Bunk Bed Hero Lyrics by Nate Schultz

The Sundown: Legend of the Backyard Kid

2014

[Verse 1]
With twenty minutes til supper starts
Fireflies illuminate my empty Smucker's jars like a bunch of stars
We used to catch bugs and sit up on the monkey bars
High enough to see the city buildings from each others' yards
Couple dozen cars dash around the curb
Pumped cause my dad's home from work
Playing til the sun goes down in the neighborhood
Breaking when the crickets start to mix with the chirps
I gotta get back home, look at the time
Mom told me, "Nate you better get back around 9" so I do
I grab my Razor scooter and cruise
Kicking the gravel with the bottom of my shoes
Street lights shining right beside me
And all the little gaps in between those hide me
I see the purple sky when the moon shines brightly
And whip it into the driveway, I'm back home finally
Cause time flies when you're having fun, don't it?
Remember playing outside, living for the moment?
We weren't thinking through much, just living
Messing up a little, that's a given
Until the clock struck bedtime, 9-10 or later
Spider-man comics I would favor
Up until I fell asleep dreaming it was just another day
Close your eyes, fall asleep, float away...

[Verse 2]
You are now in the world of Shawn and Nate, don't it sound great
Little bit of this, and a little bit of that
Now we got it down pat, was it worth the wait
We do it on our own and we're gunning for the throne
So you better know whatever we deserve we take, plus
Lately I've been feeling like a lot of people wanna love rap but they can't relate
So we gotcha, we gotcha
I paint pictures and people listen, a picture-perfect tradition
My purpose is giving you a verse and these words can be your addiction
Make a person sit back like unh and engage in my composition
Til it grips and performs a surgery perfectly on their vision
So I'm back for the last time, last rhyme
Hoping I can capture the epitome of past times vividly
Lately I've been living in a kid's mind, literally
Writing lyrics trying to channel the inner kid in me
And now it's out, sitting on the table right in front of me
Smiling cause I will become everything that I want to be
Without a doubt feeling like the moment I've been waiting for
Is finally approaching like I'm falling in a dream
Ready to ride it out, me and Shawny working for the moment
We could play our own show and bump The Sundown vibing out
See this is like a movie with the best end
Comes pretty easy when your producer is your best friend

Shout-outs...

They always told me it would go by so fast
But now I'm older and I wish I woulda known that
They always told me it would go by so fast
But now I'm older...
