Tie My Laces - Alec Benjamin

Just a young boy

At the starting line with his tunes on

And his shoes untied with a chip on

His shoulder side from what he tripped on

The last time he's Buzz Lightyear

With no hyper-drive

He's like Mike here

With no Nike Flight and he'll fall down

With his shoes untied

And he'll trip on to the finish line

And I'll try to write this song

If he gets there

And I want to write this song

I'd like to be the one who is on the podium

Take a photo for my mom

And show her that I've made it

I'd like to be the one who could write the perfect song

Just to show you that I've won

But I'll have to tie my laces

If I'm gonna make it

In that moment

When they hit the lights it looked golden

But it didn't feel right he was frozen

With the worst frostbite was he chosen

Like an Israelite pick the quotient

That you can't divide like two oceans

Stranded on the other side his devotions

On the other side his emotions

On the other side

And I'll try to write this song

If he gets there

And I want to write this song

I'd like to be the one who is on the podium

Take a photo for my mom

And show her that I've made it

I'd like to be the one who could write the perfect song

Just to show you that I've won

But I'll have to tie my laces

If I'm gonna make it

And then I'll end this song

In 2051

And sing it for my son

And then I'll tie his laces

Just a young boy at the starting line line line line

I'd like to be the one who is on the podium

Take a photo for my mom

And show her that I've made it

I'd like to be the one who could write the perfect song

Just to show you that I've won

But I'll have to tie my laces

If I'm gonna make it

Just a young boy at the starting line
