[Intro]
Yeah
Alright

[Verse 1]
See the sunset? I ain't gotta sleep yet
'Cause, love from these girls, I need it
Trouble all on my mind, can you read it?
Me and you, tell me, can you see it?
Tell me, could that last?
Tryna make a future off friends in the past
Tryna get big, blow up, have a blast
Sittin', love lends just to have a little chat, yeah
That's a real image, Instagram that
Lookin' for that real chick, hopin' that God did plan that
I've been scared about time
And I've been scared about money
'Cause they keep sayin' it's mine, and that shit makin' Mac funny
Half a year ago I was the one who left the class
Now I'm on a roll without a test I ever had to pass
Imagine that, paid by raps
You [ain't in gums?] about all that
While I'm get up perform and I [tweets?] get me my cash, yeah

[Pre-Chorus]
So tell me you could be my queen
As I become the king of everything I've ever dreamed
Lying if I said, "Girl, I don't want to cut tonight"
To be real with you, I'm lookin' for love tonight

[Chorus]
Hands in the air, said show me somethin' (show me)
Show me somethin' (sh-show me), show me somethin' (yeah-yeah)
Hands in the air, said show me somethin' (show me)
Show me somethin' (sh-show me), show me somethin' (yeah-yeah)
I threw my hands in the air, said show me somethin' (show me)
Show me somethin' (sh-show me), show me somethin' (yeah-yeah)
Hands in the air, said show me somethin' (show me)
Show me somethin' (sh-show me), show me somethin' (yeah-yeah)
'Round and around and around and around we go
Oh now, tell me now, tell me now, tell me now you know

[Verse 2]
I ain't tryna just get right for the night
Tryna get right for life, so don't need to think twice
Flow been cold like my hype's on ice
Hittin' on they shit, take hikes and fly kites
Live my lifes, we might some new heights
Oh, you won too, homie? Must be nice
Still not sure what the hell that's like, but my fans put my name way above those lights
What you know about gettin' big without your hometown?
What you know about nine thousand people my whole town?
Shut me out but they know now
Wouldn't buy, but they sold now
I did the work, I took all the dirt
Now I call the microphone home, wow
Damn, shoutout to the fans
Heard the truth inside the music and they gave the kid a chance
She just like the image, know she really ain't a fan
I was lookin' for that love, but you don't know who I am, damn

[Pre-Chorus]
So tell me you could be my queen
As I become the king of everything I've ever dreamed
Lying if I said, "Girl, I don't want to cut tonight"
To be real with you, I'm lookin' for love tonight

[Chorus]
Hands in the air, said show me somethin' (show me)
Show me somethin' (sh-show me), show me somethin' (yeah-yeah)
Hands in the air, said show me somethin' (show me)
Show me somethin' (sh-show me), show me somethin' (yeah-yeah)
I threw my hands in the air, said show me somethin' (show me)
Show me somethin' (sh-show me), show me somethin' (yeah-yeah)
Hands in the air, said show me somethin' (show me)
Show me somethin' (sh-show me), show me somethin' (yeah-yeah)
'Round and around and around and around we go
Oh now, tell me now, tell me now, tell me now you know

Growing up in New Jersey, Luke Terkovich, otherwise known as Abstract, was involved with music at an early age. Learning how to play piano, electric guitar, and the drums were Luke’s first involvement with music — and he did it all before 6th grade. With a move across country from New Jersey to Jackson, Wyoming, the distance between learning and playing new instruments got larger. It wasn’t until several years later that Luke began to mess around with freestyling during his high school years spent at Jackson Hole High. Evolving his newly found musical expression into Raised in Jackson, WY, Abstract is known for his immense musical versatility and affinity for providing uplifting music for a turbulent world. With a knack for storytelling, he provides introspective motivation to all who take the time to dive into his work. Notably known for his remix of Ruth Bs Lost Boy “Neverland” which has garnered hundreds of millions of plays on YouTube, his work with Drumma Battalion and Roze, and his 2016 album Something to Write Home About. He heads a collective known as “A Team Worldwide” 5 musicians from 4 different countries. Producers Drumma Battalion of Norway, Blulake of Sweden, Cryo Music of Scotland, and Abstract. Coming off his first overseas tour with YONAS, the ATWW collective is gearing up to drop Abstracts new album/experience late summer 2018.writing detailed lyrics, he began to find that he could vent the stresses of his everyday life through creating music. Slowly progressing through the years of his new town where he calls home; balancing school, life, and music developed Luke to become Abstract.

Trying to find his sound was a young teenager who just looked to get something written down and then translated into music, and eventually rap. Still in his caterpillar stage of metamorphosis was a young Abstract who released his first ever collection of songs, properly named The Dream.

In 2012, through YouTube, Abstract met Craig McAllister, a producer from Glasgow, Scotland. During that period, Abstract was in the midst of working on On My Own Time and was the first time Craig showed up with Abstract. Afterwards, the duo started to mesh extremely well and produced the five projects, Under Lights & Microscopes, A Life To Live By, Dreaming With Eyes Open, The Science Of Feeling Tall, and We Are The Artist.
