Intro Vegas raised a villain with a halo in his hand Bright lights on my back, but I was built for somethin’ grand Five stars on my chest, still felt broke in my bones Still that kid chasin’ thunder from a city made of smoke Saturday, I watched Oklahoma Sunday, I watched the Cowboys All that gold, all that grit All that blood in the noise Now the whole damn country callin’ But they don’t know what I know Some names you pick for fame Some names you pick for your soul Verse 1 Bishop Gorman gold boy, runnin’ through the doubts Every coach in America tryna map my future out USC in the left hand, Texas on the right Everybody want a piece when your name get hot at night They see stars, see stats, see a headline in cleats They don’t see them early mornings, them prayers, that heat Don’t see mama in the kitchen with her hands locked tight Ask God to guard her boy when the fame get bright I came up where the strip glow red and the dreams get sold Where young kids learn fast and the nights turn cold But I was different from the jump, had a storm in my veins I wasn’t built for bein’ famous, I was built to leave a stain Pre-Chorus Yeah, they love you when you’re winnin’ Love the shine, love the flex But I was hearin’ somethin’ deeper Every time I caught my breath From the desert to the crimson From the neon to the plains I could hear a ghost call my name Chorus I’m a five-star nobody from Sin City Raised too wild, raised too gritty Whole world lookin’, but they still can’t see This ain’t about hype, this is history From Vegas lights to an Oklahoma sky Heart full of fire, got legacy in my eyes Love hit quick, but the roots run deep I chose that road ‘cause it was choosin’ me Verse 2 Official visit, Norman air hit different on my skin Felt like every brick around me knew exactly where I’d been Met the team, met the staff, heard the pride inside they voice Ain’t no fake inside that building, every breath felt like a choice Walked through halls where legends still breathe through the walls You can feel it in your chest when a real standard calls Not a trend, not a wave, not a flash in the pan More like somethin’ carved in stone long before I was a man Then I saw her one night and the room went slow Ashley had that kind of look make a hard heart fold We talked like we’d been somewhere together before Like two sparks in the dark findin’ one open door Spent time leanin’ in, talkin’ dreams, talkin’ pain Gettin’ past all the surface, all the spotlight, all the game I ain’t know who she belonged to, didn’t know her last name’s weight Just knew when she smiled at me, it felt a lot like fate Pre-Chorus Yeah, I came for the visit But I left with somethin’ more A town that felt like destiny And a girl I couldn’t ignore Still, there’s a line a man must walk When the whole world screams “choose” And the truth don’t get clearer Till there’s somethin’ real to lose Chorus I’m a five-star nobody from Sin City Raised too wild, raised too gritty Whole world lookin’, but they still can’t see This ain’t about hype, this is history From Vegas lights to an Oklahoma sky Heart full of fire, got legacy in my eyes Love hit quick, but the roots run deep I chose that road ‘cause it was choosin’ me Bridge State title night, helmet on, blood in the roar Three hats on the table, but I’d been here before In my mind, in them Saturdays, in them dreams as a kid Some choices get made long before they ever live Yeah, Ashley was a memory burnin’ warm in the flame But I wasn’t pickin’ a future just to chase a pretty name Nah, this was deeper This was older This was bigger than me This was all them years of watchin’ crimson on TV Breakdown USC got shine Texas got power But Oklahoma got ghosts in the walls and storms in the hour And I’d rather be part of somethin’ sacred than famous for a day So when that mic got put in front me I knew exactly what to say Final Chorus I’m a five-star nobody from Sin City Now the whole damn map ride with me From desert dust to that Sooner red I took every dream they said and bled it instead From Vegas lights to an Oklahoma sky I found who I was when it was time to decide Love came fast, but the roots run deep I chose Oklahoma ‘cause it chose me Outro This the sound of the gates openin’ This the sound of a name gettin’ heavy This the sound of a boy from Vegas Turnin’ into somethin’ ready Five-star nobody Sin City son And this is only track one
