Lyrics
We built this up together on a shaky ground
We collectively built something on an unstable foundation.
Before too long it started crumbling down
Over time, it began to fall apart.
So I got out before the whole thing hit the floor
Instead of witnessing the complete collapse, I left beforehand.
But you knew better I'd be back for more
You anticipated my return despite the risks.
And when I finally did it was strange to see
Upon returning, I observed you reconstructing it without my assistance.
That you rebuilt it with no help from me
Though the foundation remained, the structure was now different, and you managed it alone.
The same foundation but the rest is new
The core remains the same, but everything else is new, and you take ownership.
You made this it belongs to you
You are the creator; it is now yours.
It all went by too fast
Events unfolded rapidly, leaving no time for response.
No time to react
Actions were taken without a chance to react.
Once you fire the shots
Once certain actions are initiated, they cannot be undone.
They can't be taken back
Consequences are irreversible.
You spread your roots and make your things for all of me
You establish your roots, but the environment is constricting.
The ground is soft but there's no room to breathe
The foundation is soft, but there's little space to thrive.
You had to push and force into abnormal growth
Forced growth leads to abnormal development.
We could have dreamed it if we took it slow
If we had taken it slow, we could have dreamt of a different outcome.
But from the highest branches there's much thinner air
At greater heights, the air is thinner, and challenges intensify.
And things are different when you're way up there
Things change when elevated.
Now all I want is you to come back down
I desire you to return to a more grounded state.
And start again on level ground
Restart and build anew on stable ground.
It all went by too fast
Events transpired swiftly, leaving no room for reaction.
No time to react
There was no time to respond.
Once you fire the shots
Once a certain action is taken, it cannot be reversed.
They can't be taken back
The consequences are final.
I went and left you for dead
I abandoned you, but you rose again.
But you just got up again
Your resilience strengthens with each challenge.
And every fight just seems to make you stronger
Every conflict contributes to your resilience.
I tried to tear this apart
I attempted to destroy this, but it was doomed from the beginning.
But it was blown from the start
Efforts to dismantle it were futile.
'cause you just had to grab them all and run
You seized every opportunity and persevered.
from the highest branches there's much thinner air
At greater heights, challenges intensify.
And things are different when you're way up there
Changes occur when elevated.
Now all I want is you to come back down
I long for your return to a grounded state.
And start again on level ground
Commence anew on stable ground.
It all went by too fast
Events unfolded swiftly, leaving no time for response.
No time to react
No opportunity to react was provided.
Once you fire the shots
Once certain actions are initiated, they cannot be undone.
They can't be taken back
The consequences are irreversible.
It all went by too fast
Events unfolded rapidly, and reactions were impossible.
Never could react
There was no chance to react.
Once you fire the shots
Once certain actions are initiated, they cannot be undone.
They can't be taken back
The consequences are final.
