But this is it, this is the place Don't let that high go to waste I can't pull me down (Down, down, down) I don't care what grass, what shade I'm a turbine, spinning blade I'm an ___ driven when it runs me dry Sometimes I Stare at your picture Wondering, "How did I get here?" And compare your time to mine (Mine, mine) But that hit me nowhere probably I can blame it on the human body Evolution to the movement, sloppy Breaker, breaker, does someone copy?
