One man climbs higher then one bites dust

Thru the dark hours in dark towers we trust forever

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 the maze I'm amazed by the ways in the days

Of forever go non stop pressure

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

In ya zone I'm unbreakable

Able to resist over the stage in time a 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

Thirty thousand feet above the earth

Thirty thousand feet above the earth
