Underwater

Lyrics

[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."
