|
Won't you look up at the skyline, at the mortar block and glass |
|
And check out the reflections in my eyes |
|
You see they always used to be there even when this all was grass |
|
And I sang and danced about a high rise |
|
And you were laughing at my helmet hat |
|
Laughing at my torch |
|
Go ahead you can laugh all you want |
|
I got my philosophy |
|
(Keeps my feet on the ground) |
|
And I trust it like the ground |
|
And that's why my philosophy |
|
(My phil) |
|
It keeps me walking when I'm falling down |
|
(Osophy) |
|
I see that there is evil and I know that there is good |
|
And the in-betweens I never understood |
|
Won't you look at me I'm crazy but I get the job done |
|
Yeah, I'm crazy but I get the job done |
|
And I say, go ahead you can laugh all you want |
|
But I got my philosophy |
|
(Keeps my feet on the ground) |
|
And I trust it like the ground |
|
And that's why my philosophy |
|
(My phil) |
|
It keeps me walking when I'm falling down |
|
(Osophy) |
|
I pushed you 'cause I loved you guys |
|
I didn't realize you weren't having fun |
|
I dragged you up the stairs and I told you to fly |
|
You were flapping your arms, you started to cry |
|
You were too high, too high |
|
You may take this all for granted, you take the mortar block and glass |
|
And you forget the speech that moved the stone |
|
But it's really not the you can't see the forest for the trees |
|
You've never been out in the woods |
|
So you can laugh all you want |
|
But I got my philosophy |
|
(Keeps my feet on the ground) |
|
And I love you you're my friend |
|
But you got no philosophy |
|
(My phil) |
|
Now it's time for this song to end |
|
(Osophy) |
