It's in a place with no racial barriers And we all ride high in chariots Where love means love When we all have the finer things So we don't gotta buy 'em diamond rings Just to marry us
Instead I'm where they livin' for bling As people manage to sing Over the material things Where hip hop it's no longer just a lyrical thing Tell me God where did I go wrong? This ain't (Where I belong)
It's in a place where bad souls never get in Instead I'm in Hell's kitchen It's sickenin' to my stomach I'm runnin' a 100 mile But still can't escape from it I pray you show me the light It's only right, these lonely nights I call on my momma to hold me tight Show me right from wrong This road I'm on, I passed my turn But please, don't allow me to crash and burn Just give me a chance, watch how fast I learn (Where I belong)
I'm tryna keep my head up to the sky 'Cuz I'm stuck in this life until I die Lord, stop me from being crucified as soon as I (Where I belong)
I'm tryna keep my head up to the sky 'Cuz I'm stuck in this life until I die Lord, stop me from being crucified as soon as I (Where I belong)
Is somewhere In someone's memory Where we're all friends and ain't no enemies And there ain't no one minute you're wrong Next minute you're gone, so I hope that By the end of this song, I am (Where I belong)
Where fathers don't leave when you're born And every page in the book ain't torn And everyday that you lookin', they gone And you wishin' they came You see I know I ain't from here I'm wishin' I had remained (Where I belong)
No followers, no leaders No burners and heaters No dimes, no divas, it's pure No cancer, AIDS, God leave us a cure No more violence No need for police to appear No schools to drop out No snitches to cop out No drugs to sell, meanin' no fiends to knock out I'm talkin' a perfect place where we all get along That's why I know That this ain't the place (Where I belong)
I'm tryna keep my head up to the sky 'Cuz I'm stuck in this life until I die Lord, stop me from being crucified as soon as I (Where I belong)
I'm tryna keep my head up to the sky 'Cuz I'm stuck in this life until I die Lord, stop me from being crucified as soon as I (Where I belong)
It's in a place where women don't trade money for *** So cops harass you in front of your steps Where taxes don't equal a half your check Where people give respect in order to have respect(No gold diggers) Tryna figure how much cash I get(No speed limits) So it won't matter how fast I went(Take the time to think) No decisions Is brash an' **** No alcohol so drunk ****** won't crash their whips (Where I belong)
The same place where Big and Pac's at The same place they buried hip hop back Right there Me and my mom reunite there Then it's off through the Pearly Gates To sit down in that white chair Ray Charles, Marvin Gaye Barry White dead Carry Mims Senior, Joanne Phnell right there I don't need money All I need is a mic there I can see it so clear, I'll be there in the light, yeah
I'm tryna keep my head up to the sky 'Cuz I'm stuck in this life until I die Lord, stop me from being crucified as soon as I (Where I belong)
I'm tryna keep my head up to the sky 'Cuz I'm stuck in this life until I die Lord, stop me from being crucified as soon as I (Where I belong)
