Angel, don′t fly so close to me

I'll pull you down eventually

You don′t want to lose those wingsPeople 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

People like me break beautiful things

I give it all up to ease your pain, yeah, I would do that all day

I stepped back from the game to keep you out of harm′s way

Risk it all for the game, but it take more than one person

Two people one 'til I feel the same when you hurtin′

I was still in middle school when Givens fled the whip

Bodies were droppin' before we ever knew ′bout the truck

We gonna be family no matter what way this go, brother

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'll pull you down 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

Generation curses of disloyalty, we breakin′ that

Lost my dawg, 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 feelin′ like blessings

Family all that you got at the end

Hope you get the message

I ain't tryin′ 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, hustle, goals

Heart, mind, body, soul

Watching out for street signs on a narrow road

Heaven at the end, prayin′ 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 wanna 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

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
