Tower of Hollywood

A proud attempt to take his destiny

The hands of men, trying to seize the reigns of history

By making plans to reach, the sun

And so by orders of the nations king, they began

Soon they towered over everything, from the ground it seemed

That it could be done

And they said rock by rock, we built a tower that will have no top

We'll get it right beneath the sun, and then keep going just for fun

And they said block by block, straight up to heaven and we can't be stopped

The sun has never felt this good, I'd even kiss it if I could

From the tower of Hollywood

Look

Music, we used to listen to it, now we lookin' at it

Liposuctionin' it, second guessing, questionin' it

Faceliftin' suplementin' strechin' bendin' it till its broken

Takes the wrinkles from the soul, botoxing loose the tone, now it's flat

The gifted was once giving to his children, now it's crap

They have no way to navigate the system, so they crash

They can form, then get torn, by the storm

By the lies of the leprechauns, for the gold you will get stepped on

And they close they eyes in their minds they thinking maybe, just maybe

I can be that one at the top, but why is he one at the top?

And why is the man that ain't never wrote a lyric in his life telling me how to rap

And why is the man that ain't never sing a note in his life telling him how to back his tracks

Hackeysack, kicked around, dribbeling ya drop down on the ground

Meanwhile everyone thinks it's all gravy, praying daily, they get trade met:

Red carpet, blue carpet, old carpet, new carpet

New carpet, album drop, didn't sale, used carpet

Don't take off your shoes carpet, she's stained and abused carpet

Everybody rolled up, career fold up, you old news carpet

That's entertainment, live and die inside the public eye

It always was and will forever be a pretty lie

So (long) we all (long) catch on fire (long)

So (long) we all (long) catch on fire (long)

From the Tower of Hollywood

If you want it I'll built it up and just let it go

Blood, sweat, tears, love and rock and roll

Mix it all together, light it up and watch it blow

Blood, sweat, tears, love and rock and roll

If you want it I'll built it up and just let it go

Blood, sweat, tears, love and rock and roll

Mix it all together, light it up and watch it blow

Watch it burn, yeah, watch it burn

So (long) we all (long) catch on fire (long)

So (long) we all (long) catch on fire (long)

And they close (they) eyes in their minds they thinking maybe, just maybe

I can be that one at the top, but why is he one at the top?

And why is the man that ain't never wrote a lyric in his life telling me how to rap

And why is the man that ain't never sing a note in his life telling him how to back his tracks?

So (long) we all (long) catch on fire (long)

So (long) we all (long) catch on fire (long)

From the tower of Hollywood

So (long) we all (long) catch on fire (long)

So (long) we all (long) catch on fire (long)
