Luyện nghe bài hát Where Was Heaven

* - a version is on The Swarm Vol. 1

This goes out to all my in the projects
Just it, still livin it
Thru the rough and the bad times,
the crimes, where was
Must be somewhere here, though, for
I never seen the
Maybe place you got when you die

An ordinary cat from projects, since I was younger though
Mom raised her children, pops dipped a long ago
In my mind I see flashbacks, I had no clothes
Skinny, ugly, knotty head nigga crying with a nose
Even my father neglect, he pay the child support
seen him all these years, I hug his ass in court
Always I'm comin to get you and I be waitin too
Holiday and birthday was never comin through
Remember at the age 13 I smokin weed
Hanging out with cats that was older, to run the street
Dropped out of school selling drugs, impressin chicks
Spent most my cheddar on gear, my man was whips
New York, Jamaican, Miami niggaz, flooded Virginia
Cause signin only if buying, prices was high as shit
when I first got hit, I seen the iron spit
50 cash in one corner bleeding where pellet hit
My man Shawn, he held on
burn through his lower back side, crack his spine exit his arm
Lost him twice on the hospital and when he died I cried my eyes out
I couldn't take it (damn damn), but the same things to happen
got bust, I'm a kid with a grown man's mind turning corrupt
Playing in front of my elders
I was running with them cats be robbing too, I couldn't tell 'em
If my name was up in any trouble, my moms would tell me
Just like you into some shit go get a job or something
a little bum on the street, not working hard for nothing
Scratch I when I was pumpin, I'm here to offer somethin
Making sure the crib stay tight, for I wasn't no dummy
Tell me where you getting this money, I wash a car be
anything 'sides drugs selling, my sister seen me on the block
Transact' fiends, be saying I'ma tell it
Growing up was no doubt, I wonder where was heaven

(women in the background)

Shit, it's yesterday, you know?
It all comes though, but still
But still livin on the block, but still up
You Crime affiliated, Crime Syndicate
Whatever you call it
You know I'm sayin? Affiliated with the bad shit
All the time just 'cause I'm a of the projects

Now I'm a grown man, still It's like dealt me the wrong hand
Cat's was my man be frontin' or either found dead
said incarcerated just turned a new Dad
Remembering them ten months from slingin crack bags
Mom put me out with the quickness, your black ass
I'm still coming back to the crib, oh so you yeah
Ma' I just came to holler to see how you
changed after all these years
Still hustle for some gear, smoke weed, still drink
I tell you my heart, yo, 'times I'm like yeah

(women start again)

I wonder if heaven was a place in this
find me right there.

was heaven.
