Up in the Air

about

Up in the Air is a story of a girl who falls in the trap of rosy love story and gets used by a boy.
It is expressed as a rap screaming out to the vulnerable urban young girls to think objectively and have courage to fight against physical, mental and emotional abuse, against the opposite sex who sometimes takes advantage of their innocence and ignorance.

lyrics

This is the story of the girl who never knew
What the *uck was going through when she was getting screwed
How it started with a glance
she thought it was romance
don’t laugh about it, talk about it
could have been your stance
It’s a shame how we say
What we do when we play
“ What the fuck, we’re treated like a lay”
Don’t stand there and watch me
don’t sit there and stare
Take a stand now
Put your hands up in the air

Up in the air Up in the air

This boy he came along
Serenading with his song
And all she did was sway along
Trust him like a bomb
He said its alright to trust what is trust that you’re trusting
And last of all it ended all
What happened was lusting
The good life the good times
Basking in your glory
Take a minute think about it
Could have been your story
He was coming home each night
Defeated from some fight
She did it like a slut for him in the candlelight
He ruined her body and crucified her soul
I swear I love you baby
So holy is your hole

Its time for some creation and all imagination
For all around we see some existential masturbation
I feel like hibernation. Is that hallucination?
Why's there juxtaposition and lies in information
A need of observation, Maybe intoxication
is all we need to change this mundane sort of situation
Bittersweet memories
moments of history
Let music do the healing
Let the beat sway your heart

No no I am not falling
I am not falling down
I am gonna fight until the end
I am not gonna be bound
This is my message to all of my friends
I am gonna choke before
i make you shout this sound

For the sake of freedom – put your hands up
For the sake of liberation – put your hands up
For the sake of strength – put your hands up
For the sake of you – put your hands up
Put your hands up put your hands up !
