Heven Tonite Lyrics

[chorus]

Preacher man wanna save my soul

don't nobody wanna save my life

People we done lost control

Let's make heaven tonight

Preacher man wanna save my soul

don't nobody wanna save my life

People we done lost control

Let's make heaven tonight



Now as I sleep, may the oxygen inflate my lungs

May my arteries and heart oscillate as one

If police come may I awake, escape, and run

in the morning may have the sake to scrape the funds

And if I take the plunge

may it be said that I wasn't afraid to shake my tongue

show the state was scum,

makin' sure that the callin' bell of fate was rung

'Cause if they could they would and probably tried to rape the sun



Someone said this is just a just my body, wait for the after-party

where there ain't no shutoff note and every wallet there is knotty

Feet on the asphalt, dick in the dirt

this system takes viccin' to work,



Listen alert

check out the introvert, in the corner with the rip in her skirt

Stomach pain so she's grippin' her shirt

Ain't never had dinner, so ya know she ain't gettin' desert

Don't tell me it's her mission to hurt



I got faith in the people and they power to fight

We gon' make this struggle blossom like a flower to light

I know that we can take power tonight

make 'em cower from might

and get emergency clearance from the tower for flight



I ain't sittin' in your pews, unless ya helpin' me resist and refuse

show me a list of yo' views

If ya really love me, help me tear this motherfucker up

consider this my tithe for the offer cup



[chorus]

Preacher man wanna save my soul

don't nobody wanna save my life

People we done lost control

Let's make heaven tonight

Preacher man wanna save my soul

don't nobody wanna save my life

People we done lost control

Let's make heaven tonight



I used to think about infinity

and how my memory is finna be invisibly slim in that vicinity

And though the stars are magnificent

whisky and the midnight sky can make ya feel insignificant



The revolution in this tune and verse

is a bid for my love to touch the universe

Struggling over wages and funds

let the movement get contagious and run

Through the end when it's gauges and guns

And if we win in the ages to come

we'll have a chapter where the history pages are from



They won't never know our name or face

but feel our soul in free food they taste

Feel our passion when they heat they house

when they got power on the street and the police don't beat 'em about



Let's make health care centers on every block

Let's give everybody homes and a garden plot

Let's give all the kids books, ten kids a class

and give 'em truth for they pencils and pads

Retail clerk: love ballads's where you place this song

Let's make heaven right here just in case they wrong



[chorus]

Preacher man wanna save my soul

don't nobody wanna save my life

People we done lost control

Let's make heaven tonight

Preacher man wanna save my soul

don't nobody wanna save my life

People we done lost control

Let's make heaven tonight



[chorus]

Preacher man wanna save my soul

don't nobody wanna save my life

People we done lost control

Let's make heaven tonight

Preacher man wanna save my soul

don't nobody wanna save my life

People we done lost control

Let's make heaven tonight
