[00:15.000] Artist: Mr. Serv-On f/ Master P, Silkk, Kenya Miller
[00:15.000] Album: Life Insurance
[00:15.000] Song: Heaven Is So Close
[00:15.000] Lord, have mercy (try to sleep) Heaven is so close
[00:15.000] (But with all this bloodshed and letdowns)
[00:15.000] When you born and die and live in the ghetto
[00:15.000] (Just won't let me sleep, but it's one thing)
[00:15.000] Heaven is so close (that's gotta smile on my face)
[00:15.000] When you born and die
[00:18.829] (Now I know heaven is so close, so close)
[00:20.290] And live in the ghetto (just listen to me)
[00:24.500]
[00:26.550] If murder is hereditary, then dyin young is my destiny
[00:26.766] f** doin time for felonies, the hell for what ya tellin me
[00:29.747] It's what I'm seein, believin it's a better side
[00:33.126] All I'm seein is my genocide, suicidal thoughts
[00:35.906] Brought my mamma broken hearts
[00:38.983] I threw a jack at n***as, and drinkin liquor
[00:40.848] To help me see God quicker
[00:42.904] All it did was have me mad to hear my daughter call me Mr
[00:45.008] Her mamma shoulda taught her better
[00:47.651] Now I'm writin Dear God letters
[00:49.416] Askin how my cousin went from makin hella Gs through the years
[00:51.461] To doin $30 hits and alcoholic tears
[00:54.900] Fears from these streets scared me
[00:57.752] I decided a long time ago, to let the Lord guide me
[01:00.350] Through this optimism, kids dyin, I don't know
[01:03.506] I guess I miss em, like lil James Darby
[01:06.123] And Lil Mann out the projects
[01:08.465] Never got to see they happy years, all they felt
[01:10.388] Was the blast from a lost tear, and last year
[01:12.989] The nation felt shame, but only they mothers felt the pain
[01:15.900] To hear the Lord call they name
[01:18.584] This game has got me feelin like I'm losin all my sanity
[01:20.188] At times I think the world is blamin me
[01:23.099] But I ain't lettin em get me down
[01:25.150] I'm keepin my head up cause I know I got a dosage
[01:27.174] Heaven is so close
[01:30.200] Chorus (2X): Heaven is so close
[01:31.117] (Now I lay me down to sleep)
[01:33.501] When you born and die and live in the ghetto
[01:34.206] (I pray the Lord my soul to keep)
[01:36.772] Heaven is so close
[01:37.090] (And if I should die before I wake)
[01:39.828] When you live and die and live in the ghetto
[01:40.150] (I pray the Lord my soul to take)
[01:43.425]
[01:47.224] Bill Clinton, you gon feel me
[01:53.724] Takin welfare from ghetto children
[01:55.303] That's why every hood infected and lookin blurry
[01:57.477] I mean every homie I know in the dope game
[02:00.299] We sell it, but who make c**aine?
[02:03.093] Artificial contaminated
[02:06.049] My little homie lost his life for rims that was gold plated
[02:08.397] 211 ain't nothin but robbery
[02:11.943] 187 ain't nothin but a hobby
[02:14.671] In the ghetto, d**h is like a ??? cheese
[02:17.538] I mean yo best friend turn into yo enemy
[02:20.616] Lord knows, I don't wanna die young
[02:23.262] Earth is hell, heaven is eternal sun
[02:26.482] Bury me a G, f** dyin poor
[02:29.405] The hood got me trapped, I'm a victim of this ghetto
[02:32.375] Mouth full of cooked rocks, standin on the block
[02:35.022] 100 Gs, two keys, runnin from crooked cops
[02:37.935] I done seen little kids lose they life
[02:40.968] I done seen n***as mammas smoke the pipe
[02:43.879] I done grew up with k**as, my brother died a drug dealer
[02:46.496] Like Spice 1 say, even young n***as
[02:50.260] Die in the ghetto
[02:53.222] You never know when it's yo time, or my time to go
[02:55.035] Chorus (2X) Silkk- Man, whattup dawg, I found out
[02:59.252] None of us can cheat d**h
[03:03.679] No point in ?fakin it out?
[03:05.879] See, I was born hustlin
[03:07.673] Ain't no way for us out here
[03:08.962] In the streets to get off
[03:11.197] But, uh, judgement comes for all of us
[03:13.824] And when it's yo time to go
[03:16.691] Can you go clear conscience?
[03:18.419]
[03:20.563] See they often told me heaven was close
[03:21.562] But I think it's even closer, look
[03:23.159] It ain't no fun to have yo name on wanted posters, look
[03:24.968] See I ain't got time for b**hes
[03:27.645] I keep my hand on my 9, and keep my mind on my riches
[03:29.818] It's a everyday struggle, everyday hustle
[03:33.087] Tryin to make bank
[03:35.325] I went to jail for a couple of months
[03:36.557] And I had some time to think
[03:37.708] See I really can't take it
[03:39.575] Everybody changed up at the last minute to go to heaven
[03:41.881] They ain't gon make it
[03:44.458] The government ain't got no love for none of us
[03:46.041] God, you gotta understand, just think if you was one of us
[03:48.072] I be forever ballin in my sleep
[03:51.021] Be countin, thinkin, of ways to get out, it's just too deep
[03:53.164] I seen so many things and wonder, "Why me?"
[03:56.860] I pray to God let my mom die before I
[03:59.504] She pray to God, "Don't let my son die before me"
[04:01.480] And I wonder, if it's low
[04:03.586] They say heaven is a million miles away
[04:05.248] But to Silkk it seem so close
[04:07.292]
[04:08.574] Heaven is so close when you born and die and live in the ghetto
[04:09.383] Heaven is so close when you born and die and live in the ghetto
[04:14.848] (yeah, you know what I'm sayin?)
[04:19.860] This goes out to all my dead homies out there
[04:22.000] (I know how it is up there, you know what I'm sayin?)
[04:22.899] You see what I'm sayin? (no red or blue, no black or white
[04:24.346] We all the same up there, fool) Sometimes they point the finger
[04:27.132] At us ghetto people (you know this go out to all my little dead
[04:30.543] Homies out there) Mr. Serv-On, Master P, Silkk the Shocker
[04:32.728] (P brother, Kevin Miller, slugged up) It ain't changed
[04:34.271] (You know lil Reg, Joshua Carter) Everybody need life insurance
[04:36.084] (Howard little brother, you know what I'm sayin? mistakes happen)
[04:38.672] You never know when it's gon be yo time to go
[04:41.870] (you know what I'm sayin, n***a, we with you)
[04:42.740] Cause if you live in the ghetto
[04:43.958] (And my cousin Randall, n***a, I'm gon always see you n***a)
[04:44.452] It's like you one step away from heaven
[04:46.781] (whether I'm dead or alive, my homie D. Fuller, n***a
[04:47.285] My homie Mouse, you know what I'm sayin, no matter how you went fool
[04:51.233] You still got love from me,it's gon be like to everybody
[04:54.860] That done lost somebody, whether it's your mother, your uncle
[04:57.870] Your sister, your brother, your child, it doesn't matter
[05:00.446] You know what I'm sayin, they all up there, it's gon be one big party
