Intro (Mr. Lif)

Now what's the other side look like but pure light?
Sip from the glory immersed in your fight
Rise from your plight
Leap to new heights
Your fire ignite til you illuminate night

Verse 1 (Mr. Lif)

I was getting the crowd just as hyped as they can be
Now they wanna see if I can truly MC
The Master of Ceremonies
Soul controller
Off hand
Without a stand
The mic holder
That when I stepped back and busted a verse
It was so damn raw, the crowd nearly dispersed
They were ducking for safety
and running for cover
The mic glowed
So I let it go, and it hovered

The doors lock
Now meet Lif, the Warlock
"But he was such a nice guy"
You're in shock

The beast released and you can see it on stage
A transformation
Now warn the nation
The sensation of intrigue fills your mind

I take a glance
See you're entranced
Now you're mine

And I won't let you go
Til we reach the pinnacle
A couple cats in the back
Are y'all cynical?

I reverse the venue
So I can tell you
to your face with a wave of bass

Douse you in that
DJ spin back
Pause...
Give em just a moment to react

Now we're back with the hacksaw Jim Duggan
You thought the show was over, well you were buggin'

Now everybody STOP
Now lemme hear you say GO!
("GO!!")
Crowd Control

Chorus (Ayla)
Hear - while we spinning here
Story wound as a spool of sound
Weaving you

Hear - while we spinning here
Story wound as a spool of sound
Weaving you

Verse 2 (Mr. Lif)

Now I've got sole control of this M.I.(C)
That's in my..
Palm
Some consider this a napalm..
bomb
You're not right, but not wrong
It unconfirmed, so just learn and sing along

You get religious with this
like a psalm
Bottom line
with rhyme
you can't go wrong
You heard this?
The purpose
to take you beyond
So you can get past setbacks and stand strong

The urge to listen
To inhibitions
Collides with desires to thrive and have visions

The path is to see this clash and move through
Observe
Wait for my words
And on 2..

We go
We flowin' in our own direction
With rare selections
To clear the spectrum

One
Now the job is only half done
Two
As we agreed, you bust through

Now what's the other side look like
but pure light?
Sip from the glory, immersed your fight
Rise from your plight
Leap to new heights
Your fire ignite
Til you illuminate night

Now when I snap my fingers, everybody come to

Remember these words I used
And follow through

Now everybody STOP!..
Now let me hear you say GO!
(Go!!)
Crowd Control

Verse 3 (Ayla)
They swarm like hornets, I was born to pour this
Came from a flame that can't be extinguished
Lifted to tip the scale to the witness
Tongue takes a life of it's own, and I’m in this
Mind to word, fear to verb, pin it
Take an eruption of awe and just spin it
Dancer of parable rain to the maker
Awake to the sleepwalking walk like a seeker

Chorus (Ayla)
Hear - while we spinning here
Story wound as a spool of sound
Weaving you

Outro (x2)

Now what's the other side look like but pure light?
Sip from the glory immersed in your fight
Rise from your plight
Leap to new heights
Your fire ignite til you illuminate night

END SONG
