Looking up, starlight
Take me there, yeah I wanna fly
One call, bankroll
Wanna feel the rush to the front row

Paycheck, late again
Barely hanging on to the apartment
Doing it my way
Ain't nothing free 'bout the free way

But I'm miles off the ground
I'm leaving this home and city to burn
And I'll watch it go down
Ooh 'cause that Sun gon' take me with it, hey

And I'm building a fire, fire
I'm building it higher, higher
I'm gonna run this empire, pire
And if it go down in the flames
The smoke gon' spell my name

Lipstick, red wine
Long nights, it's a lifestyle
So good to the last drop
You could see me light up from the rooftops

But I'm miles off the ground
I'm leaving this home and city to burn
And I'll watch it go down
Ooh 'cause that Sun gon' take me with it, hey

And I'm building a fire, fire
I'm building it higher, higher
I'm gonna run this empire, pire
And if it go down in the flames
The smoke gon' spell my name

And I'm building a fire, fire
I'm building it higher, higher
I'm gonna run this empire, pire
And if it go down in the flames
The smoke gon' spell my name
