Skyscraper |
One man climbs higher then one bites dust |
Thru the dark hours in dark towers we trust |
Forever the rays of light will energise my |
Born ability mind stability much creativity |
39 steps 22 catch boxed in |
Tales of the city we are lost in |
Living in a haze I’m amazed by the ways in the days |
Of forever go non stop pressure |
The risking obelisks stands stable in the skyline |
You will find icon is symbol and symbol is sign |
Higher aspect looking down over the horizon |
The cloud nine zero back down to the ground |
Skyscraper you will never feel |
What it’s like to be, or how it seems to me |
It’s all man-made material |
Scribbled down by the architect |
Just parallel lines on the paper |
Surrounded by walls that vary in size |
Still they cast an intimidating image in my eyes |
But ya concrete block will never rock my stone |
Inya zone I’m unbreakable able to resist |
Overthe stage in timea newer age |
And still I’m in a rage of dilemma |
Minds eye spray gamma hammer nail |
Again it presents itself |
What’s life like upon the top shelf? |
It really doesn’t matter if I’m any |
Lesser than your higher status |
See the press haven’t you heard the latest |
The greatest thing about being 'I' is me |
And what I really can be I never |
Run you never ran me |
I stand my ground found solid stance |
Never take a step back move forward |
Remember this skyscraper ya building blocks |
Will trickle down like sands of time |
So roll the dice then pay the price |
