I race through the meadow
Chasing UFO's
Craving to get home
The rain and pebbles
Sprayed and speckled
My face and freckles
Embracing the tempo
The bass in my headphones
Shaking my neck bone
The way it crescendoed
Made me just let go
It's crazy I guess so
I think it's funny that
We live our last 30 years
Tryna get the first 20 back
I just want them to love me but
All they want from me
Is to tell em where the money at
I'm out of place
No more pouty face
I can't stay here
I'll take my chance in outer space
What I need is simply
Something the world can't give me
Up up away I go
Up up, up up away
What I need is simply
Something the world can't give me
Up up away I go
Up up, up up away
Shootin' for the Moon
Even if it makes me
Loony as a tune
I gave in once
And it threw me in the gloom
Wanna fly away
So I blew me a balloon
Wanna shoot it down?
I don't care you can try
Spend all day swatting
Arrows out the sky
Wiggle one finger
And I stare em in the eyes
Crazy is a diss
But I'm wearing it with pride
Gotta be me can't bury it inside
If it means beef then I'm pairing it with fries
You can hide your soul
In a pyramid of lies
But you can't repair it
When it dies
If that sounds arrogant then fine
Better than a life of paranoia
Cause I'm scared of what's behind
Stuck doing math
Always carrying the nine
Because I know what's coming
How American am I?
What I need is simply
Something the world can't give me
Up up away I go
Up up, up up away
What I need is simply
Something the world can't give me
Up up away I go
Up up, up up away
Up up away I go
Up up, up up away
