AWKWORD - Angels lyrics

[Verse 1: AWKWORD] They call me a creep, never said I'm angelic 'Cause I live on the street, no one knows where I'm headed Bearded, grimy, dirty, draped in old rags I can't show you the truth, like a man dressed in drag I'm penumbral, a relic, amorphous enigma, a vestige Praying for you, reckless, desperate need for a respite I get laughed at, derided, gas poured on me, ignited If I tried I couldn't write it, God told me earth was blighted I was handed down the mission, to save you all I saw through divination, 6 billion, four walls Cross continent, mountain range and ocean Incontinent, your boats crumbled like erosion So I grabbed my flight goggles, did some test runs Floated on cement clouds, hobbled, drinking red rum (um) Time to pay for my mistakes See it as a second chance, I guess it's never too late Celestial MD, then reverse through pearly gates I closed my crusty eyes, prayed I'd make it back safe Woke up in the gutter, bleeding from the face I forgot who I was, until I felt my wings shake Caught a glimpse of my reflection, remembered my cause Patched my tattered pinions, wrapped 'em in gauze Now I've been here 30 years, you ain't ready for the salve (damn) I'm your fallen angel on your corner, dissolve [Hook: Voli] (coming soon) [Bridge: Voli] (coming soon) [Verse 2: Jasiri X] Little petite light skinned shorty from B-More Stayed woke so she could see more Wait who's that knocking on the door Why's the police force dressed liked the Marine Corps Serving a warrant for a misdemeanor But no fear was this miss demeanor Pro Black rebel she wasn't switching neither She had a 5 year old he wasn't b**hing either Man they was living what they heard from resistance leaders Guns for me I got a gun for you Kodi what they come to do They want to k** us for cops it's nothing new Post it on Facebook Live and let the public view Black fatigues M-16s they bout to come and shoot Mommy got it Kodi hide in the closest Cops come in blasting little man was a prophet Catastrophic k**ed the goddess and even shot him My angel Korryn war is not an option (one) [Hook] [Verse 3: MK Asante] Fallen angel, balance was dangled I came here on a black star that was spangled Landed in Philly, city of angles Everybody got one, hots ones til the cops come I am from where you are not from Nizzaw you cannot come, wait in the car Everyday they earth quake my faith in Allah But my power keep growing like 48 laws Down so long, might never get up Out the mud, so raw, I don't ever get stuck Heavenly stuff, reverend of rough, how much is enough?Depends on what you got in the trunk Dependent on these devils cause they got what I want Hell of an advance so I can get it up front So I can get it and front, props for the stunt, proppin' you up Kif the L — copper-topping the blunt This that free-lunch room table-top Hip Hop That label-less melanin hittin' your ear drops The Devil disappear when your fear stop So fear not my havenots in earshot [Hook] [Outro: movie sample] Man 1: Sort of a fallen angel, aren't you? What happened to your wings? Man 2: I haven't earned my wings yet. That's what I'm an angel second-cla**
