Wordsworth - Guardian Angel lyrics

[Intro] I can tell by the way (I know you looking down on me) You carry yourself (trying to make sure I do everything right) I can tell by the way (we all make mistakes though) You carry yourself (but if you can help me correct em) Here's what I'll do (and you not here in the flesh) I'll take care of you (but you here in the spirit) Here's what I'll do (be my guest) I'll take care of you [Verse 1] There's been times when I was ready to throw the cards on the table Til I realized in my life I had a guardian angel Some things hardly'll change you Til you escape cars being mangled When you coulda been scarred and disabled I'd rather watch others make em so I can learn from mistakes I shouldn't have to be enlightened after returning from wakes I swear how incidents take place the same second I leave And all the times that I went raw, I ain't catch a disease I know You was sent so you could watch me exist Gotta be my pops making up for the time that he missed I know It's like the movie Final Destination d**h skips you, knowing dead friends is taking steps with you And how you know they looking over you? Depends what you going through Not verbally, but through a vibe, then it's told to you While I'm alive, I'm dying within If you watching, hope you forgive and close your eyes when I sin And I know... [Hook] I can tell by the way (the way that I walk) You carry yourself (the way that I talk) I can tell by the way (the way that I live) You carry yourself (you gotta forgive) Here's what I'll do (my guardian angel) I'll take care of you (lend me your hand) Here's what I'll do (my guardian angel) I'll take care of you (if you can) [Verse 2] I was supposed to be on that train, supposed to caught that flight Was there five minutes ago, instead of left, went right All these decisions make a difference Between you and critical condition And a Grim Reaper missing you by inches From up top you helped, he coulda threw you to the flames It's like you in the owner's box, with a view of the game You even helped the streets to cheat Like when De Niro sensed the cops in the trailer cross the street in Heat I know You guiding me by showing me signs And when the violence pops off, I hope I notice in time I know I gotta have a guardian angel To give back or pick the slack up, when God is unable I could use an extra hand Doesn't mean you not here cause I don't see you physically Just your flesh left the land And if I fail, then I'll try again If you watching, hope you forgive and close your eyes when I sin And I know... [Hook] [Verse 3] Ain't no second chance for a first impression Ain't no second chance after you're buried in the dirt for the essence And please, I just wanna know, ask you certain questions Just as you can see from my mistakes it doesn't work guessing And how about Burt, driving from work in Texas Routine stop, the cops wound up searching him for weapons The cops got nervous and shot Burt Now he's in possession of the Earth On his way to church for confession And I know... [Hook]
