[Intro: Scarface]

There's gonna be some shit you might not understand, but

You might have to rewind this shit a few times

Heaven... Heaven...

Check it out


[Verse 1: Scarface]

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 crying

I'm aware that when my number's called, I'm punching the clock

No need for screaming at me, momma, I'm out

And plus I wasn't really happy here to start with, let that be told

My own homeboy was robbing me, and that's 3 cold

I said '3', it's all intentional, 'cause 2 don't count

When your own blood is bitter and your homeboys bounce

Who the fuck is you gonna trust when your road dog is scheming

And every other corner, you're passing a different demon?

And now the clouds is open, I'm remembering this

Your family's your backbone, your friends ain't shit

Now I believe in what Rhonda was saying back in the days

When our homeboys left, she the only one stayed

For that very reason, I'ma try and give her the world

Found Heaven in the form of a girl, everybody's saying


[Chorus: Kelly Price]

My angel, my sunshine

That's the day that I found Heaven in the form of a girl

My best friend, my good time

That's the day that I found Heaven in the form of a girl

[Verse 2: Scarface, The Dramatics sample]

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 shit's ain't no song

I'm hearing niggas makin' up scriptures, and playing along

Probably saying 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 head down, boy

When you're aware of your surroundings, yet you still can't move

Water shooting outta 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

Gon' change your life when you hear it

And the next morn', you wake up and the world look lighter

The grass greener, and the sun brighter

I know the feeling first hand, I've 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

Hopefully he gonna let me stay on His list

I'm tryna get to "Heaven..."

[Verse 3: Scarface, The Dramatics sample]

America the Beautiful, don't be so cold

How do you expecting our seeds gon' grow

When you trap us in the ghetto

And show love, to the other motherfuckers

While we right here starvin' at home?

I'd cry if I thought that me sheddin' a tear might help

Then again, me sheddin' tears don't help

Wanna call up to the President, just to see if he no help

Let him know, "You up shit creek yourself," we all sinners

Facin' the winter, with no socks, and no shoes

In a position where we all gon' lose

Instead of penitentiaries, we gon' need more schools

Or what the fuck is we gonna 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 "Heaven..."
