Cut it up!
cut cut it, cut, cut, cut, cut it, cut it
cut, cut it, cut it up one time!
cut it up one time!
Hu, Heaven, hu,hu, huh heaven
Huh, Heavenbound!

Chorus:
Heavenbound, 
don't you know I'm heavenbound?
Heavenbound,
reaching for that higher ground.
Heavenbound,
don't you know I'm heavenbound?
Heavenbound,
reaching for that higher ground.

Cold rappin' for the king with a sting in my voice
Not condemnin' men and women, but relayin' a choice.
Higher ground is the sound that I'm talking of.
Opportunity knocks through a different love.
Not love like we know it, like ya love your girl.
It's a love from above, not of this world.
Kinda profound, a trump will sound;
and all God's children are heavenbound.

Repeat Chorus

Jump on the job, and live for him.
Do you lie satisfied in a state of sin
Listen while I christen a serious sound.
Rap cold revin' cause I'm heavenbound.
Serious lyrics don't disregard
No treason, gotta reason that I rap so hard.
Don't look down or stand around
But keep on reachin' for higher ground

Repeat Chorus

Call us the heavenbound crew and you can be, too.
If ya only knew what he did for you.
Christ died, don'tcha see, to set us free.
Look in the word, unblurred, you can find the key.
Gotta choice to be voiced, reveive him or not.
Like right or left, cold on the spot.
It seems kinda easy when ya break it down.
As for me and my boys, we're heavenbound.

If you want eternal life,
choose my friend, he's Jesus Christ.
Only he can set you free
from your sin and misery.
Ooh, God's promised us a home in glory.
Trust in him,
a trump will sound,
and all God's children are hea-hea-heavenbound.

Repeat Chorus

Don't look down, stand around
keep on reachin' for higher ground.
Kinda profound, a trump will sound,
and all God's children are  heavenbound!

Don't you know, don't, don't you know
I'm heavenbound, that I'm heavenbound?
Can't ya see, can't, can't ya see
that I'm heavenbound, I'm heavenbound?
Heavenbound
Don't you know I'm heavenbound?
HEAVENBOUND!
