide

But I got them songs

I got that real shit, I'm a savage

I've got the looks and voice too

Baby I'm the whole package

I got bars for days

Because I've been scarred in ways that are hard to say

Bodyguards can't save me from myself

I got exes

I got commitments I'm still running from

I got shooting stars, I got darkness, I got nightfall, I got suns

I got Jesus Christ

I got Buddha

I got Mohammed in my swag

I got piano fingers

I got 50 songs in the bag

I got the music and the poetry in my head

It's always going in the background

Zach, I got the psilocybin running in my veins

Couple mushrooms hidden in the black lounge

Now I got your attention

And I can do whatever I want with it

I got a need to be loved

Spotlight isn't gone is it?

I got my daddy in my heart

Even when he's not around

Tell Bruce it's cool when he wants to chill

The Mike Posner Band, we here, we got it now

I got a legacy in the Midwest

My old stomping grounds

I done come this far, ain't no way in hell I'm stopping now

I came this far, ain't no way in hell

Ain't no way in hell I'm stopping now

I got that good cologne

I got that courage inside of me

I got one of the best bands in the world

Standing right here behind me

I got a kick drum for a heart

I got a hi-hat in my step

I got this feeling in my mind we might be the best

I got the vibe in my veins, I'm tryna explain

I'm done tryna explain why I'm so strange

I got a freedom fighter's heart, a Navy Seal's discipline

I got North Carolina blue and a grey found only in Michigan

I got a mother that's a killer

A sister that's a hippie

I got way too many women in my past

Groupies in every city

Groupies in every city

And I got money now, you can't buy me

I keep telling my managers all of this shit I will not do

I got Scesney, I got James, I got Nate, I got Kev, I got Ben

And Edmonton, tonight, I guess I got you

And didn't I? Didn't I get you?

Didn't we cut through this shit like a knife?

I got a question

If I keep pretending I'm not gonna have a death

How can I live a good life?

No cheers for that, but it doesn't matter

No

If I keep pretending I'm not gonna have a death

How can I live a good life?

My friends say I got it all

I tell 'em I only got love

I got what I got

And maybe, maybe that's enough

Thank you to the Mike Posner band

I Met Kanye (8-31-2016) [Live in Minneapolis] lyrics - Mike Posner & The Legendary Mike Posner Band

When I was 21 I met Kanye

I was really excited because I was a struggling musician

He was one of my heroes

And I knew if he liked my music he could change my life

My friend Big Sean introduced us

Then Sean played him a song of mine

"Kanye, this is Mike. He made the song you just heard."

And he said, "Cool!" and gave me a fist bump

Awkward silence ensued

So I said, "Did you like it?"

He said to me, "No."

And he wasn't being mean, he was just being honest

He's not the kind of guy to tell you he likes something when he doesn't think it's good

And I must have been wearing my broken heart on my face

Because he said to me, "Sorry, sorry, man."

Sean bumped it, you set it, I had to spike it

And in that moment all I wanted to do was make more music

I couldn't wait

So that's exactly what I did

It lit a fire up in me

It lit a fire up in me

It lit a fire up in me

And no setback

No hater hiding behind a keyboard

No member of the press

No sickness in the family

No bodily injury

No bad day

Nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing could ever burn out

Massey's on my side, it's my turn now

We're going straight to the top boys

Buckle them seat belts, hop on this back right here

I don't need help

I didn't come here to tell you that I can do some things that you can't do

I didn't come to change you

I came to tell you that if you look deep enough inside, underneath the curfews, perfumes, etc

I bet you'd find a flame too

I want to thank you for having us

We're the Mike Posner Band

Oh yeah, and I saw Kanye a few years later at the EMAs

And he said, "Mike Posner, I really like some of your songs."

The Soldier & the Boy (9-1-2016) [Live in Madison] lyrics - Mike Posner & The Legendary Mike Posner Band

I heard the story of the soldier and the boy

Not too long ago, there was a soldier in Afghanistan

And he's about 6 months into his campaign

And he's really struggling, he's in and out of combat every day

He was drinking a lot, and he keeps hearing from these towns people that there's this boy

There's this magical boy, and he's, he's meditating under a tree

And most of the time he hears it, he says, "Ah, that's a bunch of bullshit"

But one night, he's especially missing home, and he's drinking, and he thinks, "I'm gonna go find this fucking boy under the tree"

So he climbs up the mountain, and sure enough

There's a little kid, maybe 10 or 11 years old

And he's sitting under the tree cross-legged with his eyes closed

And the soldier says, "Hello"

The boy doesn't move

The solider starts to get mad

He said, "You don't know. If you know so much, teach me about Heaven and Hell."

The boy opens his eyes slowly, and he says, "You want me to teach you about Heaven and Hell?

Look at you. You smell bad. You're not a real soldier. You got dip in your mouth, you reek of alcohol, you're drunk

I can't teach you about Heaven and Hell."

And the soldier's getting madder and madder

The veins in his neck are starting to poke out

He takes his revolver out, and points it at the boy's head

And the boy says, "That's Hell."

The soldier realizes this boy has just sacrificed his life

He put it on the line to teach him

He puts the gun down and starts to cry, and the boy says, "That's Heaven."

My name's Mike Posner, we're The Mike Posner Band, thank you, guys

Introduction (Mike Posner/i was born... Part 2) lyrics - Mike Posner & The Legendary Mike Posner Band

These are a couple more poems from the summer of 2016, that I thought didn't stink

There are lot more of these on YouTube, it's hard to get the rights to legally release them

So enjoy and if you really like 'em, go down the YouTube hole and there's more

I love you, this is "I was born in Detroit on a very very very very very very very cold day", Part 2

Prophecy (7-26-2016) [Live in Washington D.C.] lyrics - Mike Posner & The Legendary Mike Posner Band

It's OK, you can just listen to this part

We walk inside packed rooms

And get the hands up like statues

Me and James, we ain't got no home to go back to

But who needs a home when you got a family?

When you got the microphone, who needs a Grammy?

Poetry written underneath a groupie

Fast forward two hours I'm on stage screaming

"Who you gonna substitute me with?"

Another sheet of loose leaf, rich

Another pair of blue jeans, stripped

Balled up in the corner of the back lounge

Evidence of a commitment to never back down

The spoils of victory

I went from class clown to king! King! King!

You could see me I'm in the black crown

And I smell good too

We out here, we're talking 'bout prophecy

Prophecy, on my mind constantly

People get rich when they take the time to copy me

Mike Posner's Odyssey, don't forget the apostrophe

My prerogative is to shine bright baby, no Bobby B

I got a new philosophy: honesty, honesty

Do whatever you feel and offer no apology

Make some damn noise I want this night in my biography!

I said make some damn noise I want this night in my biography!

Make some damn—no, I want every night in my biography

Make it a million pages long, we made it here impossibly

[?]

You show our velocity

Mama are you watching me?

Uncle Fred are you watching me?

Stewie are you watching me?

David Foster Wallace are you watching me?

We rocked every arena in this country, no choreography

I said we rocked every arena in this country, no choreography

It's hard to be a prodigy in a democracy

People don't really care about equality

As long as they got their shopping sprees

Right?

But I tell you something else

I'd rather earn another million dollars than wake up and win the lottery

My bibliography will be one word long: "God"

We talkin' 'bout prophecy

Prophecy, on my mind constantly

If we're considering real shit the Mike Posner Band gotta be

On the tip of your tongue

When I listen to one

Let me cool off

Y'all doing alright over here?

We're on a world tour

We are chasing something

Something ineffable, a feeling

You get it when everyone's listening, form the front row to the ceiling

Anyone had one of those moments where everything just sorta makes sense? Say yeah

It's better than sex, it's better than drugs, it's true

"You don't wanna be high like me"

Maybe I was wrong. You do

'Cause I got the feeling right now D.C.!

Do you?

I said I got the feeling right now, do you?

I got the feeling right now! Do you?

Put your hands together for the Mike Posner Band

Talkin' 'bout prophecy, prophecy

On my mind constantly

Bibliography will be one word long: "God"

You Already Are (7-29-2016) [Live in Louisville] lyrics - Mike Posner & The Legendary Mike Posner Band

Sometimes the truth don't come in a pretty melody

Sometimes it rains down, like a thunderstorm in July

Making you ask, "How close can heaven get?"

Sometimes it rains down like a crash symbol under Kevin's stick

Or a nasty strung under James Bone's pick

A pretty note under Jacob Scesne's lip

Or a blues riff, offa Ben's fingertip

Or when Nate plays a funky lick

Oh shit...

Just wanna take this in for a second

We weren't promised this man

Wasn't so long ago I was making beats in mom's basement

Now I'm on the big stage my haters can't say shit!

What's the difference between knowledge, and wisdom?

I looked at the newspaper, filled with the names of crooks, liars, and schemers

And five years from now the newspaper will be filled with the names of a new set of crooks, liars, and schemers

That's why after we do the hits I always take the time to put the guitar down

Because two hundred years from now the words of this poem will be just as beautiful as they are now

Politics is to poetry, as knowledge is to wisdom, that's the difference

And we just want a guy we can memorize

A lover who never lies

A million likes on Facebook

And a neighbourhood that's been gentrified

We're so busy taking the heart, and wrapping it up in a body that's beautiful and tanned and perfect

And wrapping the tanned body up in clothes that are stylish and expensive

And putting the tanned body in stylish clothes inside of a car that makes our neighbour jealous

And putting the jealousy breeding car inside of a garage that makes our neighbours more jealous

And putting the garage inside of a house that makes our neighbours more jealous

That we forget

We forget about the little heart

That's inside of the body

That's inside of the clothes

That's inside of the car

Inside of the garage

Inside of the house

How's your heart feel?

Mine's been hurting lately

We're walking into traffic

Playing Pokeman Go!

Trying to score

We are killing ourselves

We would literally rather die than be bored

Sometimes the truth don't come in a pretty melody

And sometimes it's not followed by cheers

I live how I want

So I wanna live

And I give you what you need so in time

You want what I give

We're running around tryna get perfect

Perfect school, perfect job

But it's not that far

The first step to getting perfect

Is realizing you already are

Can You? (8-1-2016) [Live in Grand Rapids] lyrics - Mike Posner & The Legendary Mike Posner Band

Cigarettes and a sip of wine

We grew up

Tryna fill in missing time

With getting high

Or on the cheers of the crowd

Or on God on this divine

Rooted to oak tree

I hold the

Record for turning the most nose bleeds to front row seats

Most nose bleeds to front row seats

Tryin' to not take this whole time for granted

Granted

I am four years older now

It's hard to imagine getting the cold shoulder now

We don't feel like a band we feel like six soldiers out

On the battlefield every night

And we play our asses off so you can have memories like

So you can have memories like this

This has been described as

"A Moment Of Being" by Virginia Woolf

"It" by Kerouac

"Rapture" by the scriptures

And most recently

"This" by me

Strobe lights and storms

Hit songs from dawns

Embarrassed at the fact that I still want awards

I told Big Sean if I got signed I would never buy a chain

I bought four

I lost 'em all on a Delta flight

And I haven't bought more

I think I'm 'a take the money

Put a message in a bottle and hope it washes up on God's shore

And inside it will read

"The journey to more is a circle

It starts with wanting more

And it ends with wanting more

It's great to love your enemy

It's better to not be in a war"

That's why I continue on this odyssey with these ten dudes

We vagabonding a tour bus across this country from venue to venue

Just to tell you

Wake the fuck up, you are eating the menu

Put your phone down wake up, you are eating the menu!

Grand Rapids wake up, you are eating the menu!

Wake the fuck up, you are eating the menu!

You are eating the fucking menu!

You are eating the menu

I can see a better life in my head

A better world

Can you?

Alive (8-3-2016) [Live in Indianapolis] lyrics - Mike Posner & The Legendary Mike Posner Band

Sexism shrouded in chivalry

Little men with big egos try to belittle me

They got me in a pickle

But I've been freeing minds with riddles

Ever since little league

Literally

People sit behind their little screens and doubt me

Meanwhile life in my hometown goes on just fine without me

Every time I go back, with a little more money, and a little less time

Promises made to be fulfilled next time

People don't have no patience so they try to test mine

That's OK

I got my notebook, I got my voice

I gotta be free, I got no choice

That's an interesting sentence: I gotta be free, I've got no choice

You know, I still go in the dressing room before the show every night

Put a little gel in my hair

I'm still tryna be cool

But the funny thing about that is

Everyone knows when you're trying, so you never actually do

And the even funnier thing about that is,

Everyone else is trying too

So I wonder: if I drop the guard, if I cut the shit for just this one moment

Would you?

Would you?

People we never met made all our rules

And we feel strong when we bend them

Men in suits start wars

Kids in camouflage end them

I'm supposed to entertain people

but I'm not supposed to offend them

Fuck it

There are more valuable things in this world than attention

[?] attention, when a cheer ends

You don't know what to do, so you cheer again

See I could say, "cheer."

Or I could say, "Don't cheer!"

Isn't that weird?

You don't hear words

You hear inflection, and intention

Which means somebody saying "I hate you"

Might really be saying "I love you, I need affection"

A change in perspective

Brought to you by yours truly

An outlook on life

Brought to you by parents they didn't pick in war movies

Tour groupies

I was born goofy

And America tried to straighten me out

Towards Porsches, fortresses, porches, bowls full of porridge

Who'd've thunk a crooked line could be so damn gorgeous?

The eyes of the beloved- that's you

Met a little girl the other day she asked where I wanna be,

What I wanna be in a year?

I said, "Alive."

This One --- :) (Icarus Problems) [8-17-2016] [Live in Anaheim] lyrics - Mike Posner & The Legendary Mike Posner Band

I was born in Detroit on a very very very very very very very cold day

And most of my life since has been about trying to warm up

The big tour bus, money, more sluts, blood gore guts

I moved to LA seven years ago

In an honest attempt to do and get more stuff

Mission accomplished

Now what, what now

All I got is this money and this skepticism of love now

When you're up this high everyone just wants you to come down

Icarus problems, but at least the sun's out, right

At least the sun's out

A day loses to nightfall

I am right on the edge

I might fall

That's why it's fun for you to watch me

'Cause like all pretty things, I will end with no warning, apologis los siento, no merch, no momento

When God slows the tempo there will be no crescendo

This is real life it's not a game no Nintendo

Sacrifices made for an art that you can't touch

People think you're weird when you practice this much

That's how these six loners, became us

That's how these ten thousand people became us

That's how these ten thousand people became us

I'm movin' away, I'm selling my house

LA, this is my farewell poem

When I come back here, here will not be home

I'm goin' to chase something, and I think I'm getting close

I thought it was in this city but it's not

It's somewhere out on those roads

And at this very moment, the city's lights dim some

And my face is making the same face that everyone makes in LA

This one

Cheers (9-17-2016) [Live at the Forum, Los Angeles] lyrics - Mike Posner & The Legendary Mike Posner Band

It's the last night of the tour

I told the boys at the beginning to look at each other

The men on your left and right will soon become your brothers

And I don't mean to brag but I was right

Tomorrow our lives go back to normal

Post-tour depression

We celebrate tonight

Here's to sixty-six shows

In three continents

In three months

Here's to playing your hearts out in each one of 'em we never half-assed it once

Here's to the roadies and the riggers

Build the stage and the lights every day

And when me, Nic and Demi are done being cool tonight in about two hours

They're gonna pack all this shit up and take it away

Here's to Kane and Batrell

Here's to Andre and Zac

For making us lookand sound good on the stage and also in our packs

Here's to Rob Dougan he never turns off

Here's to super Matt, his last tour, his farewell tour

I think in Massachusetts he'll find what he's looking for

Here's to the songs, where do they come from?

Nobody knows

Here's to the groupies, making us feel less alone after the shows

Here's to the audiences

When you add 'emup, this summer we played for five hundred and twelve thousand people, that's over half a million fans

And most of all, hee's to the immaculate, the impalpable, The Legendary Mike Posner Band

Heres's to Jimmy, ere's to Nate, here's to Kev, here's to Ben on the keys

And of course, Cali's own, hahahaha, the amazing Jacob Scesney

I'm Babe Ruth, I'm calling my shot

These boys right here, we goin' straight to the top

I will not stop

I will not stop

I will not stop

I will not stop

I will not stop

I will not stop

I will not stop

I will not stop

I will not stop

I will not stop

I will not stop until I'm looking down from the top

Of course, things could go wrong

My next album might not hit

Maybe I start drinking too much and it all falls to shit

But I don't think so

In fact, next year I think I'll be right here

Here's to the future, now

Here's to us, cheers
