INTRO: Oh, what a crazy feeling You got my heart reeling Oh, what a crazy feeling You got my heart reeling VERSE 1: There was a light in the attic where the sidewalk ends And the giving trees bark protected it from the cold And I could see your brown bear where the wild things are Asleep under the twinkle of a little star Wishing I was a prince on an island of treasure Forever young, living in a land of never Where grim fairy tales always have happy endings And those without a voice have a Lorax defending Children pretending, playing and laughing Imagination, innocence, the youths compa**ion Action and adventure and amazing fantasies On a watership down, surrounded by enemies A teen titan fighting secret wars Where god loves, a man k**s, and life endures The last hunt of a phoenix saga The return of a dark knight in positive armor, I CHORUS: I love the words, the pictures The voice that speaks to me I love to live lifes treasure The music sets me free Take me away, lets roam now Off to the new adventure Another chapters written They say well live forever VERSE 2: Im just a catcher in the rye picking flowers for Algernon A mad hatter on the fly fighting Babylon Writing sad songs, watching the world spin Like Huck Finn rapping with the trees blowing in the wind Never giving in, and never giving up Fact, told em never fitting in I never give a what And I dont care why, cause I dont know who And when it happens Ill be where I gotta be and do What I can, with my own two hands, Until the d**h of a salesman protecting my fam I love to rap, so I rap for love I live for my wifes smile and hugs And I struggle with pain, and fight to stay positive And remain sane in the light of all lifes got to give Through the grapes of wrath and the apocalypse Like the great Gatsby, there aint no stopping this [CHORUS] VERSE 3: I knew a king who knew the measure of a man With strength to love like grandmas hands In a land where the sun also rises He gave a farewell to arms and a dream that was priceless The generation of swine on animal farms Obsessed with fear and loathing, in love with bombs Rather learn the art of war than peace A revolutionary life to fight the beast He kept motorcycle diaries, writing on the road And we laughed denial that wed ever get old I grew up, and never let the dream die Like an invisible man in a time machines lie It was 1984 when s**a MCs dropped And ever since then I knew I wanted to rock And I do it for the love and you know thats true Even though I hate the game, its a catch-22, cause I [CHORUS] BRIDGE: (Can you feel it) Its just something I feel (Can you feel it) Its just something I need (Can you feel it) Its something that I believe (Can you feel it) Its just something I breathe ENDING: Oh, what a crazy feeling You got my heart reeling Oh, what a crazy feeling You got my heart reeling Oh, what a crazy feeling You got my heart reeling Oh, what a crazy feeling You got my heart reeling
