Desmond Michael - Ascension/ On Earth songtext (lyrics)

Don’t wanna come down cause
I’m just too high up
Can't feel the ground below
 just wind in the sky yeah
The stars shine bright on me
The moon is so blinding
Up into the unknown
My eyes burn from the light
Ascension, I ascend
Ascension, I ascend
Ascension, I ascend
Ascension, ascension

Where is the moon, it seems to left space
Suns always out, way too hot in this place
Nights are shorter and they’res longer days
It’s 9PM, the sun is still shining away
In my eyes, lost my mind and my soul
So many stories still untold
I’m too young to feel so old
Running up and down this burning summer road


The city of angels
Bringing me closer to the man Himself
So don’t ask where I’m heading

Don’t wanna come down cause
I’m just too high up
Can't feel the ground below
Just wind in the sky yeah
The stars shine bright on me
The moon is so blinding
Up into the unknown
My eyes burn from the light
Ascension, I ascend
Ascension, I ascend
Ascension, I ascend
Ascension, ascension

I make to the pearly gates
Don’t know where I am
I talk to the man Himself
And I tell him "I understand"
I point to the ground and
Ask him to look around
I make a promise to do the
Best as long as I’m allowed
On Earth, on Earth, on Earth
Part 2: On Earth

Good morning, good morning, good morning
You’re the one I’ve been waiting for
To see you prosper
And be the me I knew you could be
I’ve been waiting for you
Good morning

Good morning, we’re gathered here in mourning
Came up without warning, now I’m reaborning
Came up out the mud
On a chair with a story to share
I spoke to the Devil in prayer
Hands in the air
Knelt in the temple aware of actions I bared
Awoke to rebellious glares
Counting the squares
Dreams of being a rap star are
Really just dreams of success
The dream of achieving what I can
And putting my mind to rest
The dream of thinking, doing
And being my very best
The dream of satisfaction
That's all I'm trying to access
I don't want women, money, cars
Man flip the fame
I've never been into flashy rings
And flashing gold chains
Take this chain off my neck
I'm not gonna be nobody’s slave
I’m not changing my face
Not changing my name
And I say that with no shame
On a lust for fame
Make a grand on a graham
Cause nothing was the same
I think I see it now, the right lane
Remember my name
Jumping into the flame, but drowning in grace
I’ve had dreams of reaching the top
And no ones gonna stop it
I want the game on lock and
Key, throw away the key
Never unlock it
Everything I do in life
Imma do my damnedest to top it
Cooking in the kitchen, screw and choppin’
And as long as I’m Earth, I’ll never die
And as long as I’m Earth, I’ll never die
The confidence to jump off the
Roof and hope I fly
Rather be buried alive, then to die
With no goodbye
Maybe one day I’ll tell you
The story of my mental
Or how words so spiritual can
Come from one so cynical
Maybe one day
I’ll tell you how to pull up out the mud
And read a page from me
But for now the book shut

Told y’all I was more than rich
Middle class American
Spiritually set for life
Just trying to get the money right
My hope will never be lacking
God make sure my heart stacking
And that my mind stays alive
As long as I’m on Earth

This the motto, say with me


Keep the hustle while I’m on Earth
And get down to climb outta the dirt
Keep the hustle while I’m on Earth
And get down to climb outta the dirt
Keep the hustle while I’m on Earth
And get down to climb outta the dirt
Keep the hustle while I’m on Earth
And get down to climb outta the dirt
