Will our good works get us into Heaven? No! Were these songs created and performed in order to get into God’s good book and work my way into Heaven? Certainly not! We can all do good things in life, but there is only one way onto Heaven...

lyrics

[Chorus] If you could rap your way into Heaven.
If you could rap your way out of hell!
The whole world would be rapping,
The good the bad as well. [repeat]

You can’t try to justify the things that you still do.
You might die, might even fry, unless you find what’s true
So I rap, let’s rap, c’mon rap, let’s rap, GO!
If you are a kid or you are a child,
Get poetic get justice get reconciled
You gotta get in the light get poetic.
If you follow the dark you’re pathetic.

So I rap in time, I rap with rhyme,
but there’s something I’ve gotta say,
I rap for good and I rap for God
cuz there’s something I’ve gotta say
I rap for good and I rap for God
and I get down on my knees and pray.
When He speaks to me, it’s shear poetry,
but words just can’t explain.
The way that I feel, I know that God is real
so I rhyme in time again.

Though I’ve told you before I’ll tell you again.
I’ll tell you again and again and again.
I’ll keep telling you just as long as it takes,
You to realise we all make mistakes.
Rapping is easy, but you know it’s not the way.
You gotta pray to God in Heaven and this is what you say.
Please forgive me God for the things that I have done.
I believe in Jesus your one and only Son!

[Chorus]
