I want to explore the vistas you never imagined could exist.
I want to birth innovation past the time and the space,
You never had or gave me for creative construction.
Past where you held me down and slowed my momentum.
A single big bang in an upstairs apartment,
Blew me into the street and you out of all options.
You think every star is exactly the same.
But they all shine a different color and have their own names.
Past every planet and shooting star,
I'll search for my name and find out what I was here for.
Past every moon and meteor,
You'll be idle and wish you'd followed the leader.
The satellites will come and go,
But I'll move at my own pace
and slow down for no one.

Blew me into the street and you out of all options.
You think every star is exactly the same.
But they all shine a different color and have their own names.
Past every planet and shooting star,
I'll search for my name and find out what I was here for.
Past every moon and meteor,
You'll be idle and wish you'd followed the leader.
The satellites will come and go,
But I'll move at my own pace
and slow down for no one.
