Biography

Outerspace is the brainchild of Philadelphia MC's Planetary and Crypt the Warchild. The philosophy of Outerspace runs much deeper than music; it's literally a family. The two founding members have been friends almost since birth and found a common bond in the music they grew up on such as Gangstarr and EPMD. The Outerspace vision began to take shape in the early 90's as the duo worked tirelessly to hone the skills that would eventually lead to an alliance with fellow Illadelphians Jedi Mind Tricks and their home-grown label Superegular Recordings. In 1998, Superegular released their debut single We Lyve which was met with critical praise for its complex, scientific rhymes and ethereal, seemingly other-worldly beats.

LYRICS

[Verse 1:]
Man if I ain't tryin to live something gotta give
Can't die with four kids, gotta get off the bridge
Roses turn black when the rain fall
Sunshine make the moon rise, city look like an 8 ball
Lazy niggas get praised for their hard work
Hard workers getting paid less than they all worth
Rap was a dream, now it turned to nightmares
Wack shit get the airplay every night here
Feels like the east coast down south
And the west is my home showing love all around no doubt
We out support from the fans there Red Eyed and meet my whole Jedi fam there
Peace too violent when the war sustained
Like people enjoy hearing love turning into pain
Hugs turn the shame, the ride gets rougher
Even though the money right still life gets tougher
More money more problems they say
Big died rich right things go the wrong way
And love don't pay so now I gotta hate rap
Take that watch the blood drip off the ADAT

[Chorus:]
You can live or die, be seen or be vanished
How can you be so blind and still see havoc?
How could you say you fear nothing with no courage?
Live life after death and may your soul perish

You can live or die be seen or be vanished
How can you be so blind and still see havoc?
How could you say you fear nothing with no courage
Live life after death and may your soul perish

[Verse 2:]
They throw stones at me, they call me Christ
I feel hatred coming from all walks of life
I'm a general betrayed by his lieutenant
I'm a victim to a snitch for reduced sentence
I am a runaway slave in a dark alley
Pitchfork, sickle, machete until the law catch me
I'm a king that's surrounding by loyal knights
I got soldiers that'll die when the time is right
I got the best of both worlds so I'm level headed
I feel love, feel hate and I don't regret it
I've had hopes and dreams that were crazy crushed
I've been blessed by God, I embraced the touch
I expect the worst, appreciate the best
I drink away my pain, alleviate my stress
I'm good, I'm bad, I'm wrong, I'm right
I'm the new day that dawns when you say goodnight
I've been put to rest and then resurrected
I've been praised by many and then felt neglected
Hung out to dry but I'm well protected
I don't poli much but I'm well connected

[Chorus:]
You can live or die, be seen or be vanished
How can you be so blind and still see havoc?
How could you say you fear nothing with no courage?
Live life after death and may your soul perish

You can live or die be seen or be vanished
How can you be so blind and still see havoc?
How could you say you fear nothing with no courage
Live life after death and may your soul perish
