It’s a good morning when Icon For Hire uploads a new song.

[Dragnvil]

According to AZ lyrics:
I've been underestimated my whole life
Can play it on the quiet side but I'm not shy
Maybe I'm the flower painted on the wall
Maybe I'm the number that you never call

I've been waiting in the shadows way too long
Saving up my punches while I bite my tongue
I'm about to strike, gonna leave a mark
Take a seat, the show's about to start

You won't see me coming
But you're gonna know
When I show up, show up
Gonna make your head spin, make you listen
Yeah you will know my name
From the shadow, to the spotlight
From the background, to the front lines
I'm a fire about to ignite, out of nowhere
Gonna hit you, gonna hit you in your blindside
Gonna hit you, gonna hit you in your blindside
Gonna hit you, gonna hit you

Feeling like a viper, finally shed my skin
Bet you didn't know I had it from the outside in
Counting down the hours, careful where you are
Watch your back, the show's about to start

You won't see me coming
But you're gonna know
When I show up, show up
Gonna make your head spin, make you listen
Yeah you will know my name
From the shadow, to the spotlight
From the background, to the front lines
I'm a fire about to ignite, out of nowhere
Gonna hit you, gonna hit you in your blindside
Gonna hit you, gonna hit you in your blindside
Gonna hit you, gonna hit you

Blindside, in your blindside
You'll never know it's coming til it hits you
In your blindside, in your blindside
You'll never know it's coming til it hits you
In your blindside, in your blindside
You'll never know it's coming til it hits you
In your blindside, in your blindside
You'll never know, never know, never know

You won't see me coming
But you're gonna know
When I show up, show up
Gonna make your head spin, make you listen
Yeah you will know my name
From the shadow, to the spotlight
From the background, to the front lines
I'm a fire about to ignite, out of nowhere
Gonna hit you, gonna hit you in your blindside
Gonna hit you in your blindside
In your blindside

14 year old me is QUAKING, even 5 years later I still think y'all slap

[taylorjaress]

As someone who listen to them alot when i was younger, coming back and listening to their older and newer songs have made me realize how far I've gotten better with my anxiety and insecurities. Tbh i really believe Rel and Shawn helped me and for that I thank you! Keep doing great work!!

[etplaysgames]

I got this just before school and im so happy

[infiniteaj]

Is it even possible for Icon for Hire to make a bad song? Seriously, I haven't found one yet and it's scary. So many different styles and they nail it every single time. Damn, I love this band.

[ashleighlivingston]

I just got hit in my blindside by this song and I love it 😍😍 I'd out money on my listening to this on repeat and then having it stuck in my head all night while I'm at work lol

[ftes]

I know what it feels to when you see the notification of the new song of a group you love and you can't open it because you're in class...


Now, this... This little piece of my life is called happiness.

[Able]

I love icon for hire so much they haven’t made a single song that I haven’t fell in love with immediately but seriously stop teasing me icon just drop a new album it’s all I want for Christmas this year

The opening before the lyrics has has such a Mario Galaxy feel to it. I love it.

[davidogundipe]

Icon for Hire keeps on producing on point jams.

[booklover]

Love this song! Dropped just when I needed it. Can’t sleep tonight and this song is starting to help me feel more understood and comfortable. Great music as usual, Icon For Hire! Can’t wait to see which album this song will be on. ❤️

[nemelysia]

Wake up to hear someone i thought was a friend was trash talking me, and then the notification for this new song pops up, and you know what? I don't even care someone decided to do that, this makes literally everything okay 👌🏻 Much love to you guys, keep rockin and making that good good music! 💜

[Verse 1]
I've been underestimated my whole life
Can play it on the quiet side, but I’m not shy
Maybe I’m the flower painted on the wall
Maybe I’m the number that you never call

[Verse 2]
I’ve been waiting in the shadows way too long
Saving up my punches while I bite my tongue
I’m about to strike, gonna leave a mark
Take a seat, the show’s about to start

[Chorus]
You won’t see me coming, but you’re gonna know
When I show up, show up
Gonna make your head spin, make you listen
Yeah, you will know my name

From the shadow to the spotlight
From the background to the frontlines
I’m a fire ‘bout to ignite, out of nowhere
Gonna hit you, gonna hit you in your blindside
Gonna hit you, gonna hit you in your blindside
Gonna hit you, gonna hit you

[Verse 3]
Feeling like a viper, finally shed my skin
Bet you didn’t know I had it from the outside in
Counting down the hours, careful where you are
Watch your back, the show’s about to start


[Chorus]
You won’t see me coming, but you’re gonna know
When I show up, show up
Gonna make your head spin, make you listen
Yeah, you will know my name

From the shadow to the spotlight
From the background to the frontlines
I’m a fire ‘bout to ignite, out of nowhere
Gonna hit you, gonna hit you in your blindside
Gonna hit you, gonna hit you in your blindside
Gonna hit you, gonna hit you

[Bridge]
Blindside, in your blindside
You’ll never know what’s coming ‘til it hits you
In your blindside, in your blindside
You’ll never know what’s coming ‘til it hits you

In your blindside, in your blindside
You’ll never know what’s coming ‘til it hits you
In your blindside, in your blindside
You’ll never know, you’ll never know, never know

[Chorus]
You won’t see me coming, but you’re gonna know
When I show up, show up
Gonna make your head spin, make you listen
Yeah, you will know my name


From the shadow to the spotlight
From the background to the frontlines
I’m a fire ‘bout to ignite, out of nowhere
Gonna hit you, gonna hit you in your blindside
(Gonna hit you, gonna hit you)
Gonna hit you in your blindside
(Gonna hit you, gonna hit you)
In your blindside
