Da Truth - Misconceptions lyrics

In the Hip-Hop culture Everybody believes in heaven By in large, nobody goes to hell Biggie said, "When I die I wanna go to hell because I'm a piece a mess And it ain't hard to tell I don't wanna go to heaven with the goodies Man, I wanna go to hell with the dudes in black hoodies" For the money and the power Why would he? I don't know Why put him in the place that he said he ain't wanna go? Ain't no promise for tomorrow Lord have mercy on my soul Man, we sick of blowing smoke Man, we Christians, we ain't politicians So, naturally, they got a problem with it Hate to be the bearer of the bad news Just like I said this ain't my opinion Let's take the murder in the Beatles story They shot John Lennon, died prematurely Every heart will bear for these loved ones They shot him dead before he reached his forties He wrote a note,"Oh, is Jesus for me?" I just wanna know if God is real It's a quote and it's been reported "if He is then I want out of hell" It's such a shame when it gets distorted Yeah, we talking about loving bail It's such a shame that he departed I pray we never change if it's out of fear All these misconceptions Headed my direction Looking for an answer Which way do I go? All my imperfections Can we find an answer? Which way do I go? Man, they got us running scared Gotta talk it rapid and it's so unfair I thought America was land of the free Can't talk about it in the public square Keep it to yourself like a private eye Nobody talk about it till it's homicide They only seem to talk about his love Nobody talked about the other side I'm not a judge, only God is I can not pretend to know where Pac is I can not pretend to where Powe went All I know is d**h is like a pop quiz Where do I go when I finish here? What if I repent and say the sinner's prayer? What happens when I disappear? How can the love of God send us there? All these misconceptions Headed my direction Looking for an answer Which way do I go? All my imperfections Can we find an answer? Which way do I go? [Dr. Ravi Zacharias:] I will tell you this, Emmanuel If I did not believe in the reality of hell I don't think I would be in this ministry It is not just the longing for heaven It is the legitimate shunning Of pain which is what hell to me is The absence of God and it's not an after say to say it's happening in this world What happened to Hitler in this world? What happens to many in this There are murderers running free today about whom we know nothing And they'll never get caught They are quite happy to be doing all of the crime Why not go and have a shootout after a funeral if there is no hell? But, on the other hand, if I'm told by mother, "Don't put your hand into that flame. It will burn." It's a natural law at work There is a spiritual law at work too You determine to live apart from God And you will spend your eternity precisely that way I'm afraid that we've gotten soft God is not a villain that the muscles bought What about the people that are never hurt? All I know is everybody saw the cannibal All I know, he's a judge and he judges right It's what I told em' all on the other night If you believe that you can break the law you can go to jail When you breaking the law of heaven You can go to hell Dang
