[Intro]
(I watch a cloud sailing over us
Soon, the rain
And I shall compose some verses
On the inconstancy of happiness)
[Verse 1]
In the horizon, I saw these spies in disguise
Desolate cries, but didn't get their replies
Walking these paths with various tricks and gadgets
Cloak and dagger, the secrets in the black _______
Like magic in the night, we disappear in the mist
Then come back with a single kiss
Of deadly silence, sliding through the winter nights
The gathering started at the early lights
As we took flight in to the endless clouds
I saw him there vanishing into the crowd
But I stood proud, in my b-boy posture
You tried to follow but my patterns lost ya
That's how I broke you through the lies and deceits
And we lay motionless as we sat and weep
On the steps of marble, then it came clear
Dreams and life are all part of the same sphere
[Hook]
(look into my eyes)
Always walk the skies can't you see?
In this life of madness I have the eyes of dreams
(look into my eyes)
Always walk the skies, can't you see?
In this life of craziness I have the eyes of dreams
[Verse 2]
I walk a thousand realms, busting rhymes as I step
My aura gets open as the night starts to _____
But in the day, I see the whole world sway
You can never be sure which is the right way
See my life like clay, there to be molded
______ as these years unfolded
But to me the years, give or take all the fears
Through the laughter and sunshine
Then comes the tears that we shed
Red painted clouds float above
But I rock rhymes b-boy forever love
Starlight doves are flying
And s**as are dying
As life keeps on, I keep on writing
About these wild days and crazy nights
But in my flight, I see these ______ on my side
Have to take em down 'cus they're fronting on the scenes
Dreams of life and eyes of dreams
[Hook 2]
(look into my eyes)
Masquerades and silhouettes
(can't you tell?)
Silhouettes and masquerades
(can't you tell?)
[Verse 3]
The execution's begun, the sun reached the moonlight
The night protects the self, as I take flight
The leaf is the essence, disciples felt the presence
Reading these ancient scrolls told the lessons
Harmonies were broken, thoughts were spoken
Meditated with cloaked prophets, chiba smoking
The sabotage was planned, the land was in secrecy
But these traitors condemned the whole sh** immediately
The fight was for the honor the battle still in progress
Demons brought the stress but the gods had the rest
The test was the faith, the eighth day I saw it coming
Despair was in the air, the background I heard drumming
The chosen survive, ______ with shattered dreams
Minds were converted, silent wordless screams
Dreams of feelings pouring from the matrix
As they drink the poison chalice of d**h
[Hook]
(look into my eyes)
Always walk the skies can't you see?
(look into my eyes)
In this life of madness I have the eyes of dreams
(look into my eyes)
Always walk the skies, can't you see?
(look into my eyes)
In this life of craziness I have the eyes of dreams
[Outro:]
Masquerades and silhouettes
Eyes of dreams
Seeing life through dreams
Surreal...comes back to reality
The eyes of dreams, like
Eyes of dreams
We living lives of dreams
Spies come through, word, we out
'97, peace
(masquerade...)
