Heaven

Текст песни ICE CUBE - Heaven <br/> Verse one:<br /><br />Listen to the preacherman<br />But are you talkin’ to me<br />I can’t hear you with a mouth full of pig’s feet<br />If I should need the swine flesh<br />Your body is a mess, but you’re blessed<br />With a father, son, spirit and the holy ghost<br />( )<br />But my whole neigborhood is comatose<br />Lookin’ for survival<br />The devil made you a slave and he gave you a bible<br />400 years gettin’ our ass kicked<br />By so-called christians and catholics<br />But I watch ’em burn in a fire<br />See I’m a g, that’s why I ain’t in your choir<br />Cause I see, cause I know<br />The church ain’t nothin’ but a fashion show<br />Get the devil to a 187<br />And they won’t call me a nigga when I get to heaven<br /><br />Verse two:<br /><br />You’re waitin’ for the devil to come from the ground<br />Clown, take a look around<br />Just look at the cross that the priest is holdin’<br />A beast in sheep’s clothing<br />But I’m rollin’ with that knowledge of self<br />Cause heaven ain’t just wealth<br />So mister preacher, if I couldn’t pay my tithe<br />Do I have to wait outside? <br />White man, please take another look<br />Cause we couldn’t be readin’ out of the same book<br />Cause youse a crook and I’m a brother<br />King james had sex with his mother<br />Is that your edition? is that your religion? <br />Black man, you gotta make a desicion<br />Cause God is comin’ on day number seven<br />And he won’t call me a nigga when I get to heaven<br /><br />Verse three:<br /><br />The same white man that threw me in the slammer<br />He bombed the church in alabama<br />So if I cock the hammer, God won’t mind<br />If I have to kill the human swine<br />Cause God is a killer from the start<br />Why you think noah had to build his ark<br />And God is a man from his feet to his hair<br />That’s why you say ’amen’ after each and every prayer<br />I just stare at the church man<br />Spendin’ more money on the church band<br />But elijah’s got a plan<br />Got the white man screamin’: ’damn that farrakhan!’<br />Cause one day these babies are uprise<br />Much more than bowties and bean pies<br />Kickin’ knowledge at 7-11<br />And they won’t call me a nigga when I get to heaven
