[Intro – Choir, slow organ chords]
(Aaahhh… Hallelujah…)
I lift my lungs to the sky…
Praise to the flame, even if it’s a lie…
Bliss wrapped in ashes, sin in disguise…
Every hit a prayer, every prayer a goodbye…
---
[Verse 1 – Jelly Roll style, raw & heavy]
Resin stuck to my lips like a kiss of the damned,
Torch hittin’ glass, I’m a slave to the hand.
Coughed blood in the sink but I call it relief,
High so holy, but the crash so brief.
Mama said smoke would take my soul,
But the green’s the only thing that makes me whole.
Praising the flame while I choke on the truth,
What feels like salvation is robbin’ my youth.
---
[Hook – Full choir, praising but conflicted]
Holy smoke, lift me higher than the choir,
Bliss in the blaze, but it burns in the fire.
Weed holds me close when the pain won’t sleep,
But the drugs don’t love me, they just cut me deep.
---
[Verse 2 – Juice WRLD style, melodic but graphic]
Eyes red, veins like rivers of tar,
Heartbeat racin’ like I’m stuck in a war.
Dabs got me floatin’ like a ghost in the pews,
But the silence after hittin’ leaves me broken, confused.
Glass pipe look like stained church glass,
Halo of smoke, but the angels don’t last.
One more hit, lungs screamin’ for air,
Feels like Heaven, but Hell’s right there.
---
[Bridge – Choir, haunting echo]
(Amen… Amen… Don’t love you back…)
(It don’t love you back… Don’t love you back…)
Praises in the smoke, curses in my chest,
Every hallelujah just a counterfeit rest.
Bliss for a minute, then the demons attack,
God forgive me, but I keep crawling back.
---
[Verse 3 – Jelly Roll storytelling, longer & darker]
Woke up shakin’, sweatin’ through the sheets,
Body beggin’ for a hit just to feel complete.
Preacher tellin’ me that Heaven don’t sell,
But the plug on the corner feel closer than Hell.
I seen friends turn white in the lips,
Eyes roll back when the needle hits.
Swore I’d never go that far down,
But the devil wears a halo when the smoke’s around.
---
[Hook – Bigger choir, swelling]
Holy smoke, lift me higher than the choir,
Bliss in the blaze, but it burns in the fire.
Weed holds me close when the pain won’t sleep,
But the drugs don’t love me, they just cut me deep.
---
[Verse 4 – Juice WRLD outro verse, trippy and sad]
Got demons in the blunt, angels in the wax,
Feel heaven when it hits, then I fall through the cracks.
Chest heavy, vision blurry, leanin’ on faith,
But I’m praisin’ a ghost that I’ll never replace.
Smilin’ in the smoke, but my tears don’t lie,
Every high a hymn, every hymn goodbye.
I’m a saint with a lighter, a sinner in pain,
Singin’ hallelujah while I drown in the flame.
---
[Final Hook – Full Choir Explosion]
Holy smoke, raise me higher than the choir,
Bliss in the blaze, but it burns in the fire.
Weed keeps me warm when my soul feels weak,
But the drugs don’t love me — they just watch me bleed.
---
[Outro – Choir fading, ghostly organ]
Hallelujah to the high…
Hallelujah to the lie…
Ashes on my hands,
Bliss in my lungs,
