Battling
An immortal ascended master
Transformed
Black belted as a panther
Handling the macabre
Felt through this massacre
Drunken style swagger
Dismantles crews faster
Solar stance captures

Cloak and dagger whack rappers
Watch solid bones split to fracture

Blasting like fragile cold plaster
Agile turbulent flows
Grapple rap dastards
While circling henchmen
Hold disaster
A shogun
Unearthly dimensions
Fervently dismembering
Cursed intentions

Overall Meaning

The opening lines of Total Science & S.P.Y's song Above the Clouds describe an epic battle scene between the singer, an "immortal ascended master," and his opponents. The master is transformed and black belted, while his foes are cloaked in "cloak and dagger" and are "whack rappers." The imagery in the lyrics is vivid and violent, with references to "massacre," "fragile cold plaster," and "liquid guillotine swords."


As the song progresses, the lyrics take on a mystical quality, with references to "unearthly dimensions" and "holy man from the foreign Shaolin shadowlands." There is a sense of foreboding as the lyrics allude to Armageddon and the advent of four deadly horsemen inventions. The singer is described as a "true master" who is "locked in constant conflict" but is also able to channel his "chi-energy" and grapple with his foes using "hazardous bo staffs" and "steel eagle talons."


The lyrics of Above The Clouds are rich in metaphor and allusion, and can be interpreted in many different ways. At its core, the song seems to be about spiritual warfare, with the singer battling against the forces of darkness and trying to ascend to a higher spiritual plane.
