Mi Propio Cielo
Nach
My Own Heaven
Heaven must exist and I usually imagine it
If I had to reach it, I want to see you celebrate it
Heaven is our impossible dreams
Beyond the bars of this world
The knowledge of truth and oneself
My own heaven
Heaven must exist and I usually believe it exists
And I usually imagine it if I had to reach it, I want to see you celebrate it
Heaven is a quiet and clean place
The children of the ghetto here are angels playing among swings
No mothers suffering, no more men losing
No slums or elderly in alleys begging
Only artists creating with divine inspiration
Painting sculpting writing poems and rhymes
Without betrayals or hitmen or penitentiary centers
Or millionaires who steal with a checkbook
Here Israelis and Palestinians would be more than brothers
The Bible and the Quran written by the same hands
There would be no police or dictators here
There would be no dead presidents corrupting until the end
I would greet Indir, Gandhi, and Martin Luther King
I would play basketball against Drazen Petrovic and Fernando Martin
Parties in pools with goddesses in bikinis reggae music
Smoke a blunt with Tupac and Biggie
Drink a waikiri, look at the world from above
Watching little lost ants seeing their lives pass by
No king to worship, no boss to listen to
Heaven is a beautiful place that I usually imagine
No law to obey, no, no sick people
The eternal joy of seeing that time does not pass
That's how free I want you to imagine me
Making a song with Bob Marley and Jam Master Jay
Heaven is beautiful, that's what I hope, I want to make eternity a game
Hug my grandparents see my sister again
Knowing that whoever seeks war here on earth rots
Above the clouds that cover you love is discovered
And resentment is forgotten because nothing corrupts us
All the secrets that humanity hides are revealed
Heaven must exist and I usually imagine it
If I had to reach it, I want to see you celebrate it
I will be up there smiling and resting
My own divine heaven enchantment look at it
Heaven must exist and I usually imagine it
If I had to reach it, I want to see you celebrate it
I will be up there smiling and resting
My own divine heaven enchantment look at it
Travel to all the planets and galaxies of the universe
Practice endless intense sex, I think of my own heaven
And I see myself flying without distances, without suffering absences without regretting misfortunes
Thinking that there are no armies or bureaucracies here
No rich cynical politicians who hire mafias
Only peace and tolerance without a thirst for power
And without aging savoring the pleasure of a thousand fragrances
Greet Sigmund Freud and Albert Einstein and William Shakespeare
Without pretending or arguing just existing
I want you to smile if you ever see me leave
I won't be a martyr wherever I have to go I'm going to have fun
I could sleep on the rainbow and write my own epic
Smoke cannabis on some star
Organize gatherings with Dali, Neruda, and Garcia Lorca
There is no doubt if love comforts the rest doesn't matter
The only tears shed would be of happiness
There would be no darkness only unity and immortality
I long for a heaven of cotton and velvet
Where everyone lives far from this dirty ground
I imagine myself freestyling with Big Punny and Big L
Getting out of jail being in my own skin
Without prohibitions or censorship without injustices or trials
Without living harassed by bills or buildings
If I reach heaven I want you to have a big party
And celebrate my journey remembering feats
And past anecdotes great moments, stories, and eras
That will forever be marked
Remember that this is not a farewell
I still have many years, many achievements, many rhymes, much life
Today I just dream and imagine heaven
My feet are still on the ground and for now I stay here

My own heaven
Heaven must exist and I usually imagine it
If I had to reach it, I want to see you celebrate it
I will be up there smiling and resting
My own divine heaven enchantment look at it
Heaven must exist and I usually imagine it
If I had to reach it, I want to see you celebrate it
I will be up there smiling and resting
My own divine heaven enchantment look at it
