Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I built my world on an air mattress
One lamp, one pen, one promise
Kept it quiet when the rent hit hard
Smiling wide with a tired face
Mama said, "Boy, keep faith in it"
I did, even when the phone stayed mute
Loved too deep, got left on read
Still I showed up, still I do
[Pre-Chorus]
I want the bag, I want the stage
I want a name they can't ignore
I want your touch, I want the truth
I want more, I want more
[Chorus]
Ego on low, ego on low
I keep it tucked, but it won't let go
Air mattress dreams, air mattress dreams
I still believe in the things I can't see
(air mattress dreams)
Ego on low, ego on low
I'm not the man you thought I'd outgrow
Air mattress dreams, air mattress dreams
I want the world, but I want me
(air mattress dreams)
[Verse 2]
Late-night checks, I chase that money
Cheap cologne on a clean white tee
Music first, then the pretty lies
Then the girl who says she knows me
Loyal to the ones who stayed
Even when I had less than air
Lust got teeth, pain got hands
Both kept pulling at my stairs
[Pre-Chorus]
I want the bag, I want the stage
I want a name they can't ignore
I want your touch, I want the truth
I want more, I want more
[Chorus]
Ego on low, ego on low
I keep it tucked, but it won't let go
Air mattress dreams, air mattress dreams
I still believe in the things I can't see
(air mattress dreams)
Ego on low, ego on low
I'm not the man you thought I'd outgrow
Air mattress dreams, air mattress dreams
I want the world, but I want me
(air mattress dreams)
[Bridge]
What if I get rich and stay the same?
What if I make it and lose my name?
What if ordinary is my curse?
I still move first, I still move first
[Chorus]
Ego on low, ego on low
I keep it tucked, but it won't let go
Air mattress dreams, air mattress dreams
I still believe in the things I can't see
(air mattress dreams)
Ego on low, ego on low
I'm not the man you thought I'd outgrow
Air mattress dreams, air mattress dreams
I want the world, but I want me
(air mattress dreams)
