[Hook] And up to God I'm saying thanks for the day But sometimes life is harder wish you take me away Cuz hey, it's a cold world, all I'm thinking of is where it's nice Where it's right, tryna take a flight to paradise [Verse 1] Yeah, up at the sky is where I stare at night Gazing at the stars, they hella far, but I ain't scared of heights Hella high in Fahrenheit They tellin me I need a reverent Wondering if paradise exists If I believe in heaven Times just like we're living in hell And so at times I wanna pack my bags and bid it farewell Plus, some night I can't sleep Why? Man I got these demons Plot and scheming on my soul They tryna stop my dreaming And turn em all into night mares, It's quite clear That they ain't gon be happy unless I can't enjoy my life here Damn, and half the world is surely confused Yea some bull sh** every day soon as you turn on the news Plus the coldest part is this, I doubt that we've been through the worst The truth that hurts, it's time to put some good out to the universe Before we lose the church Might be failing either way Half us say to keep on pushing Half us say I need to pray [Hook] (x2) And up to God I'm saying thanks for the day But sometimes life is harder wish you take me away Cuz hey, it's a cold world, all I'm thinking of is where it's nice Where it's right, tryna take a flight to paradise [Verse 2] Yeah, to a place where everything is perfect Ain't no bullsh** involved, ain't nothing there that's worthless I barely scratched the surface with the bars on this record But I'mma tell you about the place real quick now, check it Ain't no beefing going on no need for no grudge Yea I'm just chillen feeling good with all the people I love And they can rollin up a fat one and throw on back a few shots Shoot the sh** with miles davis, conversate with 2Pac Anything that's bad up in this life, there it don't exist Ain't nobody getting merked, ain't nobody broke as sh** Ya ain't real your over with, no tolerance for fake people If you're cool it's all good, ????????????? Nah, and ain't nobody living in pain I hate to see it on the surf for brother sh** is a shame Simple and plain, all the wackness is what I'm tryna cleanse Times I wish I had a spaceship, get my a** up outta here [Hook] (x2) And up to God I'm saying thanks for the day But sometimes life is harder wish you take me away Cuz hey, it's a cold world, all I'm thinking of is where it's nice Where it's right, tryna take a flight to paradise
