Ballin' hard, riskin' it all for change
Gave it all, look, nothin' changin'
6 fly, sky high, higher than you
Highly recommended, higher learning
Wavin' at Cloud 9 as we fly by, 99 in the sky
Wavin' at Cloud 9 as we fly by, 99 in the sky[Hook]
[Verse 1 - The Grind]
Ballin' hard off a broke clock, still watch tickin'
Risk it all for change, same block, same mission
Crack in the paint, crack in the pavement, still drippin'
Mama prayin' front porch, boy you trippin'
Tryna turn a wish to a whip, to a crib though
Same pain, same rain, let it drip though
Learned more from the L's than the wins though
Higher learning, street sermon, let it rip though
[Verse 2 - The Elevation]
6 fly, yeah we fly, sky high, higher than you
Jet fuel in a blunt, let it fire, what it do?
Highly recommended by the ones who never made it
Highly hated by the ones who never chased it
Wrote the code in the clouds with a burnt spoon
Left Cloud 9 on read, said "see you soon"
99 in the sky, we don't wave, we salute
Voodoo in the bassline, make the speakers root
[Verse 3 - Nothing Changin']
Riskin' it all and look, nothin' changin'
Same chain, same pain, same pages
Same cops, same watch, same cages
Same talk, big dreams, same wages
But we still outside, still loadin'
Still eyes to the sky, still hopin'
If the ground want me, gotta come and hold me
Till then, I'm fly, you can't control me
[Verse 4 - Cloud 9]
Wavin' at Cloud 9, yeah we fly by
They said we wouldn't be shit, tell 'em "hi, bye"
99 in the sky, not a lie, lie
Look down, whole city lookin' bite-size
Gold teeth grin through the turbulence
Voices in the beat like "this is urgent"
We ain't scared to fall, we rehearsed it
Higher learnin', higher burnin', that's the purpose
[Verse 5 - Highly Recommended]
Highly recommended, highly decimated
Highly underrated, highly elevated
Took a gram of faith, then I heavily weighted it
Took a gram of pain, then I heavily plated it
Professor of the pavement, PhD in patience
Ballin' hard with holes in my Asics
They want the recipe, can't trace it
Mac Cracker, Voodoo Riot, how we make it
[Verse 6 - 99 In The Sky]
Last verse, still first off the launchpad
Lost it all, got it back, that's a cashback
99 in the sky, we ain't ever comin' back down
If we ever touch ground, it's a touchdown
Ballin' hard for the ones who never got change
Riskin' it all even though nothin' changin'
6 fly, sky high, tell 'em keep rangin'
Higher learnin', forever reignin'
[Outro - Hook Fade]
Ballin' hard, riskin' it all for change...
Nothin' changin'...
6 fly, sky high, higher than you...
Wavin' at Cloud 9... 99 in the sky...
Voodoo Riot...
MAC Cracker.
