Heavenbound Lyrics


Heavenbound
Don't you know I'm Heavenbound
Heavenbound
Reachin' for that higher groundHeavenbound
Don't you know I'm Heavenbound
Heavenbound
Reachin' for that higher groundCold 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 loveNot 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 HeavenboundHeavenbound
Don't you know I'm Heavenbound
Heavenbound
Reachin' for that higher groundHeavenbound
Don't you know I'm Heavenbound
Heavenbound

Reachin' for that higher groundJump 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 HeavenboundSerious 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 groundHeavenbound
Don't you know I'm Heavenbound
Heavenbound
Reachin' for that higher groundHeavenbound
Don't you know I'm Heavenbound
Heavenbound
Reachin' for that higher groundCall 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 un-blurred, you can find the keyGotta 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 HeavenboundIf you want eternal life
Choose my friend, He's Jesus Christ
Only He can set you free
From your sin and miseryGod has promised us a home in glory
Trust in Him
The trump will sound
And all God's children are HeavenboundHeavenbound
Don't you know I'm Heavenbound
Heavenbound
Reachin' for that higher groundHeavenbound
Don't you know I'm Heavenbound
Heavenbound
Reachin' for that higher groundDon't look down, stand around
Keep on reachin' for higher ground
Kinda profound, a trump will sound
And all God's children are Heavenbound

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
dc Talk is made up of Toby McKeehan (TobyMac), Michael Tait, and Kevin Max.

The three met while they were young men at Liberty University in Lynchburg, Virginia. They formed the band dc Talk (a reference to Washington D.C., but later marketed as 'decent Christian talk' by their label) and, as of the year 2000, spent twelve solid years together, performing all over the world, recording 6 albums, and earning many awards, including 4 Grammy awards.

Their music, aimed at a younger audience, combined hip-hop, rap, and R&B sensibilities and filled a gap in 1980s Christian Music and gave them a unique niche. Their first three albums, dc Talk, Nu Thang, and Free At Last started from their rap/hip-hop roots but increasingly included melodic vocal rock influences. Their 1995 studio album, Jesus Freak, continued this musical evolution by eshewing almost all rap elements and adopting a harder modern rock/grunge sound on many songs, especially the title track. Their most recent studio album, Supernatural, draws on their previous efforts while moving towards mainstream pop stylings.

Their signature sound in all albums is their use of the three members' different vocal skills separately and together. They are often lauded for their lyrical sophistication, addressing many themes in Christian theology, faith, and practice.

After more than ten years together as a group, they are taking a break in recording together to pursue their own activities outside of the band, and launch solo careers in recording music. Michael Tait formed his own band, Tait, and has most recently served as the frontman for Newsboys. Toby McKeehan has released music under the name TobyMac, and has been the most sucessful of the three. Kevin Max has released two solo albums of his own.
