Nothing to Us lyrics

(Chorus - The Blue) x2
My heart beats like thumpidy thump
Got to get the crowd up like jumpidy jump
Way back in high school, they weren't bumping to us
But now we step up on the stage and it's nothing to us

(Bridge - The Blue)
My heart beats like
My heart beats like
My heart beats like thumpidy thump
My heart beats like
My heart beats like
My heart beats like don’t be lazy, put the work in

(Verse 1 - The Blue)
I don't believe in handouts, I think you've got to work for this
think you've got to hit the road and sell merch for this
if I don't give you all my heart, am I worth a lis
I mean it's nothing if you don't know what your purpose is
grade 8, I would lay wake, listen to music way late
like if I really want it, better make haste
they told me labels got all the power
so we put in the hours so we can say it's ours
and sometimes life's out of shape, just doesn't work out
Like selling out a show and the next nobody turns out
Turn out, you burn out, you do your thing
And at the end of the night, you hope they sing
Don’t really do it for the money, but man, it’s a nice addition
Don’t really see much around me, but man, have I got a vision
Now I’ve got to convince people I’m worth the listen
And my folks that this life I’m living will make a living because

(Chorus - The Blue) x2
My heart beats like thumpidy thump
Got to get the crowd up like jumpidy jump
Way back in high school, they weren't bumping to us
But now we step up on the stage and it's nothing to us

(Verse 2 - Selly Cisco)
Said it’s nothing to me, I’m up in them trees smoking
I’m loving the beach, I’m cuffing my jeans, rolling
I’m a hundred degrees, but this is nothing to me
But when I’m working, I might need a moment
Yeah, they’re saying Selly said I need to get the celly
To send a message
These sentimental memories pester my adolescence
A pessimist suppressed by the memories of depression
Manifesting my inner pain, so I can learn to get better
I’m on the road to success, I’m finding my grips
I’ve been holding my breath, I’m starting to slip
I’m as cold as it gets, but hot as permits
I’m positive God gave me an honest calling for this
My momma was kicking me on to the curb, I was broke
I’m homeless, alone, I had to call up my homes for places to go
Now I take a place on my throne
I’m playing these chords and now I feel the bass in my throat because

(Chorus - The Blue) x2
My heart beats like thumpidy thump
Got to get the crowd up like jumpidy jump
Way back in high school, they weren't bumping to us
But now we step up on the stage and it's nothing to us

(Verse 3 - The Blue)
They used to tell me that my mixtapes suck
Now when I hit the road, they all wish me luck
But have you ever been
Labelled a future great by your mentors
Just for them to seem to not to be able to sense more
Pick up the next act and proceed to bench your
Sorry behind, like you're great and all, but you're sort of behind
But with time, I learned they did me a favor
I stopped waiting for chances and made it work in my favor
Had to pull myself from sitting right down where the crowd is
Now I get the whole place packed like I'm moving houses
You want the steak, I want the cow
You trying to wait, I want it now
Chicka chow, man
I hit the stage and I shut down the show
And if you like it, tell everybody you know that

(Chorus - The Blue) x2
My heart beats like thumpidy thump
Got to get the crowd up like jumpidy jump
Way back in high school, they weren't bumping to us
But now we step up on the stage and it's nothing to us

(Outro - The Blue)
My heart beats like
My heart beats like
My heart beats like thumpidy thump
My heart beats like
My heart beats like
My heart beats like don’t be lazy, put the work in
