Lyrics
(Verse 1)
Dusty mic and coffee stains, on the walls where my dream remains
Strumming chords on a second-hand dream, chasing melodies on a caffeine stream
Open mics and smoky bars, singing songs to passing cars
Hoping someday someone might hear, these whispers carried on the atmosphere
(Chorus)
'Cause I'll know I've made it, when a legend takes a chance
Sings my words and makes you dance,
breathes life into my lonely lines
On a record that spins and shines, black and round, a timeless prize
My melody etched in those tiny grooves, a million hearts where my music moves
(Verse 2)
Paper airplanes with lyrics on wings, sent to labels, unheard of things
Rejection slips piled high to the sky, a symphony of dreams passed me by
But the fire burns, the spirit won't quit, gotta pour my heart into every single hit
One day this tune, it will take flight, and soar on the wings of pure delight
(Chorus)
'Cause I'll know I've made it, when a legend takes a chance
Sings my words and makes you dance,
breathes life into my lonely lines
On a record that spins and shines, black and round, a timeless prize
My melody etched in those tiny grooves, a million hearts where my music moves
(Bridge)
Maybe it's naive, maybe it's bold, but this dream keeps me from growing old
A voice unheard, a story untold, waiting to break free, waiting to unfold
(Chorus)
'Cause I'll know I've made it, when a legend takes a chance
Sings my words and makes you dance,
breathes life into my lonely lines
On a record that spins and shines, black and round, a timeless prize
My melody etched in those tiny grooves, a million hearts where my music moves
(Outro)
Yeah, a million hearts where my music moves, a million hearts where my music moves
That's how I'll know, that's how I'll know, that's how I'll know, I've finally made it, oh
[End]
