Heaven

[Intro] [Sha Stimuli talking]: I wanna take y'all on a journey right quick. A lot of people talk about Heaven and Hell. I don't know [Verse One]: Look They say Heaven ain't hard to find, but I think it depends on who's lookin' They say Heaven might be all in my mind So it could be somewhere in Brooklyn 'Pac asked if there was a Heaven For A G I don't know the answer but I wonder in my sleep About all the killers and the dealers that I see For sellin' somebody death, is there a Heaven for me? Nas asked if it was a mile away Would you drive to it, walk to it, or would you stay? Right where you are, cause you might be afraid That paradise would change you, you'd never be the same Biggie said he never even wanted to go Too many goodie goodies, no weed, no hoes I just wanna know if I'm sinnin' on the low But it comes to the light when I'm done with my life is it over? [Chorus]: They say that heaven is A ten zillion light years away And just the pure of heart Will walk a righteous street someday [Verse Two]: Follow There's so many church goers in my family And one day we spoke about Christianity I thought they would all be pissed and mad at me When they heard my music, but I felt real stupid When they said I had a gift And I was bound to spread hope and guidance With my words, said I had the Holy Ghost inside me But it's gonna take time for my quotes to shine And have God's power, right now, I'm just close And on the real, I don't know if I believe That taking Christ as my savior will achieve This afterlife of greatness, he sacrificed for our needs And I thank him, but I just might wanna follow his lead And maybe that'll be my Heaven Tell the truth, I got serious in '97 B.I.G. passed and I thought about death And I thought about what I could leave after I left So I started writin' crazy and I did my best To live through my music after I'm out of breath That's why I hate sleepin', cause it's hard to accept The fact that we gotta die, my mind won't ever rest If I sell a million copies, will the gates fly open? If I'm in church every Sunday will that mean I'll be chosen? If I don't cheat, lie, steal Fornicate or murder will I get to live forever? If that's the case I'll be perfect Where's Heaven man? [Chorus]: They say that heaven is A ten zillion light years away And just the pure of heart Will walk a righteous street someday [Sha talking]: And then I start thinkin'. What if Heaven's on Earth? Follow me [Verse Three]: Look You give a homeless man a crib, a blind man vision A deaf dude wakin' up hearin', you gotta listen Take a single mother raisin' her kids, on her own And have her man change his life for his fam and come home Or a nice MC stayin' true to what he knows Then he finally, gets a deal and then he blows A crackhead rehabin', workin' again Ten year bid finished, first day out the pen' Or a young woman datin' thinkin' love is just pretend Years later she's all in it and married her best friend Doctors say she may never conceive It felt just like Heaven when she had her first seed Sorta like the opposite of Adam and Eve See, they ain't recognize Eden till they had to up and leave But you gotta open your eyes and really see Heaven might be right in front of you Stevie breathe on 'em man [Chorus]: They say that heaven is A ten zillion light years away And just the pure of heart Will walk a righteous street someday
