The Opener

Im just the opener, no one came to see me
Singing all my songs and nobody know em
Im just the opener, handing out my CDs
Standing by the table if they want a photo
Yeah , and Im the first on stage
But they dont know my name
These next few songs will be my 15 of fame
Im the opener, yeah, just the opener
Tours good, its going good so far
I dont get a green room, so I changed in my car
Yeah, I got my, my favorite songs on my setlist
But I cant get none of my homies on the guest list
But **** it they gas me up and call me famous
Girls at the bar probably dont know what my name is
But I aint even trippin, you know I find it funny
Cause I brought a bunch of drugs with my merch money
Im just the opener, yeah thats what I am
And I just came to sing, maybe make a new fan
I know that you dont care, yeah I know where I stand
But I appreciate the love, would you give me a chance
Because Im just the opener, no one came to see me
Singing all my songs and nobody know em
Im just the opener , handing out my CDs
Standing by the table if they want a photo
Yeah, and Im the first on stage
But they dont know my name
These next few songs will be my 15 of fame
Im the opener, yeah, just the opener
Hell no, I didnt get a soundcheck
Yeah, dont even know what time my sets at
Yeah, but thats all part of the biz
Well, if your asking me, that shit just dont makesense
Sleep at a Red Roof Inn, yeah, they nice
My homies shared a bed, so its half the price
At least the venue gave me money for food
But what I do, I just skip the meal and bought more booze
Because Im just the opener, yeah thats what I am
She only hit the show cause she knows the band
She stands at the back like she isnt a fan
But knows the words, gots the merch

Because Im just the opener, no one came to see me
Singing all my songs that nobody knows
Im just the opener, handing out my CDs
Standing by the table if they want a photo
Yeah, and Im the first on stage
But they dont know my name
These next few songs will be my 15 of fame
