[Intro: Kendrick Lamar]
How confident am I when I scream up?
My heart tell a lie, today, I said, "I love you"
In too deep, I think we might want the world back
Mixin' the drugs and emotions all in a huddle
Time will tell if I can make my own Heaven
Wish me well, I'm blockin' my own blessin'
I excel if I can have true freedom
Cast a spell for the new world and bleed 'em
[Verse 1: Kendrick Lamar]
Love to the women that made me
The jealousy's out of order, the green is paisley
Detroit got white water, the number forty-five's in another portal
The other forty-five's on safety
I couldn't judge you, only trust you, be yourself
I get offended that my intentions could never help
I thought about a life of makin' my own Heaven in the land where mad men respected
[Chorus: Bakar]
Let's pay attention to detail, 'cause I know we been wrong
Ain't no façade if we mean well, the truth is who we know
And now we can't go back home
And now we can't go back home
[Verse 2: Kendrick Lamar]
In my Heaven, we trade faces
A new world only the conversation
Ready or not, ain't no symptom contagious
Life in a box, ain't no man complacent
The ghetto has a voice that we all know
And Skid Row was clear for tomorrow
The johnnies got the fear out the way
The survivors redeemed havin' they heart broke, ay
Smoke good, eat good, live good
We make good with the promises we couldn't keep
Crack down on the shackles that you put me through
Now, I got more of patience
More confidence, humble, and bodacious
Pure dominance over my temptations
It's Heaven in mind, so, with that, my dreams get better with time
[Chorus: Bakar]
Let's pay attention to detail, 'cause I know we been wrong
Ain't no façade if we mean well, the truth is all we know
And now we can't go back home
And now we can't go back home
[Bridge 1: Kendrick Lamar]
I live for you, now, I die for you
I live for you, now, I die for you
I live for you, now, I die for you
I live for you, now, I die for you
I live for you, now, I die for you
I live for you, now, I die for you
I live for you, now, I die for you
I live for you, now, I die for you
(Only Heaven knows)
[Verse 3: Kendrick Lamar]
The disloyal don't get far, the fair prosper
The children writes all of the laws, the elders watch us
The better covenant for justice ain't monotonous
The shooters don't aim at each other but at the cosmics
The less compassionate will evolve from bein' blasphemous
Habitual haters, by law, go where the ashes went
I proceed to live out my own Heaven
Plant my seed before my flesh is destined
Imagine when Montessori schools bein' enthused by the culture
Killer Mike told you to listen to him, you got stronger
Learned life rather than learnin' how to follow order
Greet your family, generational wealth at the border
The pain is gone, the thinkers are now the gun smoke
Life is drawn from what you perform, not what you want
If I made my own Heaven, it'd probably be in the perfect song to get the message
[Bridge 2: Bakar]
It feels like Heaven is retail for me, therapy
I can't keep callin', collectin' receipts, pray for me
Just be free, find release, press delete
Let's retreat and be free
[Chorus: Bakar]
Let's pay attention to detail, 'cause I know we been wrong
Ain't no façade if we mean well, the truth is all we know
And now we can't go back home
And now we can't go back home
