Above The Clouds
Gang Starr Lyrics

It has come to our attention that a mysterious force is loose
We have noticed a strange, unknown power that is moving

Somewhere in outer space
Somewhere beyond our planet

The mysteries of creation are there
The enigmas of the universe exist

Up in the sky?
In the heights above us?

Up in the sky
Yes, up there

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
The moon, planets, and even new opportunities for learning and harmony are in outer space, and we are embarking on the most dangerous and precarious journey mankind has ever faced, so we seek God's favor

Prepared for liftoff
Ready to depart

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 mind power shared The brainwake, 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 frontline The ten percenters, promotin' slander in the airtime Bear in mind jewels be the tools of the trade Sharp veins heavenly praise and dues are paid
I, as the master over myself, will unleash destruction upon evil entities and capture evil spirits. Thunder, lightning and pitch-black darkness from the sun will strike down upon the Earth and overpower weaponry because it is the power of the mind. This power causes veins to circulate similar to the grouping of stars at night. This is a message to the father, and Mother Earth; that we must seek eternal life through Hell, no matter the cost. Observe and learn from others because even in difficult situations there are ways to gain knowledge. Don't become trapped; instead, expand your mind, let your thoughts flow freely like the street sweepers who clean up the city. I am a gifted storyteller and I am accompanied by a skilled DJ. Beyond the boundary of war, the chosen seven and a half combine, going over the frontline into enemy territory. 10% of people spread lies through media, but true wisdom is gained through hard work and dedication

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
Up above the masses and far into the sky where the sounds are unique and innovative. The skills are endless, creating unbelievable feats. A spiritual warrior who has ascended above, reigning supreme, maintaining a firm grip on what they have achieved.

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 Colosseum, 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 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 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 Humungous effect in the world we could have conquered it
I inflict mental trauma onto even the most knowledgeable of scientists. My talents are of monolithic proportions like that of rock gods who smash guitars. Divine messages rain down from the gods, piercing through illusions like bullets, violently overrunning every perceived obstacle. I catch and deflect attempts to bring me down like a skilled riot squad. Those who have wronged me deserves an equal ruin like that of ancient Rome, spanned across the entire universe and returned to Earth to take my rightful place as king. Creator, owner, and mastermind, God resting in the sky while I sit seated among the clouds. Stand like a colosseum, unfazed by any opponent, with many attempts on my life, trust is scarce. But who else could provide the spark? The truth that burns brighter than pure vodka providing pure and unaltered proof. On the microphone, speech so precise and potent like that of the biblical Moses, surviving the troubles that have wiped out entire groups of our people. I have spoken with families, mourning over what is lost, but with every weapon and tool we possess, we are ready to continue the fight, charging forward with the skill and precision of a laser beam. When we die, we will erect a monument commemorating our legacy, creating an indelible impression on the world
