Archive - Skyscraper lyrics

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
