Won't you look up at the skyline
  At the mortar, block, and glass
  And check out the reflections in my eyes
  See they always used to be there
  Even when this was 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 and laugh all you want
  I got my philosophy
  And I trust it like the ground
  That's why my philosophy
  Keeps me walking when I'm falling down
    I see that there is evil
  And I know that there is good
  And the in-betweens I never understood
  Would you look at me I'm crazy
  But I get the job done
  I'm crazy but I get the job done
    So go ahead and laugh all you want
  I got my philosophy
  And I trust it like the ground
  That's why my philosophy
  Keeps me walking when I'm falling down
    I pushed you cause I loved you guys
  I didn't realize
  That you weren't having fun
  And I dragged you up the stairs
  And I told you to fly
  You were flapping your arms
  Then you started to cry, you were too high
    Now you take this all for granted
  You take the mortar, block, and glass
  And you forget the speech that moved the stone
  And it's really not that you can't see
  The forest from the trees
  You just never been out in the woods alone
    So you can laugh all you want to
  But I've got my philosophy
  And I love you you're my friend
  But you got no philosophy
  Now it's time for this song to end
