Above The Clouds - Gang Starr

It has come to our attention that a mysterious force is loose
Somewhere in outer space, 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
Of 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 fire power, for it's mind power shared
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, 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, turnin' 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 combine, over the front line
The ten per centers, promotin' 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, reigning down, holdin' it down

Yeah, 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

And they deserve 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 colossus, regardless to whom or what
Numerous attempts at my life, so who to trust
Who but us, to supply you with the fire?
The burning truth, 150 absolute 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 more
But our hands are the ammo 'cause the battle's still on

Sound the horn, we come rumblin' through the function
Precise laser beam technique to touch somethin'
When we die hard, to build the monument to honor us with
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, warrior spiritual
Above the clouds, reigning down, holdin' it down

Above the crowds
Above the clouds where the sounds are original
Infinite skills create miracles, warrior spiritual
Above the clouds, reigning down, holdin' it down
