Lyrics
Butterflies in my chest doing backflips Open mic night, my name on the list Palms sweating, I wipe 'em on my jeans Fourth in the line, I can hear the speakers scream Shaking like a leaf but I came to play Nerves and excitement are the same thing today Sneakers laced tight, got my rhymes in my head Take a breath, count to four, here we go instead Lights come up, heart goes boom Every eye in the whole wide room Hands shaking, mic check one two Nervous means I care, let me show you what I do Hands shaking, mic check one two Turn the fear to fuel and I'm coming through Hey, hey, one two, one two Hands shaking, but I'm coming through Host says my name and the floor goes quiet Step to the mic, kill the doubt, start the riot First line stumbles then the second one lands Crowd nods along and I'm finding my stance Skye on the hook like a sunrise bright Voice in the speakers turns the shake to light Every shaky step was a step up the stairs Now the whole room's singing like they're already there Lights come up, heart goes boom Every eye in the whole wide room Hands shaking, mic check one two Nervous means I care, let me show you what I do Hands shaking, mic check one two Turn the fear to fuel and I'm coming through Hey, hey, one two, one two Hands shaking, but I'm coming through If you're waiting in the wings, take a breath Nobody's ready, that's the secret, nothing left Say your name, say it loud, let it ring Stage is just a floor, and you're about to sing Hands shaking, mic check one two Nervous means I care, let me show you what I do Hands shaking, mic check one two Turn the fear to fuel and I'm coming through Hey, hey, one two, one two Hands shaking, but I'm coming through One two, one two Coming through
