lyrics

I see - green trees
I breath - blue skies
I shine bright - under ultraviolet light
yo I heard what the crowd said - paint the town red
black holes deep within your soul - your surrounded
down to Earth - my turf - found it first
brown dirt - gold dust - champagne - fireworks
white sand - hourglass - slippin' through the cracks
time creeps past, but it never comes back

Think tank, memory bank, sound investments
(You better keep your eye on the sparrow)
Line 'em up and shoot 'em down, the proof is in the hesitation
(You better keep your eye on the sparrow)
Reach pinnacle heights, riddled with insight
(You better keep your eye on the sparrow)
Take names, play games with freight trains
(You better keep your eye on the sparrow)

There's obstacles in my opticals, gotta dodge 'em all
an option would be to hop 'em, or leave a trail atop 'em all
or I could topple the walls, watchin' 'em fall
I could tunnel beneath, or not bother at all

It's not an issue, it's just a circumstance
Figure out how to walk before you learn to dance
Burn the sage, clear the air, turn a page, truth or dare
Shine a light on the shadow just to prove it's there
and stare - green trees - blue skies - clean light
I think I could fly - why? - we're lucky to try

I see - green trees
I breath - blue skies
I shine bright - under ultraviolet light
yo I heard what the crowd said - paint the town red
black holes deep within your soul - your surrounded
down to Earth - my turf - found it first
brown dirt - gold dust - champagne - fireworks
white sand - hourglass - slippin' through the cracks
time creeps past, but it never comes back

[scratch section - analyze, bring it to your eyes]

what should we do? - we should collaborate
how does that sound to you? - man it sounds great
wait for a moment - then elaborate - about what?
keeping the edges sharp, and the lines cut
get out the lion's den - climb to a higher zen
writing with a finer pen - find me on a minor bend
I'm in your mind a bit - rewind the time again
if you run in a circle - you'll never find the end

You've got a 6 million sided die, roll 1
(You better keep your eye on the sparrow)
Poke some new holes in the sky, calling shotgun
(You better keep your eye on the sparrow)
The humdrum is the place that we come from
(You better keep your eye on the sparrow)
Burn off the haze, and step into the sun
(You better keep your eye on the sparrow)

[scratch section - feel the gentleness of the breeze]

I see - green trees
I breath - blue skies
I shine bright - under ultraviolet light
yo I heard what the crowd said - paint the town red
black holes deep within your soul - your surrounded
