2. MIKE is a punk rock band from Stockholm, Sweden.
MIKE started in January 2006 by Joel, Fredrik, Viktor and Jesper. The four guys from the southern part of Stockholm/Sweden had all played in different bands for years. Back in 1996 Viktor started a band called No Division with a friend. Jesper joined the band in 2000 (then called Pronoid), where they both played for five years. Joel played in the band Dechas, who released an EP on DayGlo Records in 2000 and an album on Shutdown Records in Australia in 2002. Fredrik had been playing in the band In Memory Of Me and in different bands before that. Jesper and Joel played together from time to time for a while and they both love punk rock, and when Jesper quit Pronoid they started talking about playing punk together. They talked to their old friends Viktor and Fredrik and started jamming some of Jespers songs and the result is what today is known as the band MIKE. After about a year our good friend Fredrik decided to quit the band to play with a reggae band from Uppsala. We then tried out two drummers but decided to pick one of Joel's old friends, Totte. He'd earlier been the drummer in bands like Milk bar, Devoured, Songea and Simpleton. Experience and routine was a fact. He'd actually only been in the band for about a week when he performed his first show with MIKE, and a week after that we went into the studio to record a couple of songs.

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I was stuck taking time for granted
But love it, your love shine over this planet
A nugget broke down over this cancer
We puffing, J Brown told us to stand up
For nothing, days now shook with my hands up
Assumption, I fade out
But bae got my back, I understand my budget
My face in display of it all
Your way is crazy
You made me stay home with my thoughts
Since baby, they be piling stones in my heart
You daisy
Climbing out of stones in your yard
Lazy, hopping God to go for the stars
Some guy who told me you soft
My eyes is lonely in terms of
The shit that it cost
My prize is only a bit of a wall
To sit with you and listen to Moore
I'm for my blood 'til it drip from my pores
In the slums with my vision restored
You travel doing dishes and tours
You know kids who persistent and poor
Kids who persistent and poor
While we walking on indigenous floors
Thanks to the sky for those who did it before
Might turn me back around never one to run
He hoo sharpen, you compare
You hoo hoo he hoo
Hoo hoo hoo hoo
It's the blues that made me
Blues made hues turn navy
Blame me, rather bored out the main street
Pains deep
Stench in my lungs like it rain free
Face out the mud, had to stain creeps
Caught in the whip but lately (But lately)
Took grace
But under glimmer it's different than lazy
Anyway past the neighbour
Got the face bleached
Stood briefs at straight streets
Eyes to the sun, that's the main thing
Pretty much shadow adjacent
Hearts that's simply for patience
Think it's because of my facelift

Think it's because of my facelift
I attribute my personal growth and changes to my experiences and challenges
