Above the Clouds
Inspectah Deck Gang Starr Lyrics

It has come to our attention that a mysterious force is loose
There is something we don't yet understand that is affecting the world.

Somewhere in outer space
This force is located beyond our planet.

The mysteries of creation are there
These unknown forces are part of the vast and complex universe.

Up in the sky?
Are these forces found in the skies?

Up in the sky
Yes, these forces are located above us.

The moon and the planets are there
The celestial bodies in our solar system are part of the mysterious forces.

And new hopes for knowledge and peace are there
Exploring these forces could lead to greater understanding and harmony.

And therefore as we set sail, we ask god's blessing
We seek divine guidance and protection for this great, unknown journey.

On the most hazardous, and dangerous, and greatest adventure
This expedition is perilous but it is also momentous.

Of which man has ever embarked
This is an endeavor that no one has ever done before.

Prepared for liftoff
We are ready to launch into space and begin this journey.

I self lord and master shall bring disaster to evil factors
As a powerful force myself, I will vanquish those who seek to do harm.

Demonic chapters, shall be captured by kings
Even the most wicked creatures will be brought under control by those with great power.

Through the storms of days after
Despite facing great adversity and obstacles.

Unto the earth from the sun through triple darkness to blast ya
My power is so great that it can travel from the sun to the earth and beyond.

With a force that can't be compared
The power I possess is unlike anything else in existence.

To any firepower, for it's mind power shared
My strength comes from my mental abilities, not just physical force.

The brainwake, causes vessels to circulate
My power can awaken and activate the body and mind.

Like constellations reflect at night off the lake
My power is like the stars shining down on the earth's surface.

Word to the father, and mother earth
I give respect to the divine and our planet.

Seeking everlasting life through this hell for what it's worth
We strive for immortality during our time on earth despite the challenges.

Look listen and observe
Pay attention and be aware of your surroundings and the world around you.

And watch another c-cypher pullin' my peeps to the curb
Don't be led astray or allow others to take advantage of you.

Heed the words, it's like ghetto style proverbs
My words and lessons are like powerful messages passed down through generations.

The righteous pay a sacrifice to get what they deserve
Those who align with righteousness often have to sacrifice to achieve their goals.

Cannot afford to be confined to a cell
We must break free from anything that holds us back, both physically and mentally.

Brainwaves swell, turnin' a desert to a well
Our thoughts can manifest great change, transforming something barren into something fruitful.

Experience the best teacher, thoughts will spray
We learn from our experiences and those experiences can shape our thoughts and actions.

Like street sweepers little daddy street preacher
We can spread knowledge and truth to others, even through small actions.

Illustrious feature, narrator you select
I am a distinguished and notable figure who can tell stories and share knowledge.

Accompanied by deck plus the DJ you respect
I am supported by talented and respected individuals who contribute to my power and message.

The seven and a half combine, over the frontline
We are a powerful force of individuals working together to make an impact.

The ten percenters, promotin' slander in the airtime
There are those who work against us, spreading lies and negativity.

Bear in mind jewels be the tools of the trade
Our knowledge and wisdom are invaluable resources in our work.

Sharp veins heavenly praise and dues are paid
Our words are powerful and impactful, and our success and achievements are earned through hard work.

Above the crowds, above the clouds where the sounds are original
Our power and influence reaches beyond the ordinary and mundane world.

Infinite skills create miracles
Our abilities are so great that we can accomplish the seemingly impossible.

Warrior spiritual, above the clouds
We are powerful spiritual beings, transcending the physical world and ascending to new heights.

Reigning down, holdin' it down
We are the masters of our domain, our power and influence reigning strong and unwavering.

Yeah, I leave scientists mentally scarred, triple extra large
My power is so great that even scientists are left stunned and awed.

Wild like rock stars who smash guitars
My energy and strength is akin to that of a wild rock star.

Poison bars from the gods bust holes in your mirage
My words and actions can destroy illusions and falsehoods.

And catch a charge shake em down like the riot squad
I can take strong and aggressive action to defeat my foes.

And they deserve ruin like ancient Rome, I span the universe
My power and influence are far-reaching and can defeat even the mightiest of foes.

And return to earth to claim my throne
I am triumphant and powerful, returning to claim what is rightfully mine.

The maker, owner, plus soul controller
I am in control, possessing the power to create and rule as I see fit.

Ayatollah rest in the sky, the cloud's my sofa
I am comfortable and at ease with my power and reign, reigning strong even in the sky.

Stand like Colosseum, regardless to whom or what
I stand strong like an immovable stone structure, regardless of the obstacles and challenges I face.

Numerous attempts at my life, so who to trust
Many have tried to bring me down or take my power, so I must be discerning in who I trust.

Who but us, to supply you with the fire?
We are the ones with the power and reach to ignite change and make an impact.

The burning truth, 150 Absolut proof
Our message and truth is strong and undeniable.

On the mic like Moses spoke in golden scribe
Our words are equally powerful and impactful, like the words of the prophet Moses.

Survivor of the oldest tribe whose soldiers died
We are the surviving members of a powerful tribe, our strength and influence continuing despite great loss.

I notified families, we shed tears and more
As we continue our work, we are aware of the sacrifices and losses we may face along the way.

But our hands are the ammo cause the battle's still on
Despite the setbacks, our strength and power continue, and we will fight on.

Sound the horn, we come rumblin' through the function
We are a powerful force, bringing change and impact wherever we go.

Precise laser beam technique to touch somethin'
Our power and influence is exact and precise, able to make an impact on anything we touch.

When we die hard, to build the monument to honor us with
Even in death, we will leave a legacy and a lasting impact on the world.

Humungous effect in the world we could have conquered it
Our power and ability to make change is massive and impactful enough to conquer the world.

Above the crowds, above the clouds where the sounds are original
Our power and influence transcends the mundane and ordinary world to reach new heights.

Infinite skills create miracles
Our abilities are vast and powerful, and can accomplish amazing feats.

Warrior spiritual, above the clouds
Our strength and power comes from a spiritual source, lifting us above the physical world.

Reigning down, holdin' it down
We are firmly in control, and will continue to hold our power and influence.
