World Wants My Name

Calendar page flipped, light on the wall

Red circle breathin, I been ready for it all

Morning sun hit the date like a sign

Ain't out yet but I know it's mine

Backstage wristband hangin

My name big font on the banner

Whole world chant my handle

I walk slow, crowd move faster

Tour bus parked by the tunnel

Whole team packed like a huddle

Security talk in they mics

But I still feel every rumble

From the floor to the nosebleeds shaking

Phone lights up like a wave in the making

Mama on a plane, yeah she made that flight

Whole school watchin when I step to the mic

World wants my name, I feel it in the air

Ain't heard it yet, but it's already there

Lights not on, still I see the flare

World wants my name, I'm ready for the weight

Written on the date, written in the flame

This ain't a hope, it's a callin I claim

Ain't out yet, still they feel the same

World wants my name, world wants my name

World wants my name

Fan sign, table full of markers

Little kid hands me a worn-out poster

Said"I wrote these bars in my notebook too

Tryna be big, tryna be like you"

I laugh, write big on the corner"Dream loud" in a circle for the aura

Selfies stuck in my jaw like a workout

Still I pose, still I hold when they shout out

Airport gates like a meet and greet

Customs know me, they repeat that speech"Where you headed?""Anywhere with a stage"

Passport thick like the lines on my face

World wants my name, I feel it in the air

Ain't heard it yet, but it's already there

Lights not on, still I see the flare

World wants my name, I'm ready for the weight

Written on the date, written in the flame

This ain't a hope, it's a callin I claim

Ain't out yet, still they feel the same

World wants my name, world wants my name

World wants my name

Is this fame or a mirror?
