| [00:28.18] |
Won't you look up at the skyline at the mortar, block, and glass |
| [00:33.49] |
And check out the reflections in my eyes |
| [00:39.25] |
See they always used to be there |
| [00:42.02] |
Even when this all was grass |
| [00:44.71] |
And I sang and danced about a high-rise |
| [00:49.75] |
And you were laughing at my helmet hat |
| [00:55.44] |
Laughing at my torch |
| [01:02.94] |
Go ahead you can laugh all you want |
| [01:07.05] |
I got my philosophy |
| [01:10.86] |
(Keeps my feet on the ground) |
| [01:12.15] |
And I trust it like the ground |
| [01:17.27] |
That's why my philosophy |
| [01:20.53] |
Keeps me walking when I'm falling down |
| [01:26.85] |
I see that there is evil |
| [01:28.82] |
And I know that there is good |
| [01:31.41] |
And the in-betweens I never understood |
| [01:36.31] |
Won't you look at me I'm crazy |
| [01:38.78] |
But I get the job done |
| [01:41.26] |
I'm crazy but I get the job done |
| [01:45.54] |
I say go ahead and laugh all you want |
| [01:50.28] |
But I got my philosophy |
| [01:54.09] |
(Keeps my feet on the ground) |
| [01:55.67] |
And I trust it like the ground |
| [02:00.10] |
That's why my philosophy |
| [02:03.93] |
Keeps me walking when I'm falling down |
| [02:10.20] |
I pushed you cause I loved you guys |
| [02:12.61] |
I didn't realize you weren't having fun |
| [02:19.63] |
And I dragged you up the stairs |
| [02:21.02] |
And I told you to fly |
| [02:22.20] |
You were flapping your arms |
| [02:23.50] |
Then you started to cry, you were too high |
| [02:27.28] |
Too high.... |
| [02:39.60] |
Now you take this all for granted |
| [02:41.84] |
You take the mortar, block, and glass |
| [02:44.11] |
And you forget the speech that moved the stone |
| [02:48.99] |
But it's really not that you can't see the forest from the trees |
| [02:53.85] |
You've never been out in the woods alone |
| [02:58.84] |
So you can laugh all you want to |
| [03:05.82] |
I've got my philosophy |
| [03:08.79] |
(It keeps my feet on the ground) |
| [03:11.09] |
And I love you, you're my friend |
| [03:15.57] |
But you got no philosophy |
| [03:19.21] |
Now it's time for this song to end |
