A Lonely Night in Mexico Thinking About Big Sean and Avicii Songtext
von Mike Posner

...And start-up agian. Umm, I think it′ll be an experience for you that, you'll never forget. Probably, with your life changing, I think it′s going to be very hard on your body. I think you're gonna be, umm, shocked at how difficult it is. But I applaud you for trying it, I'm really excited for you. And I [?] so 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
And some shit my father told, it starts hitting home
What the fuck am I 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′ma butterfly flyin' through a broken sky
God servin′ me truth, and I'm open wide
And it takes courage to be still and go inside
I'm on a tip of liberation, watch me toe the line
When a 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
But thirty-first year is a vision quest
I know the answer I′m lookin' for isn′t sex
And it isn't money, isn′t fame
It's something much deeper than I can't explain
And this verse is just a finger pointin′ towards the trail
Soon you 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
