Heaven I Need A Hug Lyrics by R. Kelly

Heaven I Need A Hug Lyrics

    I'm just bein' real, you know

    I'm like the sun, I'm tryin' to shine on everybody

    You know what I'm sayin'

    But it's like situation after situation, you know

    So I write about it to get it off my chest, you heard



    Dear mama, you wouldn't believe what I'm goin' through

    But still I got my head up just like I promised you

    Every since you left your baby, boy's been dealin'with

    Problem after problem, tell me what am I supposed to do

    See, I get lost sometimes, don't understand this place

    Look in the mirror sometimes and see a troubled face

    And then my tears roll down and hit the sink

    Then I hold my head up high, I hope the Man upstairs can hear my cry

    All these questions deep inside my mind

    Like if Jesus loved me, why he leave my side, mama

    I'm still tryin' to get the answer why

    You were young, 45, and you had to die

    I'm always tryin' to help people out

    And it's them same people tryin' to take food out my mouth



    (Fo' real tho') It seems like the more money I make

    (Fo' real tho') The more drama y'all try to create

    (Fo' real tho') And through I try to move into the positive

    (Fo' real tho') The more y'all don't wanna let me live



    When will you realize that I don't owe you nothin'

    Need to get up off your butt and go get your own somethin'

    I'm pullin' on my hair to keep from snappin' off

    Fools ride up in my camp and be actin' off

    Somebody out there please pray what I'm talkin' 'bout

    Still young tryin' to figure it out



    Heaven, I need a hug

    Is there anybody out there willin' to embrace a thug

    Feelin' like a change of heart

    And all I really need is a sign or a word from God

    So shower down on me, wet me with your love

    I need you to take me and lift me up, oh, yeah



    I gave 13 years of my life to this industry

    Hit song or not, I've given all of me

    You smile in my face and tell me that you love

    But then before you know the truth, you're so quick to judge me

    That's alright, go ahead, keep talkin'

    'Cause I'mma hold my head up high and keep walkin'

    And reach for the sky, focus on the plan

    Rescue the kid with his paper a pen

    And this is for the homies that we lost

    Yo', we cannot forget y'all, so the hats come off

    We pour a little liquor out for the memory

    I know y'all up there sittin' on chrome in them pearly streets

    The street survivors before careful, stay alive

    I'm prayin' for your families, I hope you pray for mine



    (Fo' real tho') Used to be a time you wished me well

    (Fo' real tho') It hurts to know you wanna see me fail

    (Fo' real tho') And don't forget I kept you out of jail

    (Fo' real tho') Where's my arms when you needed to be held



    They turn they backs on you, who was there believin'

    Who said your troubles were only for a season

    In church together tryin' to pick up all the pieces

    And now you betray me, I bind you in the name of Jesus

    Somebody please pray what I'm talkin' 'bout

    Still young tryin' to figure it all out



    Heaven, I need a hug

    Is there anybody out there willin' to embrace a thug

    Feelin' like a change of heart

    And all I really need is a sign or a word from God

    (Please shower down)

    So shower down on me, wet me with your love (Yeah)

    I need you to take me and lift me up (Oh...oh...yeah, yeah, yeah)



    Man, I tell you it's enough to make you wanna give it up

    Thank God for my fans 'cause through it all they show me love

    To my sister and to brothers

    Tell me why can't we just try to get along with one another

    And stop hurtin' one another, fightin' one another

    Man, I pray to God He get my family back together

    Let me see what wanna see, just to blind me

    All of these luxuries, wine and dining

    And then You push me out in front to get behind me

    Then You sat me up by blessin' me to bind me

    I'm a grown man with kids now, stakes are high

    Gotta go to church now to avoid the fight

    Frankly, y'all to keep it real I'm just tired

    Have dreams of bein' dead, but the devil is alive



    (Fo' real tho') Church folks, you need to stop judgin'

    (Fo' real tho') Or you will be the first to be judged

    (Fo' real tho') And women stop dependin' on us men

    (Fo' real tho') And start dependin' on the Man above, feel me



    And as for robbin', here's what I need to do

    Get rid of them clowns and get myself a whole 'nother crew

    Media, do your job

    But please just don't make my job so hard

    Somebody please pray what I'm talkin' 'bout

    I'm still young tryin' to figure it all out



    Heaven, I need a hug

    Is there anybody out there willin' to embrace a thug

    Feelin' like a change of heart

    And all I really need is a sign or a word from God

    So shower down on me (Shower down on me now), wet me with your love

    I need you to take me (Please) and lift me up, yeah,

    yeah (Said I'm callin' on heaven)



    Heaven, I need a hug

    Is there anybody out there willin' to embrace a thug

    Feelin' like a change of heart

    And all I really need is a sign or a word from God

    So shower down on me, wet me with your love

    I need you to take me and lift me up (Lift me up),

    yeah, yeah (Heaven I need)



    Heaven, I need a hug (Ooh, yeah, yeah)

    Is there anybody out there willin' to embrace a thug

    Said I'm Feelin' like a change of heart (Hey)

    And all I really need is a sign or a word from God (Ooh, yeah)

    So shower down on me (Shower down), wet me with your love (Take me)

    I need you to take me and lift me up, yeah, yeah
