[Intro]

"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 on which man has ever embarked"

("Prepared for lift off")

[Verse 1: Guru]

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 brainwave causes vessels to circulate

Like constellations reflect at night off the lake

Word to the Father and Mother Earth

Seekin' everlastin' life through this Hell for what it's worth

Look, listen and observe

And watch another C-Cipher 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 combined, over the front line

The ten-percenters promotin' slander in their airtime

Bear in mind, jewels be the tools of the trade

Sharp blades, heavenly praise and dues are paid

[Chorus: Guru]

Above the crowds, above the clouds where the sounds are original

Infinite skills create miracles

Warrior spiritual

Above the clouds rainin' down, holdin' it down

[Verse 2: Inspectah Deck]

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

Invade your zone, 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 on my life, so who to trust?

Who but us to supply ya with the fire?

The burnin' truth, 150 Absolut proof

On the mic like Moses, spoke in golden scribe

Survivor of the oldest tribe whose soldiers died

I know the five families, we shed tears and mourn

But our hands are on 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, they'll build a monument to honor us with

Humongous effect in the world, we could've conquered it

[Chorus: Guru]

Above the crowds, above the clouds where the sounds are original

Infinite skills create miracles

Warrior spiritual

Above the clouds rainin' down, holdin' it down

Above the crowds, above the clouds where the sounds are original

Infinite skills create miracles

Warrior spiritual

Above the clouds rainin' down, holdin' it down
