Real Prophecy - A Better Place lyrics

[Intro: Real Prophecy] Aye I mean...... I want to be in a better place you know what I'm saying.... (Dolphins..... Rainbows) Naw I'm not saying it has to be heaven or nothing but that would be nice (Beautiful skies.. Peace) but can I be in a better place? [Hook 1: Real Prophecy] Will I see a better place? Better place oh yeah (And I wonder will I....) Will I see a better place? Better place oh yeah (And I wonder will I....) Will I see a better place? Better place oh yeah And I wonder will I ever see a better place) Will I see a better place? Better place oh yeah [Verse 1: Real Prophecy] I'm done dreaming, woke up the sun beaming; sun screen on my skin to block the darkness It's hot on this block to start with Working a 9-5 to survive, am I worthy? Like the wise bird he arise early as 5:30 That's Real Prophecy if you wondering who it is I'm concerned how my future is in the music biz Nightmares from dreaming in the evening sleeping Demons fiendin' for human beings, scheming; it's in a deeper meaning To have our minds redesigned; entertainers agree to sign but don't pay attention or read between the lines Ain't a puppet but I bet I blow, you could tell I know it's straight to hell I go if I sell my soul Never that, there's a better place reserved for me And will I get to change the world before I turn 40 But if I don't I hope I set the pace, peace among every race Now that's what I call a better place [Hook 2: Real Prophecy] Repeat [Verse 2: Real Prophecy] Hey what can I gain? Is it to obtain the fortune and fame? Feel the pain; my ancestors blood course through my veins What a shame, these slaves worked decades without shade Nowadays could you really say you deserve to get paid? Ain't what it needs to be, you got the decency not to agree with me People be greedy, I was a needy; they wouldn't feed me He be praying Amen at 3am Cuz he ain't in a state pen with 3 gay men causing mayhem Prison ain't the place for a person to live And television don't make it seem as worse as it is The way my rhymes are you could put my notebook in front of me That'll be the only way I'd be behind bars Dodging the system, women are held victim to the misogynist When they deserve to be treated like goddesses I swear to Christ this world is full of parasites I wonder do I have to be in heaven to live in paradise? [Hook 3: Real Prophecy] Repeat
