Mama used to say to me, you can make your destiny

Keep your feet planted on the ground

You can always get it back, make a castle from a one room shack

It's all of what you make of what you've found

Son you're gonna find out when you're older

There's always been the hand of god restin' right there on your shoulder

The choice is up to you

Look to the sky, the answer is clear

Are you gonna, live life for all it's worth

Choose hell, or heaven on earth

If you live it right, there's nothing to fear

'Cause you'll find heaven right here



Saw a man the other day, had it made in every way

Till his greed brought him down

He was blinded by the city lights, now he shivers in the cold tonight

Who will save the lifeguard when he's about to drown



Will it be hell or heaven on earth

The choice is up to you

Look to the sky, the answer is clear

Are you gonna, live life for all it's worth

Choose hell, or heaven on earth

If you live it right, there's nothing to fear

'Cause you'll find heaven right here



You know you're gonna walk through fire

You know your gonna feel the pain

Oh you're gonna lose, if you want to win the game

And everytime your heart is breakin'

And everytime your faith is shaken

Remember what mama said... Oh that day...



Hope when my time has come

I've left enough to build upon

Ain't no one gonna say I didn't try

Here's why...



Hell or heaven on earth

The choice is up to you

Look to the sky, the answer is clear

Are you gonna, live life for all it's worth

Choose hell, or heaven on earth

If you live it right, there's
