Lyrics

"The mysteries of creation are there." "Up in the sky?" "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, we ask God's blessing On the most hazardous and dangerous and greatest adventure on which man has ever embarked." "Prepared for lift off." I Self Lord and Master shall bring disaster to evil factors Demonic chapters, shall be captured by Kings 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 firepower, for it's mindpower shared The brainwave, 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 Cee Cipher pulling my peeps to the curb Heed the words, it's like ghetto style proverbs The righteous pay a sacrifice to get what they deserve Cannot afford to be confined to a cell Brainwaves swell, turning a desert to a well Experience the best teacher Thoughts will spray like street sweepers, little Daddy street preacher Illustrious feature, narrator you select Accompanied by Deck plus the DJ you respect The seven and a half combined, over the front line The ten percenters, promoting slander in the airtime 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 Warrior spiritual, above the clouds raining down Holding it down I leave scientists mentally scarred, triple extra large 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 Invade your zone, ruin like ancient Rome I span the universe and return to Earth to claim my throne The maker, owner, plus soul controller Ayatollah rest in the sky, the cloud's my sofa Stand like Collossus, regardless to whom or what Numerous attempts at my life, so who to trust Who but us, to supply ya with the fire The burning truth, 150 Absolut proof On the mic like Moses spoke in golden scribe Survivor of the oldest tribe whose soldiers died I notified families, we shed tears and mourn But our hands are on the ammo cause the battle's still on Sound the horn, we come rumbling through the function Precise laser beam technique to touch something When we die hard, they'll build a monument to honor us with Humungous effect in the world we could have conquered it
