Underwater lyrics
by Masta Killa
[Verse: Ghostface Killah]
Yo...
Ayo, I'm lost underwater
I see a pink door with a crystal handle, so I keep swimming
Amazed that I'm not drowning
Butterflies took control when I arrived
I opened the door–no, I knocked first, I'm not on my turf
I seen a ray of lights that resemble live fireworks
Some mermaids with Halle Berry haircuts, flashing they tail, like:
"Follow me now, don't be afraid
I'ma show you where all the djinns and spirits pray
If you scared to face this life, you should've stayed"
So I kept on swimming, grabbed on to her fin to help me out
As we got close, I seen the boat all shot up with its anchor out
Then she asked me politely what I'm thinking about
I said "Nothing"
She said, "Nothing leaves nothing, if you feel me?
I bet this'll bring that out"
I seen rubies, diamonds – smothered under octopus
Jellyfish, sharks, saw an aquaproof pocketbook
Pearls on the mermaid girls
Gucci belts that they rock for no reason, from a different world
Up ahead lies Noah's Ark
But that's waves aways... {*echoes with a wave*}
"Look up to the right, that's one of our bangin' spas,"
She quoted, I took notice; Spongebob in the Bentley Coupe
Bangin' the Isleys, he spoke, backed up, then he passed me, swoop
Seen his chick eyeing me hard, he got vexed and smacked his boo
Took off, continued my travels
Seen a rock from the Titanic, looking fat, and nah, it wasn't damaged
Then I seen somethin real big
Sky blue and gold with white walls –
Behind a large city that was lost before Christ walked the walk–
Upon the waters, it's so bright
Every time we got close, the mermaid held on tight
All I heard was "Allahu Akbar, Allahu Akbar!"
"Bismillah ar-Rahman, ar-Raheem, Allah" –
A scream that we heard from up far
Everyone selat'ed in the world's bangin'-est mosque
Got crowded in, with light that I can't explain
They said "Sir, yes, I'm glad you came"
Greeted me with Qu'rans and Torahs, prayed –
After that we said "Amen."
