[Intro:] |
|
They say everything you go through in life makes life worth living |
|
But if the world should end tomorrow... |
|
I often think about that sometimes, know what I'm saying? |
|
[Verse 1:] |
|
I'll take the pain and the strife |
|
I know it's not in vain |
|
And struggle relate to everything in this life |
|
I'm maintaining became a beam of light for the youth in the streets |
|
Intertwining with goons never complaining cause it's all written |
|
Don't be bitter we all sinners |
|
Lusting for the good life, some hearts cold as December |
|
Hiding behind stripes and stars Father forgive um |
|
Earth out of her mind look what she had to witness |
|
I talk to her at times she tell me what's on her heart |
|
I tell her what's on my mind |
|
Momma where do I start? |
|
Why everybody divided? |
|
Why people afraid to die? |
|
She told me "talk to ya Father, he's in the sky." |
|
[Verse 2:] |
|
Father why everybody complaining bout what they got? |
|
Ungrateful, they don't see what you gave um? |
|
Make a lump sum of money start to thinking they made it |
|
He said if you pay attention to the weather I'm jaded |
|
It could be mid July and I feel like raining |
|
Any day of the year I shed a tear Poppa amazing |
|
One drop could flood the block there's no one greater |
|
And that's why I live in the sky |
|
No lie, I'm fly, defy gravity, I reply damn |
|
It's like you only show yourself to the wise |
|
I know why you won't let me come home |
|
Left me here on my own cause I ain't doing my job so you just letting me roam |
|
He responded "correct" go home to my mom I'm vexed |
|
She the reason for my drama and stress, you seem to love her |
|
Remember though, she the present but I'm forever |
|
Won't be long till you see us together I replied until than... |
|
[Chorus:] |
|
Now if the world should end tomorrow, Lord have mercy on me |
|
And if the sky should fall and the walls come tumbling down, tumbling down |
|
Now if the world should end tomorrow, Lord have mercy on me |
|
And if the sky should fall and the walls come tumbling down, tumbling down |
|
Than that's what it's gonna be |
|
Than that's what it's gonna be |
