Liftoff (Rap Song)
Let's fly off in a spaceship
Let your feet lift right off of the pavement
So high up in amazement
Stop sitting sulking at the bottom of your basement
Yeah, come to us
We got the whole world watching under us
What I came to wonder was
Why we fly like bees who need another buzz
I mean there's so much out there
But most end up stuck down in their downstairs
I don't know if I like that
Can't fight back to tell them what's the right path
Cause I don't know my self
What's picture perfect think photos would help
But I posit we lost the composite of god's spit
On a lost prophet purely for profit, wait hold up a minute pause it
I think that I lost it there, that's my bad
Ten bucks to the first person here that can go find that
My life lacks the same coherency the flow of my rhymes have
Resounding sounds abound around here like a blind bat
Put on your night cap, lets take a walk in dreams
Where you don't stop to think if you can to talk to things
The world's possible and you feel so unstoppable
Don't hurdle obstacles, or worse, diverge from optimal
Lets bring it down to the baseline
We're seeing eye to eye right now like it's face time
Seems you got out of this place fine
Fate follows fortune better believe I can change mine
All these people are the strange kind
No equal in the same life when walking in a dame's mind
Floating up above the earth
Been in cheek so long that my tongue just hurts
Time to drop the cynicism
Bars split with precision like I got em in a prison
Soon to see the shackles flipped
Safely know before we touch down that you tackled it
Yet we can't find the truth
Born on the brink but we're blinded by youth
Never sighting the muse
So we leave hope here to fight the abuse
Emigrate to a new place with a new taste
Instead of getting stuck down like fingers in glue paste
While we ignore all that we do waste
Notes make love but most men listen too chaste
Kick a few tapes on repeat
Let them live under skin like days in a teepee
With all the craziness we see
I'm tired of touring this place now I'm leaving
Let your feet lift right off of the pavement
So high up in amazement
Stop sitting sulking at the bottom of your basement
Yeah, come to us
We got the whole world watching under us
What I came to wonder was
Why we fly like bees who need another buzz
I mean there's so much out there
But most end up stuck down in their downstairs
I don't know if I like that
Can't fight back to tell them what's the right path
Cause I don't know my self
