Intro
Am E F E
 
verse 1
Am
Freeze the moments in time
Am
Travel back down the corridor of Eden
E
See the apple shine
F
It was gonna be the ladder to the skies
E
In their mind
Am
The moment now set it into motion
E
Play it back in time
F
It's a worn out tragedy
F
And though history won't repeat
E
We're still living in the rhyme
 
[Refrão] Am
Cuz we fly
Am
To the mountaintop
E
We climb
E
To the skies above
F
We sail
F
To the stars and up
E
But we can't get high
E Am
High enough
 
verse 2 Rapping
Am
Yeah I flung the Earth
Am
A trinket at my wrist
Am
I said to the dawn
Am
That I don't need none of this
E
Kept the sky above me
E
With infinite profundity
E
Believed this shoulder blades
E
Would sing as wings
F
Cold minds of mine
F
A gold mine of cold lines
F
And when it's go time
F
These cards I ain't fold mine
E
I told I was gonna shine
E
And I screamed to the ocean like
E
"All y'all mine"
Am
Little did I know my legs turned to lead
Am
And two can keep a secret
Am
But one of 'em is dead
E
And you can't be an equal
E
While bein' mislead
E
And I can see the sequel
E
Playin' in my head
F
Who hasn't imagined their arms
F
A literal wingspan
F
And ran as fast as they can in anticipation
E
For the moment the laws of aerodynamics kick in
E
Only to be reminded of the space we live in
 
[Refrão] Am
Cuz we fly
Am
To the mountaintop
E
We climb
E
To the skies above
F
We sail
F
To the stars and up
E
But we can't get high
E Am
High enough
