He grew up playing guitar and singing for anyone who would listen. His impressive skills are proof of long hours spent producing music at a bluegrass recording studio coupled with his passion for making music that make people feel like drinking whiskey around a campfire.
MyKey is underway with writing, recording, producing, mixing, and mastering his second full length album in his LA residence. Inspired by Tyler, The Creator’s honest and daring style, this album will be a mix of MyKey’s folk sound with more modern production and pop elements. In addition he’ll be debuting new stop-motion animation videos for each track.
Quitting You
Mykey Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Looks to me we've got words to share. I miss our love and it don't feel fair.
You′re in my bones and in my phone. Now and then I can feel you moan.
Steal my time and spend me broke. I′m quitting you jack hit the road.
I'm quitting you. I′m quitting you. I'm quitting you. Hit the road jack. I′m quitting you.
I'm quitting you. I′m quitting you. I'm quitting you. Hit the road jack. I'm quitting you.
Time flies when you′re not alone. Your true friends feel right at home. When you put yourself out in front of multiple crowds I feel a love holding me higher when the wind blows.
I don′t recall hotel rooms a few bathroom stalls. Baby without you I feel ten feet tall.
To say goodbye. (Baby please don′t do this)
Oh I'm in love with a woman who can′t stop won't stop killing me.
Let′s take a drive. (Just stop the car) We kiss goodbye. (see you next time)
There ain't gonna be a next time and mark my words I bet this'll be the last time you ever heard.
I′m quitting you. I′m quitting you. I'm quitting you. Hit the road jack. I′m quitting you.
I'm quitting you. I′m quitting you. I'm quitting you. Hit the road jack. I′m quitting you.
I'm quitting you. I'm quitting you. I′m quitting you. Hit the road jack. I′m quitting you.
I'm quitting you. I′m quitting you. I'm quitting you. Hit the road jack. I′m quitting you. see less
In "Quitting You" by Mykey, the artist expresses his frustration and heartbreak over a troubled relationship. The song begins with Mykey wondering what people are saying about him behind his back, as he feels disconnected from his partner. He longs to share his thoughts and feelings with her, but they've grown distant. Despite this distance, Mykey can't help but feel connected to her, as she remains a presence in his bones and phone. However, he recognizes that their relationship is draining him financially and emotionally, leading him to declare that he's quitting her and that she should "hit the road jack."
As the song progresses, Mykey reflects on his life without his partner. He notes that time seems to pass more easily when he's surrounded by good friends, but he still feels incomplete without her. Even in his newfound success as an artist, he can't help but think of the hotel rooms and bathroom stalls they once shared. He suggests going on a drive to say goodbye, but he knows deep down that this will truly be the end of their relationship.
The repeated refrain of "I'm quitting you" underscores Mykey's determination to move on and find happiness without his troubled partner. Though he acknowledges that he still loves her, he recognizes that it's time to let go and move forward.
