LYRICS FOR "Above the Clouds"
It has come to our attention that a mysterious force is loose
Somewhere in outer space
Up in the sky
The moon and the planets are there
And new hopes for knowledge and peace are there
And therefore as we set sail
On the most hazardous and dangerous and greatest adventure
Of which man has ever embarked
I self lord and master shall bring disaster to evil factors
Demonic chapters
Through the storms of days after
Unto the earth from the sun through triple darkness to blast ya
With a force that can't be compared
To any fire power
The brain wake causes vessels to circulate
Like constellations reflect at night off the lake
Word to the father and mother earth
Seeking everlasting life through this hell for what it's worth
Look listen and observe
And watch another c-cypher pullin' my peeps to the curb
Heed the words
The righteous pay a sacrifice to get what they deserve
Cannot afford to be confined to a cell
Brainwaves swell
Experience the best teacher
Like street sweepers little daddy street preacher
Illustrious feature
Accompanied by deck plus the DJ you respect
The seven and a half combine
The ten per centers
Bear in mind jewels be the tools of the trade
Sharp veins heavenly praise and dues are paid
Above the crowds
Above the clouds where the sounds are original
Infinite skills create miracles
Above the clouds
Yeah
Wild like rock stars who smash guitars
Poison bars from the gods bust holes in your mirage
And catch a charge shake 'em down like the riot squad
And they deserve ruin like ancient Rome
I span the universe and return to earth to claim my throne
The maker
Ayatollah rest in the sky
Stand like colossus
Numerous attempts at my life
Who but us
The burning truth
On the mic like Moses spoke in golden scribe
Survivor of the oldest tribe whose soldiers died
I notified families
But our hands are the ammo 'cause the battle's still on
Sound the horn
Precise laser beam technique to touch somethin'
When we die hard
Humongous effect in the world we could have conquered it
Above the crowds
Above the clouds where the sounds are original
Infinite skills create miracles
Above the clouds
Above the crowds
Above the clouds where the sounds are original
Infinite skills create miracles
Above the clouds
