Secrets Amongst Cosmonauts (Remix)
[Intro]
I want you to open your mind
A story of humankind's glory
I want you to open your mind to the possibility that one day we will make contact
I’m tellin' you the Cosmonauts love you
[Verse 1]
21,600 nautical miles
I got the same amount, if not more audible styles
By no means am I to interpret the absolute
I'm merely a vessel that the entity chooses to use
I’m raw energy, just like you
I don't teach 'cause teachers only receive contempt from the youth
I know what I know, there's no need to convincе you
The poetry's fairly simple, you pеrceive the visual
The grass isn't greener, it's browner
I believe in the power that spins the Earth around upward and outward
You say, "You don't like the album", I say you a coward
You say you don’t like the beats, I say what about ’em?
Whether or not you like the lyrics I would not be surprised
If you the Devil in disguise I can see it in your eyes
We are all equal, we are all sisters and brothers
In spite of our colour, all we have is each other, they love us
[Chorus]
This is a song written by God
Especially for you, this is the truth
A story of humankind's glory
If or when..
I’m telling you the Cosmonauts love you
[Verse 2]
Your sexual orientation is none of my business
But don't lie to yourself and don't lie to the children
Some of us are healthy, some of us have diseases
But if you look at the whole world we represent the human species
You can't ignore continents while they starve
You’ll be wearin' their shoes before long
As the globe becomes more warm
Families hold on but their country is war-torn, the prophecies are forewarned
You would've thought Katrina storm taught y'all
But nah, you're still too distracted ain't y'all?
I've come to learn that the Cosmonauts up high
Don't believe that we deserve another chance and I'll tell you why
We watch each other die, and we still racist
Not in my household, but in other places
The patience of the gods have run thin
Because of your sin, the Period of Purification will begin
[Chorus]
This is a song written by God
Especially for you, this is the truth
A story of humankind's glory
If or when..
I'm telling you the Cosmonauts love you
[Verse 3]
The procession will wash away
The world's sins with tsunamis and whirlwinds
Our world ends, but then it begins again
6,480 years later
The next civilization will dig our artifacts out of a crater
They will say that we were great but that they are greater
Humankind will continue to search for his creator
Wage war against the forces that try to enslave us
Send space probes to our celestial neighbours
We could stop the hatred
If we stop being racist, I believe the Cosmonauts will come down and save us
If humankind will accept all races
There's no reason that the Cosmonauts wouldn't save us
Love your neighbours, we're different, but God made us
Love all races, the Cosmonauts would love to save us
Basic Instructions Before Leaving Earth
Wake up, stop the hatred, the Cosmonauts wanna save us
[Chorus]
This is a song written by God
Especially for you, this is the truth
A story of humankind's glory
Why don't they land here in Saudi Arabia...
I'm telling you the Cosmonauts love you
