Never Land Lyrics

[Intro: Marz]
Looking in the distance
I'm dreaming of a world for us
When the moons align we'll map out a journey for you and I
For you and I

[Chorus: Marz]
In the night I'm alone
Without You, I'm drifting on

When You take my hand
I'm so high up I'll never land
Up, up, up, up, up
I'll never land
Up, up, up, up, up
I'll never land
Up, up, up, up, up
I'll never land
Up, up, up, up, up
And I'll never land

[Verse 1: Andy Mineo]
Everybody wanna be on top
I don't think they know what that means
Once you get there then you can't stop
Everybody gunnin' for ya' spot, aimin' at ya' team
I'm up all night, chasin' dreams
Everything change when you go from seein' it all on
Big screen to behind the scenes
Leadin' us on like this the life they lead, huh
Do you know the rich and famous kill themselves to stay rich and famous?
Very same thing that they built they name with
Be the same thing that they be enslaved with

So, I don't want rap, you can have that
I don't want the crown, yo', I'm aimin' past that
Headed for another throne can't have that
It's a Kingdom where my Dad's at
And I'm His son, I sing on, so death won't have that last laugh

(Huh) Child of a King, royalty, that's ASCAP
They want glory, money, and power before you go
I promise you it's empty, we aimin' just way too low
I know we own things we don't need to impress people we don't know
Then we go broke trying to look rich
I can't do it, I just won't

My new goal is to be close to the one that made my soul man
Them other highs gon' let you down
I'm tryna get so high I'll never land
[Chorus: Marz]
In the night I'm alone
Without You, I'm drifting on

When You take my hand
I'm so high up I'll never land
Up, up, up, up, up
I'll never land
Up, up, up, up, up
I'll never land
Up, up, up, up, up
I'll never land
Up, up, up, up, up
And I'll never land

[Verse 2: Andy Mineo]
I am Rufio with the ripped jeans (Uh)
Kool Moe with the sixteens
In a studio, Michelangelo with a microphone writin' Sistines
But these songs ain't for the chapel
Try to build with others, your own attack you
Try to be a light and they blowin' the match you lit
Can't use a shotgun to catch a fish
I'm on, usin' a different tactic

Call me a boom-baptist
Look at this rap cat with glasses, cookin' the track
And every time I look at my past
I laugh like, "Heh, you know where I should've been at?", huh
Nowadays I just wanna make a classic
Tryna to set the bar way above the average
Then smash that for the glory of God
And do rappers like Apple, leave 'em without jobs
Sittin' on the writer's block
Pennin' everything that's happening in and out
Ever since the album dropped
Things changed, get the feelin' they won't stop
I don't want to grow up, Neverland got no clocks
But, let me give 'em bars and no shots
To catch em'
I got a message about a blessin'
But it's written in cursive
You gonna face death, I know the one to reverse it, listen

[Bridge: Andy Mineo]
When I say I get so high
I ain't even talking 'bout sticky, no lie
The way up is down
Stay low to the ground and You close to the clouds
Listen, when I say I get so high
I ain't even talking 'bout sticky, no lie
The way up is down
Stay low to the ground and You close to the clouds
For real though


[Chorus: Marz & Andy Mineo]
In the night I'm alone
Without You, I'm drifting on

When You take my hand
I'm so high up I'll never land
Up, up, up, up, up
I'll never land
Up, up, up, up, up
I'll never land
Up, up, up, up, up
I'll never land
Up, up, up, up, up
And I'll never land

About

Genius Annotation

In this first song of Andy Mineo’s Never Land EP, the whole idea he’s trying to capture is wanting to “never land”, or in other words, have to come back down into the world. The title of the EP was inspired by the fictional place “Never Land”, which is featured in many J. M. Barrie works, mostly known from his most famous work Peter and Wendy.
