Lyrics of ouyangjing's "Heaven's ceiling"

Written by Jin Auyeung, & Gilbere Forte & Rakib Uddin

he just turned 18

high school senior

dreamed of the NFL

captain of the football team

prom King

mom proud

college bound

like look at my baby

he’s a scholar now

while the homies

was gettin’ faded

he concentrated

kept his nose inside

them books and now he finally made it

celebrated with the fam’

he the first to be

overcomin’ obstacles

and adversity

so many dark days

and cold, cold nights

but the future’s

lookin’ oh so bright

that’s why it doesn’t

seem quite fair

dreams turn into

a nightmare

he was gone

by the time paramedics arrived

ironically

the drunk driver survived

at the funeral

his mom just

cried and cried

couldn’t help but keep

wonderin’ why

then she heard

an angel sing

faith is forever

so right now, let’s just go

to where we lead the world (lead the world x3)

so far bring us home

we will never know (never know x2) x4

to Heaven’s Ceiling

we take this life

and bring it

home with me x2

to Heaven’s Ceiling

we take this life

and bring it

home with me x2

to Heaven’s Ceiling

she’s a mother of three

two boys

one girl

and a husband

indeed feelin’ blessed

way beyond words can describe

and she wears it with pride

soccer practice

grocery shoppin’

and filin’ taxes

in the midst of all this

it’s still dinner at six

ou thought it didn’t exist

it’s real

we searchin’ for answers

time stood still

when she heard the words

cervical cancer

hid her fears below

doctor said she had six months

that was three years ago

now the whole fam’ is

gathered at the side of her bed

only sound is

silence that’s inside of her head

tears rollin’ down her cheeks

she’s beginnin’ to pray

closed her eyes

she started driftin’ away

it’ll be okay

faith is forever

so right now, let’s just go

to where we lead the world (lead the world x3)

so far bring us home

we will never know (never know x2) x4

to Heaven’s Ceiling

we take this life

and bring it

home with me x2

to Heaven’s Ceiling

we take this life

and bring it

home with me x2

to Heaven’s Ceiling

I’m tryin’ to be faithful

for every second

I’m grateful

that we had together

forever and ever

I will treasure but

why did they

have to take you?

still can’t let you go

just to let you know

everytime I close my eyes

I see your face

God bless your soul

faith is forever

so right now, let’s just go

to where we lead the world (lead the world x3)

so far bring us home

ee will never know (never know x2) x4

to Heaven’s Ceiling x3
