Lyrics
Phone rang, screen said "caller ID blocked"
But for some reason I decided to answer it
On the other end was a French accent
He told me we needed to rap quick
'Cause he had did some bad shit and would be gone for years
Spending these last two days with his momma and his kid
When he spoke, I wasn't trying to hear it
'Cause I knew he was a real good person
And this didn't seem like it was in his spirit
He couldn't believe as much as I couldn't what he had done
He said now it's time for him to turn himself in
For no longer could he run from life, from God
I started thinking, "Why is doing right so hard?"
I thought back to when we was in London discussing the New Testament
And how our lives related to it and how we could make the best of it
My voice became desperate, so I asked him, "Why you gotta go?"
He said, "You know, turn to Matthew 24"
He said, "No one knows the hour, nor do they know the day
But the kingdom is near, don't let anything lead you astray"
As long as God is with me, everything will be okay
So right about then, we decided to pray
Just lying back, making the smoke disperse away
Deep into clouds, it's making things appear to me so clearly
Deep in the clouds
Just lying back, making the smoke disperse away
Deep in the clouds
It's making things appear to me so clearly
Deep into clouds
Your time is a terrible thing to waste
For there's not one earthly possession that you can bring to space
It's a chance, but the chance of seeing it is quite a dream to chase
I hope I remind God of Him when He sees my face
And He will see it
Ever glowing, keeps on glowing
That feeling just keeps on
Lifting me higher
Ever glowing
And it's ever glowing
It's ever glowing
Ever glowing, keeps on glowing
When everything puts a smile on my face
Ever glowing, ever glowing
And I recognize the struggle
But I keep on going, I keep on going
I keep on going on
Almighty love, washing over me
A smile, brilliance
Constantly warm, comforting
Perfect like no thing
No haze, no confusion, no strain
Simply peace, simply, simply, simply
No fear, heaven is to me
No fear of destruction, no
Understanding who He is
His name is Christ
Heaven, heaven is to me
Wisdom, understanding, knowledge
Oh, understanding, yeah
Streets of gold and pearly gates
Halos, wings, all dressed in white
High, high
Angels singing, samples clear
No one's rich, no one's poor
High, high
People dreaming, living free
Making love while they're in love
High, high
Wonderful dream, wake me when you're home
High, high
Heaven, heaven is me and Pops
Heaven is spending the day with the grandchildren
Listening to their voices and laughter and play
And then at the end of the day
We hug, we kiss, and slowly they walk away
And then suddenly they turn and rush back to me
And hug me around the knees
Yeah, that's heaven to me
