Alexander - Heaven [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

(Verse 1: AleXander)
Let’s flashback all the way straight to the fifth grade
Talking about this kid, who slowly became sick
Anthony was his name, the name to me isn’t the same
We didn’t really get along, but then I heard what happened to his brain
The whole class was upset. telling us of his death
The kids were just crying, one couldn’t hold his breath
I didn’t know what to feel, that night, couldn’t finish my meal
The next day lashawn came to me. the look on his face was told
He looked shocked as he uttered, “…his skin was cold.”

(Chorus)
I didn’t say goodbye to them
But now there in heaven

(Verse 2: AleXander)
Death is something that’s unpleasant, but you gotta hear it anyway
First death in the family was my grandma, unexpectedly on one day
Everybody was freaking out and I stood silent without a shout
As my mom parked in a hurry, then she took off, everything blurry
I saw down them running to the nursing home
Everybody standing and running alone
My sister crying in the back seat, I felt my emotions were in defeat
Then the ambulance came, took her body. then came the rain

(Chorus)
I didn’t say goodbye to them
But now there in heaven

(Verse 3: AleXander)
With a yip and a yap, gizmo was happy just like that
When I was little, didn’t know that gizmo
Would be replaced with nibble
But as the years went by, we had to say bye
It was the time of his life where he had to die
He had a infection growing on his back
He started bleeding everyday everywhere, cleaning up the crap
We treated him some medicine, but nothing was not working for him
So he whined and cried in pain, nobody couldn’t look at him the same
So my grandma signed an appointment to just put him to sleep
I didn’t know what to think, looking into his eyes as he barely blinked
But he cried right there, and i realized it was his time
I stood up, walked away, didn’t say a word, too much on my mind
Two weeks later, eating pork chops, watching “Fantastic Mr. Fox”
My father came in, telling me he needed to talk to me desperately
So he explained that while I was in the room
My grandfather took gizmo away
I gasped and looked down as he said
“gizmo, passed away today.”

(Interlude)
I receive jesus to take control of my life
I receive jesus to take control of my life
And that I might live for him, from this day forward
And that I might live for him, from this day forward
Amen
