The childhood part of my life wasn't very pretty

You see I was born and raised in the slums of the city

It was a one room shack we slept in

Other children beside me

We hardly had enough food or room to sleep

It was a hard times

Needed something to ease my troubled mind

Ooo listen

My father didn't know the meaning of work

He disrespected Mama and treated us like dirt

I left home seeking a job that I never did find

Depressed and down hearted I took to Cloud 9

I'm doing(fine)

Up here(On cloud nine)

Listen one more time

I'm doing(fine)

Up here(On cloud nine)

Folks now they tell me

They say

Give yourself a chance and don't let life pass you by

But the world around you is a rat race

Where only the strong survive

It's a dog-eat-dog world and that ain't no lie

(Ain't no lie)

Listen it ain't even safe no more

To walk the streets at night

Let me tell you about Cloud 9

(Cloud 9)You can be what you wanna be

(Cloud 9)You ain't got no responsibility

(Cloud 9)Every man every man is free

(Cloud 9)You're a million miles from reality

(Reality) I'm gonna sail(up up)higher

(Up up up up and away)Cloud 9

I wanna say I love the life I live

And I'm gonna live the life I love

Up here on Cloud 9

Uh uh uh uh uh I'm riding high on Cloud 9

You're as free as a bird in flight

(Cloud 9)There's no diff'rence between day and night

(Cloud 9)It's a world of love and harmony

(Cloud 9)You're a million miles from reality

I'm gonna sail (up up) higher

(Up up up up and away)Cloud 9

You can be what you wanna be

(Cloud 9)You ain't got no responsibility

(Cloud 9)Every man in his mind is free

(Cloud 9)You're a million miles from reality

(Cloud 9)You can be what you wanna be

Boom boom boom boom boom
