I terraformed the noise 
I terraformed the Sound 
Im Interstella High 
7th Realm In da Clouds 

Im walking thru da void 
Im grinding thru da drought 
I dont need the fame 
But im thankful for da clout 

Im ballin like ethereals  
Terraforming a Moon 
Messing wit my tribe 
Yea You gone meet your doom 

Im the elden lord 
Stacking these Runes 

Chaos emeralds 
Got yo jezebel 
In the mood 

My time is on the way 
It shoulda came soona 
Im  Ina Space War 
Above Farum Azula 

I do have the time 
For games and lies 
Chaotic melodies 
Bout time I synchronize 

Im viben offa Faith 
Im viben off da Rage 
If these the end times 
 ill go out ina blaze 

Im smokin mary jane 
To help me ease the pain 
Betrayed by the snakes 
In da Garden of the Drakes 

Yall tell me to grind 
So I grind harder  the Man on Mars 
Yea STVRGVZ3R John Carter 

Sigils on my body 
Yea im tatted up 
Counting all this skrilla 
Watch me added it Up 

Im deep up in my gnosis 
Im deep up in my mythos 
I surgin thru da vortex 
transcending thru a Limbo 

Walking a thin Line 
Trynna go and get mine 
I done lost my mind 
Viben to High wit The God
