Knockin' On Heaven's Door

I remember playin' my guitar in the projects

(Playin' in the PJ)

A product of the environment

(Pour some liquor for those who passed away)

I told my mom I'm gon' get up out of the hood (Mama)

My dad taught me the American dream, baby

(You can be anything that you wanna)

If I did it, y'all could do it (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)

Mama, take these guns away from here (Mama)

I can't shoot them anymore (Cease fire)

I feel a dark cloud comin' over me (So cold, so dark)

It feels like I'm knockin' on Heaven's door

To Biggie Smalls and Tupac

Knock, knock, knockin' on Heaven's door

To Freaky Tie, and Big Hair, we're

Knock, knock, knockin' on Heaven's door

It's where the Princess Lea waits

Knock, knock, knockin' on Heaven's door

To my brother Big Pon, we're

Knock, knock, knockin' on Heaven's door, oh, Lord (Oh, Lord)

Would someone take these guns away from here

Take these guns from the streets

I can't shoot my brothers anymore

I seen it done dry

I feel a dark cloud comin' over me (Over me)

(It feels like) It feels like I'm knockin' on Heaven's door

So sing along, street children, we're

Knock, knock, knockin' on Heaven's door

To my daddy that passed away

Knock, knock, knockin' on Heaven's door

To the God-friend Jordan, we're

Knock, knock, knockin' on Heaven's door

To my people doin' time, we're

Knock, knock, knockin' on Heaven's door

Crimson blood, Latin peeps, please just chill

With the violence, though even, though I know

That the bad boy moves in silence

I'm askin' y'all please chill

With the violence, said even, though I know

That the gangsters move in silence

Whoa, we're knock, knock, knockin' on Heaven's door

To my people in the Twin Tower, we're

Knock, knock, knockin' on Heaven's door

Oh, to my soldiers in the Pelican

Knock, knock, knockin' on Heaven's door

New York, New York, New York, New York, New York

(Mama) To my people in the streets

I'm talkin' to you now

Please, put down your heat

Oh, Lord, to my brothers that's on the corner

Oh, God, ay, get out quick

Or you, too, will be knockin' on Heaven's door
