last emperor - do you remember lyrics

at times, i feel old like i’m going out of style
so i turn down the music on my fm dial
i beg of you to come and listen for a while
and look at this wonderful world through the eyes of a child
this is my chance to escape today
and i don’t want to see my dreams chased away
inside the palace gates is where i stay
’cause the world is no longer a safe place to play
its like the story of the little wooden boy
who wanted to live the life that every child should enjoy
i heard it once of twice before
the world is yours for you to explore
i heard my calling as a child and i answered it
when i grow up and finally get my chance to fit
i’ll be the sort of man you can’t forget
i used to stair up at the sky on my camping trips
in this quiet night of quiet stars
of quiet chords on my guitar
kids out there, i know it might be hard
but i realize how alive you are

[chorus]
one day i’ll travel from the east to the west
and tap into the hidden strength that all men possess
i’ll always be young, see a young mind is fresh
and its clear my memories will one day disappear unless
do you remember?
yes i remember
do you remember?

some say the price of life has a costly amount
when it comes to fights, i might’ve lost me a bout
but i’ve never lost my head ’cause that would cost me a scalp
so when my heart became cold like the austrian alps
i used to use my aggression, just to hurt mics
in ’86 my whole crew was in to dirt bikes
like the gt predator or a mongoose
listen as i ride the rhythm and let the rhymes loose
this is what makes my life so real
i’ll take my chances and spin the wheel
i can’t wait to grow up so i’ll know the deal
but right now i’m a child and this is how i feel
my younger days were sort of tragic despite
i learned to unify the pen and pad with the mic
i might need a little magic tonight
’cause to me imagination is the fabric of life
my rhymes helped me many times grow’n up
before keep’n it real, all the days are blow’n up
i put on shows in my room- n-body show’n up
i’m just a little guy now, but when i’m old enough

[chorus]

that was my train of thought
