Heaven

In these last days of time As the earth spins faster I often fantasize about life in the hereafter Paradise, the afterlife, land of the pleasant I dream of how my life will be when I get to heaven I don't embrace the taste of death But I don't fear it... Visions of heaven draw me near it Everlasting life in the spirit I obey the commandments, Universal laws I prophesized about heaven This is what I saw... I was placed in the land of milk and honey, fascination I was given powers beyond the average imagination But peep this, what I saw next left me speechless In heaven, everyone has the same level of uniqueness In heaven, there's no greed, no need for worldly things No diamond-studded rings, peasants become kings I don't know about you all But this is were I've got to live Where men and women don't have to be so provocative And live as true kings See it in the way we do things Intoxicate your minds without that gin and juice that Snoop brings By far in heaven the world is ours No more drugs, money and cars Just suns moons and stars Reunited in the universal family The man in me can't wait for heaven to fulfill my wildest fantasies As I search for better days and praise the number seven When I get to heaven... So fresh, (so fresh) So fly (so fly) I ride in paradise So fresh, (so fresh) So fly (so fly) I ride in paradise Once again it's the Last Emperor These lyrics won't leave you gassed In heaven I encounter famous spirits from the past I crack jokes with black folks Like Robin Harris and Red Fox Loungin' with Bob Marley, giving me tips on my dreadlocks To put it loosely, an angel will introduce me To all these famous people I'll learn kung fu from Bruce Lee The best rhymes on the best labels Doin shows with Scott LeRock and Prince Messiah on the tables Discussing politics with Mao Tse Dong and Malcolm By chance Queen Latifah's brother Lance will do production on my album Heavenly tracks with heavenly rhyming Jimmi Hendrix on guitar vocals by Phillis Hymen Yes in heaven my album will be a smash Generating cash, serving rappers like Arthur Ashe Flippin' uncensored free voice, I can rejoice Look over there its Heavy D's boy, Trouble T Roy!! He's kickin' dance steps with Sammy Davis Junior If I known heaven was gonna be like this I'da been here sooner Where heavenly emcees can be No robbery, no thievery... No police brutality for Eazy E And all our loved ones that passed away Take it from me, some day we can all be free like Donnie Hathaway I make the world feel my presence Until I'm called back to the essence When I get to heaven.... Chorus It's one for the physical It's two for the spirit Three for hip hop That makes ya heads bob when you hear it My mind's in heaven and I'm lovin' it No politicians, no government No democrats, no republicans And in the other men might create a civilization Where hip hop rules The Emp the Raw rocks the nation There's no stress in heaven we all relax And real lyricists sign record contracts Not these gun toting, blunt smoking Cross over acts, lying on wax Claiming they drop facts Imagine possibly no animosity Or malice, where your home is a palace Sippin' wine from a golden chalice Just loungin' and living lovely No one above me, the very thought of it drugs me Just like this track does me In heaven people live their lives how they happen to live 'em No longer trapped in a prison None of this capitalism, no need to boast squad Even try to pose high, just give thanks and praise to the most high And maybe we can all make it And take it right back to the essence When I get to heaven...
