Makes you kind of emotional when you realize this can and will happen some day. We can find new planets to thrive on, but Earth gave birth to us. It's like saying goodbye forever to your mother.

This song is obviously about the dead pet of Adam, his alligator! that is what "alligator sky" means, it's the heaven of alligators! and in the choir when it says "i'm never letting go" he is talking about his feelings that he can't accept its death. and the thing about rockets is that everyone in earth loved that alligator and they wanted to be with it so they began looking for the alligator heaven!! YEAHHHHH!!! I totally NAILED IT!!!

why are you lying ? this is from Adam`s facebook page: Another highlight is the first single, “Alligator Sky,” which features Los Angeles rapper Shawn Chrystopher. “’Alligator’ and ‘sky’ are two words that don’t really go together, but conjure up an image, which fits the idea of the song,” Young says. “It’s about how there are so many weird things coming at you every day. Why not just meet them head on and take charge even though you have no say over what’s going to happen? You and those around you are what matter most.”

and this is why I love Adam's music. I mean, we're watching a video of people leaving earth forever, but if you pay attention to the video and the scenery, it's not a sad horrible apocalypse that happened. In fact, it's like they're throwing a party, they make it happy, and that's what every one of his songs are about, joy and innocence to the deepest core. Embrace the innocence that you have left and look at everything with wonder.

Where was I when the rockets came to life, And carried you away, Into the alligator sky? Even though I'll never know what's up ahead, I'm never letting go, I'm never letting go! Uh-uh, that's not a plane, that's me! I'm sitting where I'm supposed to, floating on a cloud, can't nobody come close to! The concrete and the sky switch places, So now my ceiling is painted with cosmic spaces! Firecracker to the moon, keep your eyes shut! Blastin' off like a rocket from the ground up, Heh, I used to catch a cab on the Monday! Now the taxi's sellin' lights on the runway, Fly high condo on the Milky Way. A house on the cloud and God's my landlord, And for my rent all I pay is my drive! Got that so if you need me You can find me in the alligator sky! Where was I when the rockets came to life, And carried you away, Into the alligator sky? Even though I'll never know what's up ahead, I'm never lettin' go, I'm never lettin' go! Roller coaster through the atmosphere, I'm drowning in this starry serenade! Where ecstasy becomes cavalier, My imagination's taking me away! Reverie whispered in my ear, I'm scared to death that I'll never be afraid! Roller coaster through the atmosphere, My imagination's taking me away! Uh, now I'mma dance like I never dance, Sing like I never sing, dream like I never dreamed! Or try to, 'cause we've been lied to, That the sun is somethin' that we can't fly to! Well, I sit on my star and see street lights, Look up, ha, you'll miss me if you blink twice! Imagination is hot and if you got it you can meet me When you see me in the alligator sky! Where was I when the rockets came to life, and carried you away, Into the alligator sky? Even though I'll never know what's up ahead, I'm never lettin' go, I'm never lettin' go! (Prove it?)It's a fundamental trait in our human nature, Man must explore. Where was I when the rockets came to life, And carried you away, into the alligator sky? Even though I'll never know what's up ahead, I'm never lettin' go, I'm never lettin' go! In the alligator sky In the alligator sky In the alligator sky(In the alligator sky) In the alligator sky...

Owl city is known for their charming style and playful lyrics. Reck-it-Ralph-and-Oreo commercials kind of playful. Rap is quite different from this , and it turns off a lot of us OC fans since it strays from their signature style. I respect your opinion though and I'm glad you enjoy it 👍👍
