Aim 4 The Top
by Karl Olson

v1.
Playing Mortal Kombat on the Sega Genesis
Before falling for each other and you give the first kiss
Wait that's amiss, yeah can't that be correct
I mean you highly doubt / that she had that effect
Yeah you just mixed your vox / over the same deck
Kicked it so fresh n' live, and rocked a tight mic check
But yeah, you might have felt / some apprehension
Because the condescension's, actually romantic tension

But you play it off, and front like you hate her
When the fact is you actually want to date her
And be there for her, yeah to help satiate her
Thinking to yourself, did someone just create her
Just for you, like some Chobits existentialist
You think the day's special, so you sit and pencil this
Date into your journal - live or traditional
You realize everything will change - it's transitional

ch.
Keep your held high
As you Top O Narae
Keep your held high
As the two wings fly
(x2)

v2.
But it's okay cause you know / that's nice to have friends
Didn't used to be like that / so it just doesn't rend
It doesn't tear at you / cause you're just exstatic
That there's person / who gets your jokes automatic
And you never make the first move / you lack that spine
More than willing just to pine / over something divine
Rather than realign / towards that goal and that sign
Won't risk it like Sparta / hell is not where you dine

But it's not heaven either/ it's like purgatory
You're O.K. with an / unfinished story
Besides you're afraid of / The Deathly Hallows
And that thought runs deep / certainly not shallow
Don't want risk it all / lest you're led to gallows
But you're just overthinking / because you're so callow
So you keep it bottled up / you keep it on the down low
Rather than aiming to / sieze upon the crown, yo.

(ch.)(x2)
