They be lookin for me way across the streets can't see that I'm somethin like a speedster
I got the speed of sound, got the speed of light all I needs my sneakers and my speakers
They be lookin for my footprints tryna find my path yes I know young homie don't follow
Cause I'm no role model side I'm dead and hollow
Yes you know I'm living something like a shadow
We lookin for that guiding light to save our life yes
Yes you know we searching for divine saviors
But I can find serenity and therapy just puttin words to the paper so
Think that it's my time
To leave it all behind
I'm flying away
I'm flying away into yesterday
Nod my head in simple recognition
My time flows backwards, my minds a prison
How do you figure let me count the difference
Months filled with years filled with insignificance
Sometimes in my life I wanna fly away
Touch the sun and see brighter days
Till I burn my retinas from the inside out
Cause my body is my temple but I hate myself
Vandilism on the synagogue walls
Deeper farther deeper farther I fall
Hello Father so nice to see you call
Do you love the beautiful writing on the wall?
I am the son third rock from the sun slowly swinging cross the galaxy like a pendulum
I am the son third rock from the sun slowly swinging cross the galaxy like a pendulum
I'm gonna I'm gonna i'm gonna
I'm gonna leave it all behind in my life cause I'm
I'm flyin away
I said I'm flyin away into yesterday
