Closest Thing To Heaven Lyrics - Artist : Ghetts
You are, you are the closest thing to heaven (Yeah, you know what? I grow up so blessed)
You are, you are (Some people never had the parents around, I grew up with both) You are, you are the closest thing to heaven (My mum, we've been through hard times and always been there for me and you know) You are, you are (This is just a sign of respect) Dear margy, I hope that we never have to part ways Three kids and I'm giving you the most heartache So when I talk to my little bro I say to him "chill", how much more can mum's heart take? I recall Thorpe Park, [?] Trips we took Now I wish I never skipped the books I wanted a fast wage Even so, my last car chase But there ain't nothing like a mother's love I even swore, I was done with drugs And then you found out, I was still shotting class A Bunking school and telling it was half day I know I deserved every beating I got Same mistakes, I was repeating a lot At night, I could even hear when you was speaking to God I come home to smell weed on my top How can a son of a teacher be an underachiever But changes in a process? You are, you are the closest thing to heaven (Mum, I love you) You are, you are (I swear down from the bottom of my heart) You are, you are the closest thing to heaven (You're the reason I'm still on road) You are, you are (I'm still here) I did time and you never missed a visit You came to see me, even in the blizzard Even when I was up north, I told you not to bother (It's too far) But it's like say, you could read a son's thoughts Because deep down I missed you But I was flexing like it weren't an issue And when I rung home You could hear the pain my voice I'm in the block, mum I can't wait till I come home But time seems like it stopped, mum I don't even wanna think about release dates Because every time I see the gates I'm thinking of a sweet escape Even though I've done the crime Knowing the risk, I still wish I beat the case It was supposed to be a piece of cake Pissed I can't see your face I'm back home But how long can I keep it straight? I'm trying to keep clean Because I know you wanna keep me safe You are, you are the closest thing to heaven You are, you are (I swear down from the bottom of my heart, mum) You are, you are the closest thing to heaven (Look) You are, you are (Whole family, gonna make you proud) I'm your eldest son So I gotta my example now I used to play the man when my father's out Making booby traps to guard the house Now I'm older, I'm trying to build a large account Could you worked enough? Strong black woman wouldn't tremble if the Earth erupts Get back and turn the furnace up You deserve a break I'ma tell my little sister, serve a plate She can cook, she won't burn it up Look, I just wanna make you proud How does entertainment sound? I can tell nanny, felt happy when I changed around You're a queen, I won't let anybody take your crown Some could only wish on my mother like mine One in a million, there ain't another like mine I can only say I'm sorry for the pain I've inflicted When I set pace, am I meant to resist it? Now, you can check base on my face, you can witness You are, you are the closest thing to heaven You are, you are (I swear down from the bottom of my heart) (I know my singing's not enough) You are, you are the closest thing to heaven (The spotlight's on me now, mum) You are, you are (I'mma make the whole family proud) (Yeah) You're the closest thing to heaven in my world Never take this heaven from my arms Don't take your love from me or you'll take everything You're the closest thing to heaven that I've ever seen (I'm just dancing now, man) (I feel like I'm gonna cry) You are, you are the closest thing to heaven (22 years and counting) You are, you are (Aye, Merlin, magic) |
