Heavenly Pact

Signed it in the dirt

Palm to the sky

Said if I fall first

You better still try

Back when the fridge hums

Louder than our laughs

Shared one dream

And a bus ride pass

You said “If I win

Then we both eat”

Pinky in the dark

Over cracked concrete

Angels as our witnesses

Even if they turned their back

Two broke kids in the hallway

Calling it a heavenly pact

Heavenly pact

We ain’t turning back

Hands in the air

Like we swear on that

If I fly up

I’ma pull you with me (yeah)

If I get stuck

You gon’ ride it with me (ride)

We don’t shake hands

We exchange whole pasts

Blood in the dust

That’s a heavenly pact

Mom still praying

On a folding chair

Name on her list

Every midnight there

You were on the line

Talking ’bout you might slip

Said “Bro, I’m right here

You ain’t losing this grip”

Now the phone screens glow

When my name flash by

But it don’t feel gold

If you not nearby

Every stage I touch

I feel you at my back

Every “amen” in the crowd

That’s our heavenly pact

If I go first

You keep my verse alive (alive)

Etch my words

On your battle cry

If you go first

Then I’ll carry your name

Tattoo that promise

In every flame

Heavenly pact

We ain’t turning back

Hands in the air

Like we swear on that

If I fly up

I’ma pull you with me (pull you)

If I get stuck

You gon’ ride it with me

We don’t shake hands

We exchange whole pasts

Blood in the dust

That’s a heavenly pact
