  • Aston Martin king, Luther with dreams
    The young Denzel the way I move through scenes
    I'm like a preacher that once was a fiend
    A story of change that came with wings
    Pretty as the skyline, the sky is my eyeline
    Son of the most so from up high I shine
    Suited in Prada, stay mellow like lala
    Young, fresh, with dollars, ladies go gaga
    I'm the cum-lada, top of the class
    Black Wall Street so my stock will never crash
    Given what I ask, pure religion and cash
    From the windows that open, I'm raising my glass
    Daylight beams, night life schemes
    This is my inception, I'm writing my dreams
    Immortal view of a star doing what I'm born to do
    I see the blue sky, see the Lord's coming through

    Ohh, in the sky we'll find the light
    Ohh, until high we'll shine at night
    Now we in the skies, blue skies
    And we going higher, that's right

    It all started with a dream, I wanted to be Run-D.M.C
    The Lord put the blessing upon the MC
    O to the M, dreams were spoken to him
    That's when I knew my flows would overflow to the rim
    Open my eyes, yes sir this is what I'm made for
    To go hard in the paint like D. Wade or
    D. Rose, from the same streets that we rose
    International heroes at world primos
    Red carpet magic, taking pictures with the president
    Told him for health care, my music is the medicine
    My name holds weight, I am never hesitant
    Different state resident, this is hood elegance
    SLS classic, pursuing my passion
    NOVA Fashion, now I'm Oscar party crashing
    Immortal view of a star doing what I'm born to do
    I see the blue sky, see the Lord's coming through

    Ohh, in the sky we'll find the light
    Ohh, until high we'll shine at night
    Now we in the skies, blue skies
    And we going higher, that's right

    Silhouettes of dreams that we had high, huh
    Even now it don't seem so bad ma
    Close my eyes to see things in front of me
    I'm gone now, imagine what I'm gonna be
    Dirty to worthy, now I'm all wordy
    My broad up in Paris, looking all purty
    Immortal view of a star doing what I'm born to do
    I see the blue sky, see the Lord's coming through

    Now we in the skies, blue skies
    And we going higher, that's right

    I had these dreams in my head of an endless fear
    I could see it from my window
    Wouldn't take that long to get me there
    Keep running til' I can go
    Remember the beautiful things that life could give me
    Crazy how I'm the one
    Could've been any way, but I'm sitting in the air
    With the wheels up staring at the sun
    Ohh, in the sky we'll find the light
    Ohh, until high we'll shine at night
    Now we in the skies, blue skies
    And we going higher, that's right Writer/s: ERNEST WILSON, JAMES FAUNTLEROY, JEFF LYNNE, LONNIE LYNN, MAKEBA RIDDICK
