HEAVEN
INTRO
THIS GOIN TO BE SOME SHIT YOU MIGHT NOT UNDERSTAND
BUT YOU MIGHT HAVE TO REWIND THIS SHIT A FEW TIMES
HEAVEN, HEAVEN, CHECK IT OUT

VERSE1
I KNOW TOMORROW AIN’T A PROMISE
THAT’S WHY I LIVE ONE DAY AT A TIME
SO WHEN IT’S MY TURN THERE’LL BE NO CRYIN’
I’M AWARE THAT WHEN MY NUMBER’S CALLED, I’M PUNCHIN’ THE CLOCK
NO NEED FOR SCREAMIN AT ME MAMA, I’M OUT
PLUS I WASN’T REALLY HAPPY HERE TO START WITH, LET THAT BE TOLD
MY OWN HOMEBOY WAS ROBBIN’ ME, AND THAT’S THREE COLD
I SAID THREE, IT’S ALL INTENTIONAL, ‘CAUSE TWO DON’T COUNT
WHEN YOUR OWN BLOOD BITTER AND YOUR HOMEBOYS BOUNCE
WHO THE FUCK IS YOU GON’ TRUST, WHEN YOUR ROAD DOGS IS SCHEMIN’
AND EVERY OTHER CORNER YOU PASSIN’ A DIFFERENT DEMON
AND NOW THE CLOSET’S OPEN, I’M REMEMBERIN’ THIS
YOUR FAMILY IS YOUR BACKBONES, YOUR FRIENDS AIN’T SHIT
NOW I’M BELIEVIN’ WHAT RHONDA WAS SAYIN’ BACK IN THE DAYS
WHEN THE HOMEBOYS LEFT, SHE THE ONLY ONE STAYED
FOR THAT VERY REASON, I’MA TRY TO GIVE HER THE WORLD
I FOUND HEAVEN IN THE FORM OF A GIRL
WITH EVERYBODY SAYING

CHORUS
MY ANGEL, MY SUNSHINE,
BLESS THE DAY THAT I FOUND HEAVEN IN THE FORM OF A GIRL
MY BEST FRIEND, MY GOOD TIME,
BLESS THE DAY THAT I FOUND HEAVEN IN THE FORM OF A GIRL

VERSE2
I SIT AND LISTEN TO DIFFERENT SCRIPTURES THEY TEACH ON GOD
AND IF YOU AIN’T NEVER MET HIM, DON’T SPEAK ON GOD
I’M SERIOUS ABOUT RELIGION, THIS JUST AIN’T NO SONG
I’M HEARIN’ NIGGAZ MAKIN’ UP SCRIPTURES AND PLAYIN’ ALONG
THEY PROBABLY SAYIN’ I’M THE HYPOCRITE FOR JUDGING THESE FOLKS
BUT YOU CAN TELL HE AIN’T A CHRISTIAN BY THE WAY THAT HE SPOKE
I PRAY FOR EVERYBODY, HOPING THAT THEY HEAR THAT VOICE
THE ONE THAT PARALYZES YOU FROM YOUR HEAD DOWN, BOY
WHEN YOU AWARE OF YOUR SURROUNDINGS, YET YOU STILL CAN’T MOVE
WATER SHOOTING OUT OF YOUR EYES WHEN YOU HEAR THIS DUDE
AND THE VOICE IS MUCH LOUDER THAN THE VOICE THAT YOU THOUGHT WAS THE VOICE OF THE HOLY SPIRIT
IT’LL CHANGE YOUR LIFE WHEN YOU HEAR IT
AND THE NEXT MORNING YOU WAKE UP AND THE WORLD LOOK LIGHTER
AND THE GRASS GREENER, AND THE SUN BRIGHTER
I KNOW THE FEELING, FIRST HAND I WITNESSED THE SIGHTS
WHEN I ALLOWED THE LORD TO COME IN MY LIFE
AND IT WAS LIKE “HEAVEN”
BUT I’M A MAN, I AIN’T PERFECT
THAT’S A POOR EXCUSE THAT AIN’T WORKING
I ASK HIM FOR FORGIVENESS FOR EVERY SIN I COMMIT
HOPING HE GON’ LET ME STAY ON HIS LIST
TRYIN’ TO GET TO
CHORUS2
HEAVEN, HEAVEN
HEAVEN, HEAVEN

VERSE3
AMERICA THE BEAUTIFUL, DON’T BE SO COLD
HOW YOU EXPECTIN’ OUR SEEDS GON’ GROW
WHEN YOU TRAP US IN THE GUTTER
AND SHOW LOVE TO THE OTHER MOTHERFUCKERS,
WHILE WE RIGHT HERE STARVIN’ AT HOME
I’D CRY IF I THOUGHT THAT ME SHEDDING A TEAR MIGHT HELP
BUT THEN AGAIN ME SHEDDING TEARS DON’T HELP
I WANT TO CALL UP TO THE PRESIDENT JUST TO SEE IF HE KNOWS HELL
AND LET HIM KNOW YOU UP SHIT CREEK YOURSELF
WE ALL SINNERS, FACIN’ A WINTER
WITH NO SOCKS AND NO SHOES
IN A POSTION WHERE WE ALL GOIN’ TO LOSE
INSTEAD OF PENITENTIARIES, WE GOIN’ TO NEED MORE SCHOOLS
AND WHAT THE FUCK IS WE GON’ DO
SIT AROUND AND LET THE WORLD PASS US BY
WAITIN’ ON A MESSAGE FROM THE REVEREND
AND HE AIN’T BUT ANOTHER MAN TRYIN’ TO GET TO

CHORUS
HEAVEN, HEAVEN
