Heavenbound Lyrics by DC Talk

DC Talk: The Early Years

1989

[Intro: TobyMac]
Cut it up!
Cut-cut it, cut-cut-cut-cut it, cut it
Cut-cut it, cut it up one time!
Cut it up one time!
Oh, yeah
Hu-Heaven, hu-hu-Heaven
Hu-Heavenbound! (Bound)

[Chorus: Michael Tait]
Heavenbound
Don't you know I'm Heavenbound?
Heavenbound
Reachin' for that higher ground
Heavenbound
Don't you know I'm Heavenbound?
Heavenbound
Reachin' for that higher ground

[Verse 1: TobyMac, TobyMac & Choir]
Cold rappin' for the King with a sting in my voice
Not condemnin' men or women but relayin' a choice
Higher ground is the sound that I'm talkin' of
Opportunity knocks through a different love
Not love like we know it like ya love your girl
It's a love from above, not of this world
It's kinda profound, a trump will sound
And all God's children are Heavenbound
Hit it!

[Chorus: Michael Tait & TobyMac]
Heavenbound
Don't you know I'm Heavenbound?
Heavenbound
Reachin' for that higher ground
Heavenbound (We're Heavenbound)
Don't you know I'm Heavenbound?
Heavenbound
Reachin' for that higher ground

[Verse 2: TobyMac, TobyMac & Choir]
Ju-ju-ju-ju-ju-jump on the job and live for Him
Do you lie satisfied in a state of sin?
Listen while I christen a serious sound
Rap cold revin' 'cause I'm Heavenbound
Serious lyrics don't disregard
No treason, gotta reason that I rap so hard
Don't look down or stand around
But keep on reachin' for higher ground
Now we're…

[Chorus: Michael Tait & TobyMac]
Heavenbound
Don't you know I'm Heavenbound?
Heavenbound (We're Heavenbound)
Reachin' for that higher ground
Heavenbound
Don't you know I'm Heavenbound?
Heavenbound
Reachin' for that higher ground

[Verse 3: TobyMac, TobyMac & Choir]
Call us the Heavenbound Crew and you can be too
If you only knew what He did for you
Christ died, don't ya see? To set us free
Look in the Word unblurred, you can find the key
Gotta choice to be voiced, receive Him or not
Like right or left, cold on the spot
It seems kinda easy when ya break it down
As for me and my boys, we're Heavenbound

[Bridge: Michael Tait & TobyMac]
If you want eternal life
Choose my friend, He's Jesus Christ
Only He can set ya free
From your sin and misery
Break it down
Ooh, God has promised us a home in glory
Come on, come on, come on
Trust in Him
The trump will sound
And all God's children are Hea-Hea-Heavenbound

[Chorus: Michael Tait & TobyMac]
Heavenbound
Don't look down, stand around
Don't you know I'm Heavenbound?
Keep on reachin' for higher ground
Heavenbound
Kinda profound, a trump will sound
Reachin' for that higher ground
And all God's children are Heavenbound
Heavenbound
Don't look down, stand around
Don't you know I'm Heavenbound?
Keep on reachin' for higher ground
Heavenbound
Kinda profound, a trump will sound
Reachin' for that higher ground
And all God's children are Heavenbound

[Break: TobyMac]
Heavenbound, Heavenbound
Hu-hu-Heavenbound
Hu-hu-Heaven
Ha-ha-ho-ha-Heaven ha
Ha-Heavenbound
Break!

[Breakdown: TobyMac]
Don't look down, stand around
Keep on reachin' for higher ground
Kinda profound, a trump will sound
And all God's children are Heavenbound!

[Outro: Michael Tait & TobyMac]
Can't you see…
Can't you see…
I'm Heavenbound?
That I'm Heavenbound?
Don't you know…
Do-don't you know…
I'm Heavenbound?
I'm Heavenbound?
Heavenbound
Don't you know I'm Heavenbound?
Heavenbound
