Story Behind The Song
Feeling inspired I stayed up through the night till eight o'clock in the morning(may, 2000) to write this song.
Song Description
Gravity symbolizes a never ending circle of dependency. A trippy ascent that slowly builds through soulful intensity. A dash of blues, pinch of funk, and a tsp of hip-hop finish this unique taste.

Lyrics
intro
gravity pulls me down (four times)
verse 1
gravity pulls me down now
face first to the ground
like a bad dream I try to scream
but I can't make a sound
the fall from the sky burns
water fills my eyes can't see
makes me oblivious to the twist of fate that awaits me
it's up to you to save me
it's up to you to save me
Chorus
just put me down now or take me up high
you always throw me out when we begin to ride
don't leave me now I need you to fly
keep me in the clouds where I can never die
verse 2
I fall by the force of gravity down steadily
soon I'm gonna hit only one can rescue me
so if you've got my back please don't take your time
I need you now don't let me die
Chorus
just put me down now or take me up high
you always throw me out when we begin to ride
don't leave me now I need you to fly
keep me in the clouds where I can never die
verse 3
gravity pulls me down face first to the dirt
when I hit ground I know it's gonna hurt
I had to learn the hard way
I knew better all along they
all said you're wrong
but if it doesn't kill me it can only make me strong
only make me strong
Chorus
just put me down now or take me up high
you always throw me out when we begin to ride
don't leave me now I need you to fly
keep me in the clouds where I can never die
outro
put me down
