Simplex - The Night The Heavens Cried lyrics

[Hook:] The night, The night the heavens cried. They cried It was the night, the night inside I died 'cause they cried [Verse 1: Mic Lez] Cracking open a drink whenever I sit back and think Recapture visions in a blink is when I really start to sink so f**ing low No where to turn, no where to go Slowly drifting away from reality into memory's that I know 'Cause the 20th of the 6th 99' was the day That fate took my mate just wish I could clean the slate By starting off again from beginning to the end And I could bring back my friend and we'd remain to depend On each other, we'll always miss you, our brother There's no place in the world that we could ever find another Such like yourself, 'cause, man, those were the times Chilling, listening to rhymes and acting out the mimes We were always having fun, I just want one More conversation, us two face-to-face And who cares what place we're in, 'cause love's from within Plus whats within is what you've given us Memory's and trust, which will never leave No matter how much we grieve, that's why I believe [Interlude 1: Simplex & Raph A.L.] That's why I believe That's why I believe That's why I believe That's why I believe [Verse 2: Simplex] There's more to what we receive When our spiritual energy leaves the body We see the man that's deceased not the soul that's released On a journey never to cease on peace Please just ease the pain that eats away at me This strange too hard to maintain, the stress overloading the brain The depression is rising again This strange agression is destine, to be heading in my direction Whenever the question is about believes That's why I believe! [Verse 3: Raph A.L.] That's why I believe, the vibes that I receive Is nothing but your love shining down from up above Shining way more than the sun could ever shine Shining so bright springing me back into line Slowly realising in life the things that really count The f**ed facts and figures and your bullsh** amounts Mates that keep pretending, just waiting for the pounce But there's no way they'll ever get to just what really counts That belongs in my heart There's no way I'll ever let it part (There's no way we'll ever let it part) Now standing under heaven, while it was crying With feeling of being cheated like someone was lying But this sh** was reality Really heartbreaking, man, a tragedy So every night, when I'm having sessions, I look up to the sky Sit there and stare 'cause we're asking questions why Our best friend departed us and died When friends pa**ed away was the night the heavens cried (The night the heavens cried) [Hook:] The night, The night the heavens cried. They cried It was the night, the night inside I died 'cause they cried [Verse 4: Simplex] Barely concious, the phone rings I was awoken Only to answer to someone broken by mates voice softly spoken What he was quoting was the news of a tragedy I didn't get it first time so he had to repeat it back to me Escaping his breath, his breath and virus infected my soul With feelings took years hat to take a second to gain control Taking the toll, revealed once again But this time is in the form of a loss of a friend Blending the confusion and sadness took me unaware So I returned to take evacuate myself from this nightmare But the dream it had seemed but the truth remained real Which was later backed up bu the way we all feeled The mornings of mourning, the afternoon just came too soon to a life Which was just starting to bloom From the womb to the tune your in our hearts and our heads Now his family and friends are held together by threads [Interlude 2:] From the womb, womb to the tune I know he's looking over me, after me Because, strength is hard to find But the strength you left behind is what we all need [Bridge: Simplex & Mic Lez (Sample)] From weed to calm my nerves, to beer to drown our sorrow (Your memory grows stronger by the days of tomorrow) Until infinity, in our hearts is where you'll be (We are bounded by the sorrow but your spirit lives inside me) Gate crashing parties, freestyles and drunken sessions (And I'll always let you be the one progressing through [?]) Overcoming aggressions with tough times and facing life (The night inside I died was the night the heavens cried) [Turntablism by DJ Dyems] [Outro:] Now my brother that night, the love if left behind Left behind Forever his memory engraved in our heart and in our minds In our minds 'Cause I spent all my years to do this And I thank you, I'm thanking you And I will always feel the strength from you In everything that I go through 'Cause I love you, yeah, yeah I love you Yeah, I love you... (Rest in Peace)
