Skyscrapers (feat. Bono)

Rrr, rrr (Right)

Time for us to reach for the skies

Talk to 'em

I've seen coal turn to diamonds

And blind man's visions become skyscrapers

What begun as a scene is no longer a dream

Let's become skyscrapers, skyscrapers

Whenever I went through something,

It brought me closer to God (Come on)

And I stayed in somethin', so now I'm closer to God (Come on)

But closer to his heart, the attacks get stronger (Uh-huh)

Become much harder to fight, and they last longer (Yeah)

That's what it's always been, joy with the pain (Rrr)

Dark with the light (Rrr), sun with the rain (What?)

But, with the right perspective there's somethin' to gain

Look for the good and the bad, like the sun when it rains

I've seen coal turn to diamonds

And blind man's visions become skyscrapers

What begun as a scene is no longer a dream

Let's become skyscrapers, skyscrapers

I don't like better, better get you comfortable

Comfort put you to sleep, even though it's up with you (What?)

Hatin' our relationship, but what I love

Hate it because it kills me, love it for what it does

Every day I live, every day I die

Don't always laugh but every day I cry

Used to wonder why, now I enjoy the rain

Be stronger with the struggle, can't live without the pain

I just wanna be heard, fuck the fame

My words will live forever, fuck my name

Father God, please give me the strength I need

I was born in the dirt, just like you planted the seed

Let me grow

I've seen coal turn to diamonds

And blind man's visions become skyscrapers

What begun as a scene is no longer a dream

Let's become skyscrapers

Put your hands high and touch the sky

Put your hands high and touch the skyscrapers

Put your hands high and touch the sky

Put your hands high and touch the skyscrapers

Breezes in the summer comin' sky

In jungles through the life of flashin' lights

Feel for the, feel for far away

Reach for the sky

Reach for the sky

Reach for the sky

Reach for the sky

The sky is not in control of you
