להתחיל מבראשית (הרלוד גרין)

I come from a city of sky-scrapers

Buildings so elevated, they seem to graze the clouds

And ironically, block out the sun on some days

And sometimes, driving around that bend on Lake Shore

Feel like a architectural metaphor

We busy ourselves, building all these beautiful infrastructures

Just to wake up one day and realize that these walls we built

To protect us and amaze outsiders

Can make us far-sighted

Now we’re playing a game of Metropolis Tetras

Living in Lego-land

Yo Lego-Man, singing, “Everything is awesome”

Not realizing you dealing with some lawsuits

Heavier than the boxes you packed them in

And one day, they all fall on you

Like anvils

And there’s no Advil

To cure a ton of bricks

They teach you to have thick skin and tight lips

But there some problems

that even master builders can’t fix

It don’t make you less of a man to admit

That you can’t handle it all

Sometimes we build those walls too tall

And when we’ve tried it all

And nothing seems to be working

There’s nothing wrong with calling the demolition team

And startin’

All

Over.
