[Chorus: Tobe Nwigwe]
I spoke to Yahweh, I've been meditatin'
He told me that Heaven's waitin', I told Him I'm hesitatin' on some things (On some things, Cory Mo)
He told me that Heaven's waitin', I told Him I'm hesitatin' on some things (On some things)
And I told Him I'm hesitatin' on some things (On some things)
And I told Him I'm hesitatin' on some things
I spoke to Yahweh, I've been meditatin'
He told me that Heaven's waitin', I told Him I'm hesitatin' on some things
[Verse 1: Bun B]
Lately I've been puttin' my life into perspective
Reflective of my past, bеin' retrospective
Lookin' at thе good and the bad and my early days
Wonderin' if I still got a path to the pearly gates
Life wasn't always the way that it is today
It used to take me damn near losin' my life just to pray
But nowadays, I'm more conscious of my ways
And all it take is me wakin' up to give Him praise
Came a long way from who I was and what I did once
All I used to care about was sippin' drink and big blunts
But now I got a family and they countin' on me
To give 'em what they need, I'd climb the highest mountain, homie
So every day I'm workin' on the enemy
To find the best way that I could balance out my energy
Nobody's perfect, no matter what it look like on the surface
Just hopin' I get closer to my purpose, say amen
[Chorus: Tobe Nwigwe & Talib Kweli]
I spoke to Yahweh, I've been meditatin'
He told me that Heaven's waitin', I told Him I'm hesitatin' on some things (On some things)
He told me that Heaven's waitin', I told Him I'm hesitatin' on some things (On some things)
And I told Him I'm hesitatin' on some things (On some things, yeah)
And I told Him I'm hesitatin' on some things (Yeah-yeah)
I spoke to Yahweh, I've been meditatin' (Turn me up a lil' bit, yeah)
He told me that Heaven's waitin', I told Him I'm hesitatin' on some things
[Verse 2: Talib Kweli]
I'm on a course switchin' over to God, I got the devil waitin'
I'm outlastin' 'em, outcast and I'm elevatin'
Keymaster lookin' for keepers of Heaven's gate
He faster to beat, them others hesitate
Here's the sitch, you know them snitches be sayin' some things
Actin' like a broadway play, Mama, I Want to Sing!
Just because I'm from the 'hood don't mean I gotta bang
Our neighborhood affiliated, the police a gang
They say my name, but say it soft, like under they breath
We mutilated like people livin' under the steps
We stayin' pressed, there'll be none of us left
The food desert got 'em thirsty for blood, hungry for death
They give us scraps from the feast, we actin' like we amazed
Treat Blacks like beasts and lock us right in a cage
Every day I fight for freedom 'cause it's not just a phase
I'm not your slave, you don't get to tell me how to behave, nah
[Chorus: Tobe Nwigwe & David Banner]
I spoke to Yahweh, I've been meditatin'
He told me that Heaven's waitin', I told Him I'm hesitatin' on some things (On some things)
He told me that Heaven's waitin', I told Him I'm hesitatin' on some things (On some things)
And I told Him I'm hesitatin' on some things (On some things)
And I told Him I'm hesitatin' on some things
I spoke to Yahweh, I've been meditatin' (Yeah, yeah)
He told me that Heaven's waitin', I told Him I'm hesitatin' on some things
[Verse 3: David Banner]
I'm like Nelly with a Visa, you only show me off at nighttime
But fight time is what it is, ****, 'cause I hit killer kids
What y'all want? Pray wit' 'em and stay wit' 'em
Build back up to slave quarters to stay wit' 'em, yeah
Wasn't slavery in the name of the crops?
They come knockin' at my door, and watch, I'm runnin' 'em off
We were fine before they put Hell in our mind
And died seven times then found I could travel through time
Through my ancestors, no more, no lesser
Ain't no tithe or no fee, God wanna be free, yeah
But y'all pimpin' religion, pushin' division, cool (Yeah)
I want my family, back forty, you can keep the mule (Yeah)
I'ma keep a tool, bustin' back at you (Back at you)
Call me Mahmoud Abdul-Rauf (Yeah)
He a Mississippi shooter, y'all don't get it, though (Though)
Y'all talkin' God, do you really live it, though? (Live it, though)
[Chorus: Tobe Nwigwe]
I spoke to Yahweh, I've been meditatin'
He told me that Heaven's waitin', I told Him I'm hesitatin' on some things (On some things)
He told me that Heaven's waitin', I told Him I'm hesitatin' on some things (On some things)
And I told Him I'm hesitatin' on some things (On some things)
And I told Him I'm hesitatin' on some things
I spoke to Yahweh, I've been meditatin'
He told me that Heaven's waitin', I told Him I'm hesitatin' on some things
