[Intro]
Uh
Yeah

[Chorus]
I gotta make it to Heaven for going through Hell
I gotta make it to Heaven, I gotta make it to Heaven
I gotta make it to Heaven for going through Hell
I gotta make it to Heaven, I hope I make it to Heaven

[Verse 1]
Some say I'm paranoid, I say I'm careful how I choose my friends
I been to ICU once, I ain't going again
First Z got murked, then Roy got murked
And homie still in the hood, why he ain't getting hurt?
I smell somethin' fishy, man, it might be a rat
Damn, n***as switching sides on n***as just like that
You know me, I stay with a bitch on her knees
And give guns away in the hood like it's government cheese
Spray off Suzukis, eleven hundred CC's
No plate on the back, straight squeezing the MAC
In the hood, they identify n***as by they cars
So I switch up whips to stay off the radar
I ain't gotta be around to make shit hot
I'll send Yayo to dump thirty shots on your block
You should spray that TEC, n***a, if I say, get it done
I'll make you wet n***as if you 'round me, son
[Chorus]
I gotta make it to Heaven for going through Hell
I gotta make it to Heaven, I gotta make it to Heaven
I gotta make it to Heaven for going through Hell
I gotta make it to Heaven, I hope I make it to Heaven
I gotta make it to Heaven for going through Hell
I gotta make it to Heaven, I gotta make it to Heaven
I gotta make it to Heaven for going through Hell
I gotta make it to Heaven, I hope I make it to Heaven

[Verse 2]
When I come through the hood, I don't stop to rap to n***as (Yeah)
Get close enough to smack ya, then clap ya, n***a
Pop tried to front, so I waved the chrome on his ass
Point-blank range, I spazzed, pulled a bone on his ass (Woo)
Two weeks later, n***as came through with MACs to lay me down
They sprayed, I played dead and got the fuck off the ground
Out the blue, I get a phone call, "50, what up?"
"They sent a bitch at me, I sent the bitch back cut up"
I don't play that pussy shit, I done told you, boy
Front on me, you gon' meet one of my soldiers, boy
Cousin Twin shot up his mama crib, now he in jail
Tripping off flicks of Blu Cantrell, pussy, and black tail
Pop mama moved, but she don't talk to him no more
The shells from Twin's four-four blew the hinge off her door
Without that check every month, how she gon' pay for the crib?
Man, social service finna come and take them kids
[Chorus]
I gotta make it to Heaven for going through Hell
I gotta make it to Heaven, I gotta make it to Heaven
I gotta make it to Heaven for going through Hell
I gotta make it to Heaven, I hope I make it to Heaven
I gotta make it to Heaven for going through Hell
I gotta make it to Heaven, I gotta make it to Heaven
I gotta make it to Heaven for going through Hell
I gotta make it to Heaven, I hope I make it to Heaven

[Verse 3]
Lord, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change
The courage to change the things I can, the wisdom to know the difference (Yeah)
In AA, they make you say that
That's the prayer they burn in your head when you in CASAT (Woo)
Man, I might talk to you while we up in them pens (Uh-huh)
But when we come home, that don't mean we gon' fucking be friends
The shells pass your head close enough to hear 'em whistle
Thank God they missed you and go grab your pistol
In the hood, n***as running 'round acting crazy (Uh-huh)
Buying little Air Jordans for maybe babies
See, it might be his and it might be yours
'Cause them broads in the projects is straight up whores (Haha)
Man, it don't take much for you to get in them drawers (Uh-huh)
You can have 'em on they back or on all fours
You ain't got to tell me you feeling this shit
'Cause I hear what I'm saying, I know I'm killing this shit
[Chorus]
I gotta make it to Heaven for going through Hell
I gotta make it to Heaven, I gotta make it to Heaven
I gotta make it to Heaven for going through Hell
I gotta make it to Heaven, I hope I make it to Heaven
I gotta make it to Heaven for going through Hell
I gotta make it to Heaven, I gotta make it to Heaven
I gotta make it to Heaven for going through Hell
I gotta make it to Heaven, I hope I make it to Heaven
