[Intro]
Yeah…
Concrete tears, cold nights…
Talkin’ to the sky like you still ridin’ with me.
[Hook]
Heaven’s gates got me locked outside,
Tryna reach you but the pain won’t hide,
City lights but my world went dark,
Since the day you left, got a hole in my heart.
Heaven’s gates keep you safe above,
I’m down here still bleed for your love,
Every step that I take feel fake,
Still yell your name at heaven’s gate.
[Verse 1]
Late night streets, hoodie pulled low,
Demons in my head, nowhere to go,
Smoke in my lungs just dull that ache,
Tryna numb memories I can’t escape.
We came from struggle, dirt on our kicks,
Learned real fast life play dirty tricks,
Sirens sing while the block stays cold,
Lost my day one, now my soul feel old.
I still pour one out by the curb at night,
Talk to the moon under streetlight light,
They say you watchin’, hope that’s true,
’Cause half of me disappeared with you.
[Hook]
Heaven’s gates got me locked outside,
Tryna reach you but the pain won’t hide,
City lights but my world went dark,
Since the day you left, got a hole in my heart.
Heaven’s gates keep you safe above,
I’m down here still bleed for your love,
Every step that I take feel fake,
Still yell your name at heaven’s gate.
[Verse 2]
We was young, reckless, chasin’ dreams fast,
Never thought our good times wouldn’t last,
Now I walk alone through the same old lane,
Every corner whisperin’ your name.
Friends fade out when the nights get rough,
Real ones gone hit hardest enough,
I learned pain don’t show in a smile,
Street tears fall when you alone a while.
Told myself I gotta stay strong,
Live right even when everything wrong,
Carry your lessons inside my chest,
Every move I make try give my best.
[Bridge]
If heaven got streets, hope you runnin’ free,
No more stress, no more enemies,
Save me a spot when my time’s done,
Till then I fight till my race is run.
[Final Hook]
Heaven’s gates got me locked outside,
Still talk to you on every ride,
Heart heavy but I won’t break,
I’ll see you again past heaven’s gate.
[Outro]
Yeah…
Real ones never die…
They just wait on the other side.
