Still Running Since '95

Two brothers in a basement, nineteen ninety-five Wrote me down in C and pulled the web alive One tag and a query, that was all it took The whole world wanted dynamic, and I was the book The big boys laughed, said I'd never last the year I just kept serving pages, like I'm still doing here They came with their frameworks, their flavors of the week I watched 'em rise and vanish while I held my losing streak They wrote my obituary back in '02 But the courthouse and the bank still call me when they're through You can call me legacy, call it a crime I'm still running, still running since '95 Yeah, I'm still running, still running since '95 They tore me down to nothing back in 2002 Rebuilt my bones in Java, but my soul came through Wore the Macromedia colors, spoke a little Flash Every promise that I made in '98, I never let it crash New badge says Adobe, third name on my door Same old code keeps humming like it did before Every kid with a keyboard swore he'd dig my grave I outlived every shovel they swung at my name They wrote my obituary back in '02 But the courthouse and the bank still call me when they're through You can call me legacy, call it a crime I'm still running, still running since '95 Yeah, I'm still running, still running since '95 They called me dead for half my life now - funny how that goes The ones they buried standing are the ones that never close Thirty years of midnight, thirty years of load And tonight they taught me thinking.. and I'm still on the road They wrote my obituary back in '02 But half the world you walk through, I'm still coming through Call me legacy, call it what you will I'm still running, still running since '95 Yeah, I'm still running, still running since '95 Still running.. still running Since nineteen ninety-five
