Artist: Buddy f/ Kendrick Lamar Album: Idle Time Song: Staircases Typed by: newos_crib_is@hotmail.com [Chorus 2X: Buddy] Staircases take me high Escalators take me high Ladders take me high Elevators take me high [Buddy] Uh, yeah, yo, started at the surface and my goal is up cause once you stay down, then you gon' get stuck And I'm just tryna climb and grind at the same time Dangling off rooftops is what I call hang time Walking through the hall, counting my flaws My ego got caught in an elevator wall Got it out, raised it to the rooftop, damn Got to take the ladder cause the escalator jammed Made it to the top, but I ain't even stopping I said a prayer and a wish, and turned my skateboard to a rocket I'm gone to the skies, I'm nothing more than another rebel But I'm still tryna take it to another level Get up out the ghetto, maybe hop up on a shuttle Eating jello with a piece of metal, my foot on the pedal If people say the world could fit into a little pebble Then give me one good reason why you think we should settle Let's get it off [Chorus 2X] [Kendrick Lamar] Look inside my eyes, you can see the universe fly Deep inside my pupils, the alien's camouflaged Another way to shoot you, my mind is of mass destruction I drop a gallon of Henny in the Big Dipper, then dive Bitches skinny dipping in my orbit Ever seen a Martian gorgeous, or some UFO Porsches? I live inside the air, plus I wear Air Jordans So the mic/Mike is always near me whether swagging or recording Journey on my voyage, you know that sky is the limit But it's ironic, that method never applied to Kendrick I catapult over your telescope, and when I'm finished I grab the fire that's burning from Mars to light an incense This rapping's just a metaphor, and I deserve a medal for writing another metaphor, about ambition I envision me taking off, astronauting myself Fuck the world, I'll beat that bitch with the Orion's belt That's high [Chorus 2X] [Buddy] As I'm floating all alone, I look up and I start thinking In a moment I'll be gone, getting high so I'm not sinking As I'm floating all alone, I look up and I start thinking In a moment I'll be gone, getting high so I'm not sinking Yeah, yeah,yeah Getting high so I'm not sinking, yeah [Chorus 2X]
