Help me, yeah, get the keys to the kingdom
Help me, yeah, get the keys to the kingdom
Second row of the church with my hood on
My homie used to rap, he was about to get put on
At his funeral, listening to this church song
His family yelling and screaming, I heard form
A cold world, that's why we pack heaters
Listening to this preacher, as he trying to reach us
I'ma need to go back, I gots to get em
Back and forth in these streets, that's the rhythm
Revenge is supposed to be the laws, but I use my own accord
When I seen em on the porch, cost my man his life
I can't afford not to hit em, shots ripping through his true religion
Denim, these streets is my religion
I stood over him, his life is over then
Now these keys got me locked up with old demand
Thought these was the keys for me to roll the bins
They ended up being the keys for my life to end
Don't leave yet, get the keys
To the kingdom
Ooh, ooh
See
Don't leave yet, get the keys
To the kingdom
Yeah
Ooh, ooh
And the streets say
So walk in
And the people say
I want
And we all sing
Wow,
Wow,
And the streets say
So walk in
And the people say, and we all say
My money ain't straight, my fam ain't straight
Ain't wanna push keys, heaven couldn't wait
I was hurt and couldn't get no work
You created me from dust, that's why I did dirt
You said that the last shall be first
Now I'm in a hearse, what's this cash really worth?
My whole life I had to worry about eating
I ain't had time to think about what I believe in
When the days of the kingdom of Chicago will come
I'm coming back like the prodigal son
And I got a son, and I don't want my ways following him
The streets swallowing him, and I don't want no hollows in him
His mama say she see his father in him
Hope it's the good things, till life is over
It's when I understood things, standing at the gates
Cause I know you've forgiven what I've done
I'm your son, do I have the keys to get in?
Help me get, get the keys to the kingdom
Yeah
Oh
Yeah
Ooooooh
Help me get, get the keys to the kingdom
Yeah
Ooooooh
Sweet Lord Jesus, tell the police is to let it breathe
My sinning father see, gotta send me by the sea
See my trying to eat, eat whatever's on your plate
Save some for me, the worst things in life
Come sitting six feet, trying to obligate to heaven
Cause I can't, I can't, I can't
Couldn't get a key, but these **** play for keeps
And I gotta hold my own, trying to watch my back
Cause these stripes ain't free
Weak, still waiting in the water
Walk me and **** marinating in the water
Lena took a puff and then she gave it to my father
Used to take the bullets out so I can play with the revolver
Satan serenading ever since I was a time to tell him talk is cheap
Living for the diner, so a guy we trust
Lead a prayer to my mama though
Another **** guy out of control, just walking my soul
Roll litter with the abuse, they wasn't for show
I promise every pistol was used
See, I was waking up afraid to see my name on the news
Broad day, bad face, giving **** the blues
**** you, they know me on the streets where I grew
If you ain't from around here, you get gunned down here
Make the best from the least, on the quest for the keys to the kingdom
Help me just get the keys to the kingdom
**** you
Make the best from the least, on the quest for the keys to the kingdom
**** you
And the streets say
Oh yeah
And the people say
I don't care
And we all say
I don't care
And the streets say
Oh yeah
And the people say
I don't care
And we all say
I don't care
I don't care
Yeah
I return to Unloving
I don't care
I return to Unloving
This world is on my mind
And we all say
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah
And the streets say
And the people say
And we all say
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah
Help me get, get the keys to the kingdom
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
The keys to the kingdom
Yeah
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh fast
And the streets say
Oh, yeah
And the people say
My Lord
And we all say
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah
And the streets say
Oh, yeah
And the people say
My Lord
And we all say
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah
