Lyrics and translation

Original

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

Of which man has ever embarked

Our self-lord and master shall bring disaster to evil factors

Demonic chapters shall be captured by kings

Through the storms of days after

And to the earth from the sun through triple darkness to blast ya

With a force that can't be compared to any firepower

For its mind power shared, the brainwave causes vessels to circulate

Like constellations reflect at night

Often late, word to the father and mother earth

Seek an everlasting life through this hell for what it's worth

Look, listen, and observe, and watch another sea cycle 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 is 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

It's seven and a half combined, over the front line

The ten-percenters, promotin' slander in the airtime

Bear in mind, jewels be the tools of the trade, sharp blades

Heavenly praise, and dues are paid, above the crowds

Above the clouds, where the sounds are original

Infinite skills create miracles, warriors spiritual

Above the clouds, rainin' down, holdin' it down

Yeah, I leave scientists mentally scarred, triple-electro lords

Wild like rock stars who smash guitars, poison bars from the guards

Bust holes in your mirage, and catch a charge

Shake them down like the riot squad, invasion zone

Ruin like ancient Rome, I span the universe and return to earth

To claim my throne, the maker, owner, plus sole controller

Ayatollah, rest in the sky, the clouds, my sofa

Stand like colossus, regardless to whom or what

Numerous attempts in my life, so who to trust, who but us

To supply you with the fire, the burning truth, 150 absolute proof

On the mic like Moses, spoken golden scribe, survivor of the oldest tribe

Whose soldiers died, I know the five families, we shed tears and mourn

But our heads are on the ammo, 'cause the battle's still on

Sound the horn, we come rumbling through the function

Precise laser beam technique to touch something

When we die hard, they build a monument to honor us with

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

Above the clouds, above the clouds

Where the sounds are original

Infinite skills create miracles, warriors spiritual

Above the clouds raining down, holding it down

Above the crowds above the clouds

Where the sounds are original infinite skills

Create miracles warriors spiritual above

The clouds raining down holding it down
