Philosophy

Won't you look up at the skyline

At the mortar, block, and glass

And check out the reflections in my eyes

You see, they always used to be there

Even when this all was crass

And I sang and danced about a high-rise

And you were laughin' at my helmet hat

Laughin' at my torch

Go ahead, you can laugh all you want

I got my philosophy (Keeps my feet on the ground)

And I trust it like the ground

That's why my philosophy (My phil)

It keeps me walkin' when I'm fallin' down (Losophy)

I see that there is evil and I know that there is good

Then the in-betweens, I never understood

Won't you look at me? I'm crazy

But I get the job done

Yeah, I'm crazy, but I get the job done

I say, go ahead, you can laugh all you want

But I got my philosophy (Keeps my feet on the ground)

And I trust it like the ground

That's why my philosophy (My phil)

It keeps me walkin' when I'm fallin' down (Losophy)

I pushed you 'cause I loved you guys

I didn't realize you weren't havin' fun

And I dragged you up the stairs and I told you to fly

You were flappin' your arms, you started to cry

You were too high, no, 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

But it's really not that you can't see the forest for the trees

You've never been out in the woods alone

So you can laugh all you want to

But I got my philosophy (Keeps my feet on the ground)

And I love you, you're my friend

But you got no philosophy (My phil)

Now it's time for this song to end (Losophy)
