[INTRO]

This is Akbar

The intergalactic Asiatic star fighter

Creative rhyme writer

I meditate like a spider

And I'm with my man Rishi Nath

We teach math

Raptivist, black activist

Check the hi-five saphire

It's 'bout to go down in your town

1-2

1-2

Yo

Yo

[VERSE 1]

I was walkin down the street late one night

When I looked up in the sky cause I spotted a light

I said to myself it couldn't be the moon

And it wasn't a plane or a weather baloon

But whatever it was, it was ready to land

So I didn't try to play no Superman

I began to walk, then I started to run

So I could drop the dime, dial 911

I said, "Yo, Officer, I think that you should know

That I just spotted a UFO"

He said, "We can't go on just 'bout what you say

Cause we get calls like this everyday

In order for us to write out a report

You must have evidence of some sort"

Well, I didn't even get a chance to interrupt

Cause the next thing I knew, the pig hung up

I checked my watch, it was a quarter to four

Then I ran to the house, opened up the door

Jumped in the bed and took a Tylenol

And tried to forget the whole thing I saw

But it was what it was (What was it, cuz?)

But it was what it was (Aiyo Ak, what was it, cuz?)

But it was what it was (What was it, cuz?)

A UFO flyin low, I couldn't budge

Look up in the sky, it's a bird, it's a plane, feels like I'm stuck

I musta struck a nerve in my brain

Yo, I saw the Mothership

Visions of the Crystal City made a brother flip

It was the Mothership, yo, I saw the Mothership

Visions of the Crystal City made a brother flip

[VERSE 2]

I was smack dab in the middle of a wonderful dream

When I was suddenly awokened by a freightening scream

My first reaction was to grab my heat

Pulled down the covers, threw back the sheets

Looked over to the window, sprang to my feet

Outside I saw mad people on the street

In a state of shock, somebody called the cops

To quiet the riot but now they're pullin out glocks

Shuttin down blocks, bustin shots in the sky

But why even try to defy the Most High

It was a divine sign, encounter of the third kind

Let my words shine till the planets re-align

Tell the angels to hold the four winds

Before the world ends when the land descends

Introducin em to the New Jerusalem

To settle the pain and end the devil's reign

The mother came, I saw the mothership

You might think I'm on the brink of some other [edited]

But it was what it was (What was it, cuz?)

But it was what it was (Aiyo Ak, what was it, cuz?)

But it was what it was, actually

My angelic brothers was comin back for me

Yo, I saw the Mothership

Visions of the Crystal City made a brother flip

It was the Mothership, yo, I saw the Mothership

Visions of the Crystal City made this brother flip

It was the Mothership, yo, I saw the Mothership

Visions of the Crystal City made a brother flip

It was the Mothership, yo, I saw the Mothership

Visions of the Crystal City made this brother flip

(S.O.S., S.O.S., alien creatures are landing)
