Entry-Level Legend

[Verse 1]
Scrollin’ through the listings
“Rockstar needed, day one, lead”
I’m a bullet-point assassin
I’m exactly what they read
Got the grades, got the skills
Got the late-night caffeine chill
I could run your whole building
But you want me to have… been here?
[Pre-Chorus]
Every app says
“Upload history”
But my story’s just
Future tense, you see
[Chorus]
I’m an entry-level legend
In a world that wants a king
Got a hundred open tabs
But not one callback ring (why not?)
Every door says “come on in”
Then the form says “not your turn”
How do I get experience
If everywhere I go just burns? (hey!)
I’m an entry-level legend
That nobody’s ever heard
[Verse 2]
Interview at 10 a.m.
Tie crooked, but my pitch is clean
“Where’d you lead a team before?”
In my head and on my screen
I can code it, I can plan it
I can talk them off the edge
But the moment that they ask me
“Have you done it?” I’m on ledge
[Pre-Chorus]
Every seated smile
Feels like theater
They’re reciting lines
About “years” and “leaders”
[Chorus]
I’m an entry-level legend
In a world that wants a king
Got a hundred open tabs
But not one callback ring (ring, ring)
Every door says “come on in”
Then the form says “not your turn”
How do I get experience
If everywhere I go just burns?
I’m an entry-level legend
That nobody’s ever heard
[Bridge]
Catch-22 in my calendar
First step’s nailed to the second stair
“Come back once you’ve climbed it”
How am I supposed to get there? (yeah)
I’m rehearsing my promotion speech
From a job I’ve never reached
If you hired me a week ago
We’d be halfway to your dreams
[Chorus]
I’m an entry-level legend
In a world that wants a king
Turn these rejections to confetti
Let it stick to all my skin (all my skin)
Every “no” becomes a note
In the anthem that I scream
I’ll be overqualified for
All the jobs I used to dream
I’m an entry-level legend
You’re gonna know what that means (hey!)
