Angel, don't fly so close to me
I'II pull you down eventually
You don't wanna lose those wings
People like me break beautiful things
Angel, don't fly so close to me
I'm what you want, and what you need
You don't wanna lose those wings
People like me break beautiful things
I give it all up to ease your pain, yeah, I would do that all day
I step back from the game and keep you out of harm's way
Would risk it all for the game, but it take more than one person
Two people, one 'til I feel the same way you hurtin'
I was still in middle school when givens had flipped the wip
Bodies was droppin' before we ever knew 'bout the drip
We gon' be family no matter what way this go, bruh
From the ugly corner where everybody betray each other
I let you hang in the jets
I let you bang with my set
Put you before my own flesh
Like why'd I ever do that
Me and the streets got soul ties
The devil on my shoulder he whisper, but I told him
Angel, don't fly so close to me
I'II pull you down eventually
You don't wanna lose those wings
People like me break beautiful things
Angel, don't fly so close to me
I'm what you want, and what you need
You don't wanna lose those wings
People like me break beautiful things
Generation curses of disloyalty, we breaking that
Lost my dog Got him back, took him in we shakin' back
Struggle never broke us, it just made us who we is
Losses taught a lot of lessons, made the wins feeling like blessings
Family all that you got at the end, hope you get the message
I ain't trying to make it without you, but if I got to then I got you
This ain't about me, it's about the whole cake
We can take a slice on a different day, just keep your plate
God, family, money, goals, heart, mind, body, soul
Watching out for street signs on a narrow road
Heaven at the end praying for the lost souls with my angels
Don't you know, don't you know, don't you know, don't you know?
I don't want to let you down
No, I'll never be perfect
Never want to see you hurtin'
You should go, you should go
Get away fast a hundred on the dash tonight
Wish it didn't have to be this way
Angel, don't fly so close to me (my angel, don't close to me)
I'll pull you down eventually (eventually)
You don't want to lose those wings
People like me break beautiful things
Angel, don't fly so close to me
I'm what you want, not what you need
You don't want to lose those wings (lose those wings)
People like me break beautiful things
