[Verse 1: Mike Posner]
I cleaned out your dresser, found some joints
My sister smoked 'em, I didn’t see the point
And everyone keeps sayin' that I look just like you
Life don't seem so long anymore

[Chorus: Mike Posner]
The day my daddy died, I damn near quit the band
The day my daddy died, I held my mama’s hand
I cried my tears, then dried 'em up
Put my face inside my hands
The day my daddy died, I became a man

[Verse 2: Mike Posner]
The cops came, they did not take off their shoes
People hug me, I smell like 10,000 perfumes
Gave away the wheelchair, you're gone, but I'm still here
January in Detroit is cold as fuck

[Chorus: Mike Posner]
The day my daddy died, I damn near quit the band
The day my daddy died, I held my mama's hand
I cried my tears, then dried 'em up
Put my face inside my hands
The day my daddy died, I became a man
The day my daddy died, I became a man

[Outro: Mike Posner & Jon Posner]
I love you a lot
I love you, too
Remind me to let you run away if you need to run places, like the basement. I mean, that's what it's a part of, isn’t it? Being an individual
Yeah, letting people go
Yeah
Remind me to let you go, too, if you need to
Absolutely
I love you
I love you so much. You’re gonna put that into a song?

Mike Posner

Born in Detroit, Michigan, Posner has never shied away from telling folks where he’s from. Growing up with childhood friend Big Sean, music quickly grabbed his attention. Garnering fame in August of 2010 with 31 Minutes to Take Off, he has quickly established himself as not only a singer of pop music but also a songwriter to big names.

He first gained attention in the music world after his dorm room written track that he wrote while attending Duke hit airways via YouTube. He quickly began releasing new material and his mixtapes held top spots on iTunes U charts for several weeks.

He has worked on two sophomore albums in Skyhigh and Pages that ended up being shelved, but he has in the meantime written for stars such as Labrinth, Justin Bieber, as well as Maroon 5, and Nick Jonas.
