| [00:01.76] | afro angel |
| [00:03.09] | |
| [00:03.65] | Here I stand before you - brown. |
| [00:06.34] | Color of the mountains |
| [00:08.30] | Colossal as the earth |
| [00:09.74] | Wrapped so deliciously within my own joy and misery |
| [00:13.47] | Feathers of my wings paralyzed by the distance of my mind |
| [00:18.17] | Here I stand before you, the color of the night |
| [00:21.61] | Frozen by the potential of me |
| [00:24.17] | (Uh, uh, uh, uh, uh-uh-uh-uh-uh) An Afro Angel |
| [00:28.07] | |
| [00:29.22] | Afro Angel off your pedestal from perchin above |
| [00:32.19] | You on the prowl now, downtown, searchin for love |
| [00:35.11] | In all the wrong places, outside your radio stations |
| [00:38.24] | Hopin he with new hit single, is tryin to mingle |
| [00:41.54] | Today, he is in your town, puttin it down |
| [00:43.27] | You in the car with your friends, followin my limo around |
| [00:46.95] | Puttin a bug in my boy's ear, your "S" is for free |
| [00:49.62] | You'll do anything for Omar or Phil, bring you to me |
| [00:52.42] | And then me, hypnotized by the devil as well |
| [00:55.43] | Hold out my hand as an invitation into my hotel |
| [00:58.20] | No need to RSVP, place your hand in my palm |
| [01:01.12] | As all your girlfriends getting jealous, damn she landed the bomb |
| [01:03.85] | Willing to trade your spirit for some crass, whack wage |
| [01:08.51] | Something small, something simple as a pass back stage |
| [01:11.01] | But now I lay me, down to creep |
| [01:13.15] | And I - pray the Lord my soul to keep |
| [01:15.92] | Afro Angel, born against the world |
| [01:21.55] | You don't have to sell your soul and throw away your pride |
| [01:26.73] | Afro Angel, sent from heaven above |
| [01:33.39] | Never forget that you are loved |
| [01:38.27] | You know that you are loved |
| [01:41.23] | |
| [01:44.39] | Lil Bobby got a gun now, age fifteen |
| [01:48.14] | Destined to spend his life inside a cage it seems |
| [01:51.14] | Rage inside, pride, been denied respect |
| [01:53.88] | He can't take it though he gotta earn it |
| [01:55.70] | But he ain't learned that yet |
| [01:57.14] | Out on the town, reckless abandon he's been bullied before |
| [02:00.04] | But now he straps, and no more |
| [02:01.97] | Attitude high |
| [02:03.18] | Flexin on every guy that walk by |
| [02:04.88] | But don't start pal |
| [02:06.02] | Cuz if the gun came from the whiz, Cowardly Lion, got heart now |
| [02:08.53] | Let's pull it on a stranger |
| [02:10.28] | Ahh, fun for the crew |
| [02:12.07] | Surprised when he realized, damn dude got one too |
| [02:14.03] | Smile's upside down now, games ain't so cute |
| [02:17.51] | Bobby's a deer in a headlights |
| [02:19.04] | Pump, drop it or I'll shoot |
| [02:20.28] | Then like a sniper, cleanin his rifle, Bobby disobeys his commands |
| [02:23.88] | One shot rings out (gunshot) then only the stranger stands |
| [02:26.74] | Could of sworn Bobby's blood formed the shape of an angel's wings |
| [02:30.09] | But for what? |
| [02:32.98] | Afro Angel, born against the world |
| [02:37.14] | You don't have to sell your soul and throw away your pride |
| [02:42.06] | Afro Angel, sent from heaven above |
| [02:49.19] | Never forget that you are loved |
| [02:53.56] | You know that you are loved |
| [03:00.61] | Back in high school, Tamika was the sweetest, the bomb |
| [03:04.09] | Hot to death, though in tenth grade a teenage mom |
| [03:06.97] | Knocked up by some thug named Russ in the drug game |
| [03:10.24] | But had the cutest kid you ever seen |
| [03:12.45] | Then all the pressure from her mom |
| [03:14.47] | She stepped to Russ |
| [03:15.61] | Told him it's either them drugs or us |
| [03:17.58] | Either them thugs or us |
| [03:19.26] | The ultimatum, either continue bein a thug in the world |
| [03:22.95] | Or start lovin your girl |
| [03:24.29] | And say God, bear me witness, no doubt, lovin ya dear |
| [03:27.27] | But to go from $50 Gees a week to $30 Gees a year |
| [03:30.43] | That ain't happenin |
| [03:31.77] | I guess he wasn't that strong |
| [03:33.29] | He came back the next week, and the whole family was gone |
| [03:35.98] | Yo they straight moved away, without as little as a word |
| [03:38.93] | Well, needless to say, Russ was a little perturbed |
| [03:41.96] | Then in a fury put the pressure on her girlfriend Shawn |
| [03:44.86] | And like a clumsy chef she spilled the beans on where they had gone |
| [03:47.99] | Upstate Schenectady, |
| [03:49.88] | Tamika answered the door |
| [03:51.43] | It was the last person she expected to be |
| [03:53.42] | They just stared |
| [03:54.81] | He said you love me for me? |
| [03:56.52] | You can do without the cars, vacations, and jewelry? |
| [03:59.75] | Down with me? Period. |
| [04:01.40] | Through life's stress and strife |
| [04:02.72] | She said, Yeah, He said in that case |
| [04:04.27] | Would you please be my wife? |
| [04:05.41] | Then like a sign from the sky, the baby cried |
| [04:07.49] | Like an angel sings |
| [04:09.13] | I love y'all more than anything |
| [04:11.13] | Afro Angel, born against the world |
| [04:17.24] | You don't have to sell your soul and throw away your pride |
