Ask Heaven (Album Version) - Heavy D/Chico DeBarge[00:00:00]
I'd like to dedicate this song[00:00:01]
To everyone who's cried before[00:00:04]
Who's felt pain and suffering before[00:00:07]
This just ain't about me[00:00:10]
But most importantly[00:00:13]
I'd like to send this song out to my family[00:00:14]
I love my family[00:00:17]
'Specially my mother and my father[00:00:20]
I wanna thank you for being so strong[00:00:22]
God bless you I love you[00:00:26]
Sometimes I sit back relax[00:00:28]
Sip on Cognac reminscin[00:00:29]
On how it used to be when we were kids[00:00:31]
Laughin at the things that we did[00:00:33]
Damn near broke but we knew how to live[00:00:35]
Peep the scene[00:00:38]
Mom and dad bustin they a** 14 years[00:00:39]
In the night they would pass each other[00:00:42]
Tryin to raise six of us[00:00:44]
One sister four brothers[00:00:45]
Two deceased laid to rest[00:00:47]
And I miss you cats[00:00:49]
What I wouldn't give to bring you back[00:00:50]
To fill the void that you left in my heart[00:00:52]
Your last breath really tore me apart[00:00:54]
And I'm sorry[00:00:56]
If I never said I loved you enough[00:00:57]
I truly did[00:00:59]
Ask heaven heaven is there room for me[00:01:00]
Cause I believe[00:01:11]
That's where you'll be[00:01:13]
Waiting for me[00:01:16]
At the end of a stairway to heaven[00:01:18]
Aiyyo I swear to you[00:01:22]
I'll put it on the bible no lie[00:01:22]
On the days you guys died[00:01:24]
I seen daddy cried[00:01:25]
I was shocked[00:01:26]
Y'all know how tough pop is f'real[00:01:27]
But he really turned soft[00:01:29]
When life stopped his kids damn[00:01:30]
Speakin of kids Yours beautiful[00:01:32]
Promisin beautiful[00:01:34]
I wish you could see 'em[00:01:36]
So much of life[00:01:37]
With a touch of yo' light[00:01:38]
And I'm doin my best[00:01:40]
To make sure they alright[00:01:41]
When I was young[00:01:42]
Some big kids stole my bike[00:01:43]
Came home and told y'all[00:01:45]
And had it back that night[00:01:46]
When I was older you started smokin[00:01:48]
And you sold my bike[00:01:49]
I remember cause I cried all night[00:01:51]
I wasn't mad[00:01:52]
I was sad[00:01:53]
Cause the crack had control of your life[00:01:54]
And you couldn't even put up a fight[00:01:56]
You told me Dwight[00:01:57]
I promise lil' brother[00:01:58]
I'ma make it alright[00:02:00]
You left home[00:02:01]
And you died that night damn I miss you[00:02:02]
Ask heaven heaven is there room for me[00:02:04]
Cause I believe[00:02:15]
That's where you'll be[00:02:17]
Waiting for me[00:02:20]
At the end of a stairway to heaven[00:02:22]
Thanksgiving day came home[00:02:26]
Surprised the family[00:02:27]
Walked inside the crib[00:02:28]
The mood was wrong damn[00:02:29]
I heard my moms in the background[00:02:31]
Screamin on the phone[00:02:32]
I rushed to get closer like yo mom[00:02:33]
What's wrong[00:02:35]
She said your brother's buggin out[00:02:36]
Hurry up take a look[00:02:37]
I grabbed my brother Floyd[00:02:38]
And we started to book[00:02:40]
It wouldn't take long[00:02:41]
He lived right around the block[00:02:42]
I tried to stay strong[00:02:44]
But I was shakin a lot[00:02:45]
Got there ran up the stairs[00:02:46]
He was stretched out in the lobby[00:02:48]
A 7-year jail bid physique graced his body[00:02:49]
I fell to my knees[00:02:52]
Like no Jerry please[00:02:53]
I was frightened[00:02:54]
He was fightin to breathe[00:02:55]
Mumblin somethin[00:02:56]
Heav' don't let 'em take me I ain't ready to leave[00:02:57]
I felt his clutch on the cuff of my sleeve[00:03:00]
Then it eased[00:03:02]
He felt calm[00:03:03]
As he died in my arms[00:03:03]
OD's off of heron[00:03:05]
And just like that he was gone[00:03:06]
Thanksgiving day will forever be hard[00:03:08]
Cause that's the day we gave my brother to God[00:03:10]
Ma you hear me[00:03:13]
Thanksgiving day will forever be hard[00:03:13]
Cause that's the day we gave my brother to God[00:03:15]
I love you[00:03:18]
Ask heaven heaven is there room for me[00:03:19]
Cause I believe[00:03:29]
That's where you'll be[00:03:32]
Waiting for me[00:03:35]
At the end of a stairway to heaven[00:03:37]
Ask heaven heaven is there room for me[00:03:41]
Cause I believe[00:03:51]
That's where you'll be[00:03:53]
Waiting for me[00:03:56]
At the end of a stairway to heaven[00:03:58]
Ask heaven heaven is there room for me[00:04:03]
Cause I believe[00:04:12]
