[Verse 1: Jalal Nuriddin]

It was the end of the millennium and the last centennium, and all the scientists at the time

Were asked to describe the psychological vibe of phenomenon on the mind

A thousand years had passed and they were trying to grasp the mystery to be unraveled

How the future [?] and space and time doin' intergalactic travel

Their plans to escape had been taking shape, to leavе the earth for good

The sciеntific suspicions of space conditions had them wondering if they could

Their time-space calculations and math estimations, they measured the space in light-years

They had taken it for granted they could leave the planet, like a-climbin' a flight of stairs

[Verse 2: Jalal Nuriddin]

Between Venus and Mars lay a path to the stars, beyond the Milky Way

Beyond fortune and fate was the dreaded wait for the world to end one day

The technology [?] in the year of the dragon, imagination had been runnin' wild

But science fiction was a strange prediction of an inch turning into a mile

A panel was commissioned to plan an expedition for an eclipse that was due

Then watch and inspect the supernatural effect before the next space rendezvous

Given security clearances, and reservations for a seat

They left on their own and were secretly flown to a mountain top in Crete

Upon discussion of the matter they envisioned a ladder and a new type civilization

To supply and sustain a space base train for the sake of colonization

Space pictures had been made and then relayed which strengthened their convictions

That the new frontiers of the future was theirs to justify their predictions

There was a satellite mission, a launch in position, between the moon and sun

They solved the riddle, what happens in the middle when the two align as one

With their space base eye they scanned the sky to see which [?] came first

But there was no end in sight, only darkness and light in the realms of the universe

The theory's all hanged on a grand big bang with creation at its core

And they wanted to see the beginning of "be" which had never been seen before

They had a fascination with computer animation on the virtual reality scale

Having all spent billions that amounted to trillions, they couldn't afford to fail

With the eclipse due that was coming into view with a shadow cast direct

It was a lunar, solar, bipolar, black-and-white effect

One half day, the other night, one side black, the other white

With the northern hemisphere hidden from sight, they would have to rely on neon light

Now the story resembled, through the journals assembled, a science fiction script

Conceptually astounding, awesome and confounding, just like the name of the ship

Named "Intergalactic", it had a new tactic, a brand new solar space shield

To protect, deflect, and redirect any solar radiation field

Backed by solar panels that were lined up with channels of power conversion formations

To intercept and collect the sun's effect for new space exploration

In the nose cone tip was a smaller ship, run by a clone and a drone

It was scheduled to go beyond the planet Pluto, then further than they've ever flown

Their onboard computer was called the "Concluder", and responded at the speed of thought

But light was fast and they had yet to master light year space transport

This project was immense and filled with suspense as to whether it would succeed

To be successful was stressful, but failure was dreadful, because power plus money meant greed

[Verse 3: Jalal Nuriddin]

With the funding on the line, they were pressed for time, and they needed a stunning success

There was no known solution for earth's pollution, and the planet was in a mess

Nature was rebellin' and pollutant was smellin' and a-foulin' up the air

The fish in the sea were ceasin' to be, and the rain forests almost bare

[Verse 4: Jalal Nuriddin]

With the weather even stranger there was a real danger, the launch had been postponed

Until they were clear of earth's atmosphere, they wouldn't be on their own

And in times like years they could climb those stairs and establish an interplanetary station

But first thing's first they'd have to rehearse 'cause they had no invitation

Excitement was growin' and the cameras were showin' the countdown clock in motion

They marveled at the still and they all felt thrill as if the universe was just an ocean

Time went by fast and they were ready to blast off out into the stars

To find earth's twin and next of kin 'cause they couldn't grow food on Mars

[Vocal Chops]

But first thing's first-

But first thing's first-

But first thing's first-

They'd have to rehearse-

This is a musical connection

Callin' on [?]

Callin' on [?]

Callin' on [?]

Callin' on [?]

[Verse 5: Jalal Nuriddin]

The launch went smooth and it started to groove with champagne, cheers and applause

To realize their dream they worked as teams, with each one loyal to the cause

Ground control and command had things goin' as planned and all they had to do was wait

Their computer calculations would handle situations, malfunction or mistake

[?] theories and a prolonged series of lectures, films and charts

With computer simulations, awards and citations from the academy of sciences and arts

There were physicists, physicians, mathematicians, workin' on the project for years

Astronomers, ecologists, biologists, cosmologists, space age engineers

Professors from colleges, theorists, astrologists, [?] in the press

Military missions and politicians making up the rest

They could really make history, clearing up the mystery of the planet's hypothetical twin

With a lucky [?] that hadn't been [?] from the galaxy it was in

Now the second ship was fully equipped to fly out the solar system

But survival of the clone and the [?] was unknown, though they could afford to risk them

With everything in place, they reported back to space, but the message was filled with static

Time stood still, motion was nil, and [?] was automatic

[?] in their places, fear on their faces, surprised, stunned and shocked

Came the realization that they didn't own creation as time ran out on the clock

The ship had disappeared and they all felt weird at the supernatural fact

Science fiction was a prediction of the curtain closin' on their act

And as the planets slowly parted they were stopped before they started, floored by what they saw

The here and now and before and after, became no time and no no more
