A Higher Premuim
All who dies want to go to heaven
Without question, that is a given
Believing in God may not be enough
If Black folk needs insurance and stuff
All premiums will be based on race
just like living on earth that's in place.
will be determined by one’s credit score,
to get into heaven we'd still pay more.
Asians and Caucasians, to pay a lower rate
Africans and Latinos won't get a break.
St Peter the gatekeeper, if it was up to him,
Everyone deserving could waltz on in.
Some insurance companies actuaries,
lobbied God for rates that varies
Europeans, with low or no credit score
there's no reason to charge them more.
There's a bigger risk in certain neighborhoods
It was a point they made real good.
We all know heaven is free of crime
yet, some insisted, just a matter of time.
Some of us know that's nothing new,
here on earth, heard the same excuse too.
Lucifer said my problems is real minor
it's either go to hell, or a White cosigner
Good luck with that, he said walking away,
then uttered, I'll still have the devil to pay
since my rates are still gonna be higher
because I have to include, who ever as a rider.
