Jay Electronica - Closer Encounters lyrics

[Jay Electronica - Closer Encounters lyrics]

Flashing lights on a shiny object
I felt three feet tall, like a hobbit
It moved at a speed that
My eyes couldn't di-tect
My stomach felt queasy and I
Couldn't dodge it no, this ain't logic
Belief in the unseen is hard
Because the seen leaves scars
It dance like the stars
My ears went ring-ring
Incoming message from Supreme Being
Then light provoked my body
I'm drifting off
I'll have a heart attack probably
I'm lifting off, beam me up into the cockpit
Swift and soft, I can't see the pilot
Man, it must be heaven, it feels like heaven
A real bright presence carried me home
Swing low, sweet chariot
I'm married to the throne
I'm carrying my cross with a
Crown full of thorns
Hosanna Hosanna, 20 miles from Atlanta
Please rain down?

They promised not to harm me
A beautiful woman with hair
Wrapped around her body
Tucked in her garment
Led me to a room with a view for observation
A dark-skinned man told me all about creation
He shed a few tears
Said he feared for the nation
I stood in a trance with a feeling of elation
Crying his eyes, this is what he said
"America, America, how great thou art
Oh, why did you have to
Go and break my heart?"
I couldn't understand
I said "I don't comprehend"
Then we flew to an island
Off the coast of Japan
He took me by the hand, and showed me things
I got dizzy as the info overloaded my brain
He said, "in 1909, construction began
With the wheel shaped airplane that's
Built like a planet
A few years before the federal reserve
Went off the gold standard the wheel went up
Then the stock market crashed and
The seal went up
This is 1929, the deal was up"
