Who You Are in the Stars
[Verse 1]
When I was down and out, just like a grounded kid
I felt like gravity was bad for me - to hell with it
I cast aside the clouds, and now my bounty is
A cosmic valley and I'm frolicking around in it
This galaxy is boundaryless
Every mountain peak, and unfound abyss
Is about to be close encountered with
But I may need a simulant to help with this
So if you want a boost, I’ll assist
Shoot for the moon, and I doubt you'll miss
I got room for loot, but not cowardice
Stick your landing gear out if you're down with this
I used to feel stranded - how is this?
Wasn’t like my ship was powerless
I did a diagnostic analysis
The option of choice caused your paralysis
I gotta be brave, with every choice I make
It's an open world, so don't be afraid
Because gravity is no matter grave
But if you have to, then you go back a save
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, I worry, what am I missin'
If I go down, a wormhole of side missions
[Chorus 1]
Where the hell am I flyin'? Without any guidance
I follow the lights in the sky
Any friction I find is so distant behind
Who you are in the stars you decide
[Verse 2]
I don't have a home, just a piece of one
I'm tryna find my Elysium
I don't talk too much, get the silent vibe
But if I gotta be social, I’ll try, alright?
I’m a science-guy-with-a-rifle type
And I'm high-tech too, no iron sight
I’ll find a flight, and then fly it right
There isn't time to idle - it's a pirate, fight!
Pick a side, who are you aligned with?
Quick, decide, hit the grav-drive and pilot
These colonies ain't quite united
Even though I lean Freestar, I’m divided
Take a step onto the final frontier
Territory lookin' unclear
Don't know anybody from here
But I'll put a flag in it 'cause I don't see one here
If you're a predator, do not come near
I'll give a warning shot from my gun, hear?
As I climb into the atmosphere
Evidently height is something I don't fear
Eyes up 'cause I'm a pioneer
The kind of guy describing light in years
Spirit in the sky, I'll wait for you
More than make it by, we're breakin' through
[Chorus 1]
Where the hell am I flyin'? Without any guidance
I follow the lights in the sky
Any friction I find is so distant behind
Who you are in the stars you decide
[Verse 3]
Once I start, it's hard to stop
Like Neil Degrasse, if he gets to talk
But I worship Tyson like a god
Is that blasphemous? It's a fact, I got
A pickaxe to grind - is that a shock?
When I'm in the mines, and I check the clock
I lost tracks of time 'cause I'm blastin' rock
I'll rattle the cosmos like a NASA punk
Inventory's stacked with junk
Bedtime, glad I have a bunk
But I rarely rest, where's my mind? Tomorrow
Time is relative - besides, mine is borrowed
[Bridge]
I don't know how I'd live
Now as that grounded kid
The way that I turned out
I'm proud of it
[Chorus 2]
But where the fuck am I flyin'? With nothing to guide me
But all of the lights in the sky
And I don't give a damn where I am, how this ends
Who you are in the stars you decide
[Outro]
You decide
Who you are in the stars
Who you are in the stars
Who you are in the height
