Skyscraper Lyrics - Singles - Archive

One man climbs higher then one bites dust 

Through 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
