Hooo ahhh! 
High as a motherfucker 
Zonin on cloud nineteen as the Def Squad takes you 
on another eerie place... of a dark side 
Yesssss!!! 

[Keith Murray] 
I escape from the world 
To show niggaz that my style is superb 
For what it's worth I'm gettin off planet Earth 
but I gotta redefine gravity first 
So I figure I get my guns and I bust the biggest cap 
from the demand of the trigger 
I'm equipped to dip with a knapsack 
and a survival kit, with blunts n shit (word!) 
I'm in all black, ?with a face? money 
wanna double to NASA, to hijack a space shuttle 
More ages than curiosity 
I enter the backdoor with animosity ("Yeah, here's Murray!") 
Searchin for the astronauts, checkin my watch 
Determined the time I had to be out 
I saw my prey without a second delay 
Suited up, strapped down, straight and on my way 
For five seconds to liftoff I was in the Hell 
when I escaped from the world 

I escaped from the world (4X) 

So far... 
I went through a Milky Way of stars 
And landed on my destination, which was Mars (whoa, shit!) 
This planet was foreign and new 
As I'm puffin on a blunt, observin the view 
To my surprise, a spaceship arrived 
Out came a Martian, with six fingers and three eyes 
He spoke a bleeky type of dialect ("Bleek, bleek bleek bleek bleek bleek") 
but understood my form of intellect 
I said, "I'm Keith Murray from the planet Earth 
Boy I'm psychosomatic and homicidal with a verse" 
My hypercritical form of words busts his brains 
and then the whole atmosphere changed ("What the fuck?") 

rrarahrhagharhar rharhagahgahrahgh 

I was surrounded by some Martians in the hut about to front 
I used my last resort, and pulled out the Blunts 
Lit it, got the whole Martian crew blitted 
So now's my chance to try to get acquitted 
I said, "I escaped from the planet Earth 
to let my mind untwirl because I'm mad at the world 
And the murder wasn't premeditated 
My language was just mis-interpretated" 
One acknowledge I'm right and pulled out the peace pipe 
Aight? About to set the vibes right 
He lit it with his finger, I smelled the Martian buddha linger 
I felt good cause I released some anger 
No sooner than the cease of the herb ignite 
I was headed back to Earth at the speed of light 
Upon my return niggaz thought I was in jail 
Nah kids... I escaped from the world

As we zone, on the cosmic type of funk 
(escapism y'all) 
We drop mad flows, for the 1990's 
(escapism y'all, escapism y'all) 
The Funk Doctor Spock signin off live 
(escapism y'all, escapism y'all, escapism y'all) 
This is how we do 
(escapism y'all, escapism -- escape from the world) 
Flows enough for the nineteen ninties and we OUT! 
(escapism y'all)
