letra de closest thing to heaven - ghetts

[intro]
yeah
you know what?
i grow up so blessed
some people never had the parents around, i grew up with both
my mum, we’ve been through hard times and always been there for me, you know
this is just a sign of respect

[verse 1]
dear margy, i hope that we never have to part ways
three kids and i’m giving you the most heartache
so when i talk to my little bro
i say to him “chill”, how much more can mum’s heart take?
i recall thorpe park, [?]
trips we took
now i wish i never skipped the books
i wanted a fast wage
even so, my last car chase
but there ain’t nothing like a mother’s love
i even swore, i was done with drugs
and then you found out, i was still shotting cl-ss a
bunking school and telling it was half day
i know i deserved every beating i got
same mistakes, i was repeating a lot
at night, i could even hear when you was speaking to god
i come home to smell weed on my top
how can a son of a teacher be an underachiever
but changes in a process?

[interlude]
mum
i love you
i swear down from the bottom of my heart
you’re the reason i’m still on road (i’m still here)

[verse 2]
i did time and you never missed a visit
you came to see me, even in the blizzard
even when i was up north, i told you not to bother (it’s too far)
but it’s like say, you could read a son’s thoughts
because deep down i missed you
but i was flexing like it weren’t an issue
and when i rung home
you could hear the pain my voice
i’m in the block, mum
i can’t wait till i come home
but time seems like it stopped, mum
i don’t even wanna think about release dates
because every time i see the gates
i’m thinking of a sweet escape
even though i’ve done the crime
knowing the risk, i still wish i beat the case
it was supposed to be a piece of cake
p-ssed i can’t see your face
i’m back home
but how long can i keep it straight?
i’m trying to keep clean
because i know you wanna keep me safe

[interlude]
i swear down from the bottom of my heart, mum
look
whole family

[verse 3]
i’m your eldest son
so i gotta my example now
i used to play the [?] when my father’s out
making b–by traps to guard the house
now i’m older, i’m trying to build a large account
could you worked enough?
strong black woman wouldn’t tremble if the earth erupts
get back and turn the furnace up
you deserve a break
i’ma tell my little sister, serve a plate
she can cook, she won’t burn it up
look, i just wanna make you proud
how does entertainment sound?
i can tell nanny, felt happy when i changed around
you’re a queen, i won’t let anybody take your crown
some could only wish on my mother like mine
one in a million, there ain’t another like mine
i can only say i’m sorry for the pain i’ve inflicted
when i set pace, [?] resistant now
you can check base on my face, you can witness

[outro]
i swear down from the bottom of my heart
i know my singing’s not enough
the spotlight’s on me now, mum
i’ma make the whole family proud
yeah
i’m just dancing now, man
i feel like i wanna cry
22 years and counting
aye, merlin, magic
