Verse 1 – 80 Johnsons I hit the fade like a ghost in the night, Left ‘em wonderin’ where I went, searchin’ left and right. 80 Johnsons in the flesh, yeah I slipped through the cracks, Played the long game quiet just to plan my comeback. Saw the headlines drop—“He’s gone!”—nah, they were wrong, I was posted in the shadows writin’ verse after song. Now I’m standin’ with my brother, both alive, both strong, Two legends off the grid but we ain’t been gone long. Hook – Michael & 80 (together) We faked out the world, now we back in the booth, Disappeared for a minute but we walkin’ in truth. From the silence we rose, now we ringin’ the bells— Two brothers resurrected with some stories to tell. Verse 2 – Michael Johnson When I dipped, they were shocked, thought the saga was done, But I was cookin’ every lyric, every line, every run. I saw 80 do the same, play that quiet retreat, We went ghost on the world just to sharpen the heat. Now we stand reunited, two survivors of stealth, We didn’t vanish from the world, we were rebuildin’ our wealth. Call it strategy, magic, or a trick of the eye— But we’re here, we’re alive, and we’re reachin’ the sky. Hook – Michael & 80 (together) We faked out the world, now we back in the booth, Disappeared for a minute but we walkin’ in truth. From the silence we rose, now we ringin’ the bells— Two brothers resurrected with some stories to tell. Verse 3 – 80 Johnsons Man, they wrote our obituaries, framed our old pics, Did the documentaries, theories, all the usual tricks. But we were laughin’ behind curtains, plottin’ moves, stayin’ calm, Craftin’ comebacks so hard they’d hit like a bomb. We ain’t ghosts—we the architects of myth and return, Let the candles burn out while we watched the world turn. Now the brothers in the spotlight, together we shine, Disappear, reappear—that’s the Johnson bloodline. Outro – Michael So here’s the truth: We didn’t die… We just hit pause. Now the play button’s glowing— Time to finish the story.
