Tower of Hollywood |
A proud attempt to take his destiny |
The hands of men, trying to seize the reigns of history |
By making plans to reach, the sun |
And so by orders of the nations king, they began |
Soon they towered over everything, from the ground it seemed |
That it could be done |
And they said rock by rock, we built a tower that will have no top |
We’ll get it right beneath the sun, and then keep going just for fun |
And they said block by block, straight up to heaven and we can’t be stopped |
The sun has never felt this good, I’d even kiss it if I could |
From the tower of Hollywood |
Look |
Music, we used to listen to it, now we lookin' at it |
Liposuctionin' it, second guessing, questionin' it |
Faceliftin' suplementin' strechin' bendin' it till its broken |
Takes the wrinkles from the soul, botoxing loose the tone, now it’s flat |
The gifted was once giving to his children, now it’s crap |
They have no way to navigate the system, so they crash |
They can form, then get torn, by the storm |
By the lies of the leprechauns, for the gold you will get stepped on |
And they close they eyes in their minds they thinking maybe, just maybe |
I can be that one at the top, but why is he one at the top? |
And why is the man that ain’t never wrote a lyric in his life telling me how to |
rap |
And why is the man that ain’t never sing a note in his life telling him how to |
back his tracks |
Hackeysack, kicked around, dribbeling ya drop down on the ground |
Meanwhile everyone thinks it’s all gravy, praying daily, they get trade met: |
Red carpet, blue carpet, old carpet, new carpet |
New carpet, album drop, didn’t sale, used carpet |
Don’t take off your shoes carpet, she’s stained and abused carpet |
Everybody rolled up, career fold up, you old news carpet |
That’s entertainment, live and die inside the public eye |
It always was and will forever be a pretty lie |
So (long) we all (long) catch on fire (long) |
So (long) we all (long) catch on fire (long) |
From the Tower of Hollywood |
If you want it I’ll built it up and just let it go |
Blood, sweat, tears, love and rock and roll |
Mix it all together, light it up and watch it blow |
Blood, sweat, tears, love and rock and roll |
If you want it I’ll built it up and just let it go |
Blood, sweat, tears, love and rock and roll |
Mix it all together, light it up and watch it blow |
Watch it burn, yeah, watch it burn |
So (long) we all (long) catch on fire (long) |
So (long) we all (long) catch on fire (long) |
And they close (they) eyes in their minds they thinking maybe, just maybe |
I can be that one at the top, but why is he one at the top? |
And why is the man that ain’t never wrote a lyric in his life telling me how to |
rap |
And why is the man that ain’t never sing a note in his life telling him how to |
back his tracks? |
So (long) we all (long) catch on fire (long) |
So (long) we all (long) catch on fire (long) |
From the tower of Hollywood |
So (long) we all (long) catch on fire (long) |
So (long) we all (long) catch on fire (long) |
From the tower of Hollywood |
