P. Reign - Angels lyrics

[Hook: sample from A team by Ed Sheeran] In a pipe she flies to the Motherland Or sells love to another man It's too cold outside For angels to fly Angels to fly [Verse 1: P.Reign] We vow to protect our hoods to the fullest But now we mourn for that night that we couldn't Said I'd be anything besides the n***a that pulled it But in the hood even Neo couldn't dodge that bullet I was told the game was cold Who the f** is you telling? See they threw us in hell But we reached for the heavens Said our past was trash Well our future is bright And life's a gift, I'm just busy unwrapping the price Divided my soul, left it all in the streets I'm just caught in a game, where they playing for keeps I pray they put the piece down and start praying for peace But cold hearts won't allow them to part with the heat They say you eat what you k**, but they k**ing to eat They say you live and you learn, well I'm dying to teach I never seen a sun ray that couldn't beat the shade I pray God won't ever give us more than we can take [Hook: sample from A team by Ed Sheeran] In a pipe she flies to the Motherland Or sells love to another man It's too cold outside For angels to fly Angels to fly [Verse 2: P.Reign] At 16 I was selling weed, at 17 I was running with thieves At 18 my old G handed me a half B and told me G's get cheese I need you to understand I ain't trying to brag I'm just showing how young G's taught to get it in Being a gangsta only is bad So run and tell your block f** fittin in And everybody in the clique loves you Me and Gill are like your big brothers And I know them n***as stole your dreams But they can never take your smile from us Just seen your moms like the other day I told her to hold a little money for ya And you the hoods little baby girl So no matter where you at I know it's sunny for ya R.I.P Shy, R.I.P Josh I just wish I wasn't there when they squeezed off Mean I wish them little n***as would of eased off But I guess they'll answer for it when they meet God Now watch the cops blame this on us Someone should of warned us about them corners They'd rather mourn us before they join us It took 23 people to get shot before they noticed Damn, my OG lost his daughter y'all My little cousin lost his close friend But he couldn't tell his mamma y'all Said he was fishing for the words but they wouldn't swim He told me “P I brought him to the hood” “It was just supposed to be a BBQ” I told him “don't beat yourself up” “There's no way that you could of knew” I try to tell myself sh** happens Just tryna make myself happy Spent my last years tryna earn cheers But these young boys doing the wrong clappin That ain't the applause that I been working for Worst shooting my citys ever seen And I guarantee you'll be hearing more If we don't start inspiring these kids to dream [Hook: sample from A team by Ed Sheeran] In a pipe she flies to the Motherland Or sells love to another man It's too cold outside For angels to fly Angels to fly
