{Verse 1}
I've been told to keep my feet off the ground, but
That's just something that my mind won't allow, 'cause
I can't seem to take my mind of the clouds, what's
The point of giving in to all of their doubts? Nah
I choose to leap and I might fall like autumn leaves
But all I need's a lotta speed and I don't care what the odds would be
I know I'm an anomaly, it's something that I gotta do
Like the floor is made of lava, I move to the sky
Get my Icarus on
The sun might be the death of me, but I'm not fearing the dawn
Never following the mob, I'm not here to belong
And I'm taking every risk like I'll know I'll respawn
'Cause I'll know I'll respond
Usеd to aim low, but I know I was wrong
The fear is gone
Thеse days, I'm climbing like Kong
When the choice is fly or die, gravity isn't strong
{Chorus}
I had to move
I'll never be cool with my altitude
'Till I'm
Looking down on the clouds, 'till I'm
Looking down, looking down now
And I got something to prove
So I'm spending every second just paying my dues
'Till I'm
Looking down on the clouds, 'till I'm
Looking down, looking down now
{Verse 2}
I've seen amazing minds living as minions
Settle for a couple coins when they're really worth millions
It's silly when they're so sure they were never really meant to be great
Or if they were, it's too late
But it's not 'till your clock stops ticking
Confidence stuck in an ice world
Always slipping, Fire Flower's what they're missing
And to fly is the mission, never dipping
Never coming down, P-Wing
Advancing through levels like I'm breathing
Into Warp Whistles, is that cheating?
Well, I'm late for a meeting, can't keep the stars waiting
Constellations aren't patient
We don't have to wait when we control fate and
Feel bulletrproof when we take them
And put 'em in the perfect placement
Been adverse to pavement
On my last life, and I'm not about to waste it
{Chorus}
I had to move
I'll never be cool with my altitude
'Till I'm
Looking down on the clouds, 'till I'm
Looking down, looking down now
And I got something to prove
So I'm spending every second just paying my dues
'Till I'm
Looking down on the clouds, 'till I'm
Looking down, looking down now
