Title: A Place Like This

_______________________________________________

Verse 1:
I had to get away,
find some time to pray and assess my life.
As good as it can be,it's sadly incomplete
with all this pain inside.

Now it's so beautiful here, any time of year,
the waterfalls and the streets of gold;
are those angels I hear singing?

Chorus 1:
I want a place like this,
that I can call my own.

I want a place like this,
where I will never be alone.

I want a place like this,
where I can finally be free.

I want a place like this,
made especially for me.

(Heaven is where I wanna be)

Verse 2:
There, way up on the hill,
that's where joy lives, with happiness.
And down milk and honey way,
lives a brighter day next to love overflowing.

A picture perfect scene, so calm and serene,
where paradise begins, life will never end;
are those angels I hear singing?

Chorus 2:
I want a place like this,
that I can call my own.

I want a place like this,
where I will never be alone.

I want a place like this,
where I can finally be free.

I want a place like this,
yeah, this is where I wanna be.

Chorus 1

Bridge:
I wanna place like this for you and me,
where we can be free,
(I can't wait to dance through the waterfalls),
(and skate through the streets of gold).

I wanna place like this for you and me,
where we can be free,
(can't wait to sing, laugh, and play),
(hear the bells ring).


Rap:
Let's go, hope you're open
to focusin' on the afterlife;
I am, don't have to ask me twice.

Gettin' in, though I paid half the price,
stayed ‘til my way was made,
learned the facts of life.

Play it cool in here, never be alone,
place you can call a home,
spot that's all your own and be free.

Grits and CeCe on point again,
it's all bliss, my friend,
in a place like this again.

Vamp:
It's where I wanna be,
I wanna be.

It's where I wanna be,
I wanna be.

I wanna a place for you and me,
la, da, da, da, da.

I wanna place like this for you and me,
where we can be free,
free, free, free,
free, free, free, yeah;
I want a place like this.

Chorus 3
I want a place like this,
that I can call my own.

I want a place like this,
where I will never be alone.

I want a place like this,
where I can finally be free.

I want a place like this.
