Angel

Little Simz

Never cared about bein' immortalised
How can I stand with the opps and not with the tribe?
They sell you a dream and they want you to glorify
Got a rude awakenin', by ignorin', I pull the signs

Why did I give you the keys to authorize shit on my behalf?
Now, I'm scarred and mortified
What did I expect from those livin' the corporate life?
Unfortunately, honesty isn't normalized

Had to get my shit together and get organized
If your hand's in my pockets, I'm callin' up all the guys
Though, I don't wanna be the reason of more divide
Guess that's in my nature of bein' a water sign

I'm sort of like, nothing is makin' sense in my awkward mind
Give me your ears and let me feel the night
Shootin' in the dark, guess I never saw the light
Revoke access, I'm runnin' it back, yes

Missin' opportunities, I wish I was that pressed
Yeah, I say that shit with my damn chest
You need me and you feel the loss of my absence
The novelty wears oft after a few years

After a few tears from challengin' new fears
Learnin' everything I didn't on the come up
We was too busy makin' music till the Sun up
Every day through the summer

Didn't learn the business, and now, I'm duckin' for cover
What a fuck up
Might just leave a damn taste thinkin' I'm a sucker
Come up out my damn face, nigga, did I stutter?

It's gon' be a sad case if you see my brothers
I can see how an artist can get tainted, frustrated
They don't care if your mental is on the brink of somethin' dark
As long as your cuttin' somebody's pay slip

And sendin' their kids to private school in a spaceship
Yeah, I refuse to be on a slave ship
Give me all my masters and lower your wages
Huh, what I'm bringin' to the table is more than a feast

For the belly of the beast
Didn't know I'm droppin' somethin' heavy for the streets
Fuck the politics, I'm goin' Meghan on you neeks
I need the best seats in the house

When the truth unfolds, it's gonna be one hell of a scene
Harry listenin' from Heaven on repeat
He was backin' it when nobody believed
Play the game, play the game: Is what they scream

You can play the game, I don't see the need, no
Feel so alive, I woke up and I prayed for a sign
I know good things take time
God sent me you as an angel

When you're alone, the little thoughts that nobody knows
Hardest thing to do was stay strong
I knew I needed an angel
My Saturn return in effect

Life doesn't come with presets
My frequency's seamless
They want you give more, expect you to dream less
Got me confessin' all my secrets

You ain't the only one under deep stress
Please, don't take my kindness for a weakness
Get G-checked for your disrespect
Perception and observation is clinical

More headspace, I've been shavin' off my occipital
They say: You can't hate who you don't love
And they say: Love is unconditional
I'm ready to do the unthinkable

Fuck rules and everything that's traditional
Giving your heart to someone might just leave you in a somethin', somethin'
Feel so alive, I woke up and I prayed for a sign
I know good things take time

God sent me you as an angel
When you're alone, the little thoughts that nobody knows
Hardest thing to do was stay strong
I knew I needed an angel

An angel
How you go against the same system you were colonized by?
Brother, your whole ting compromised
Havin' these conversations for self and nobody else

Thinkin' they don't understand my thinkin' when I socialize
I need an angel with me for armor
I need accountability, partner
I know that all these blessings are karma

I need a fire lit by the seaside
Purest manuka up in my beehive
Give me a second, and let the beat ride
Is there a golden key to the sweet life?

I don't know what's got into me
But, at least I'm makin' time for self and not others when I got free time
New woman, don't tell me I shouldn't just because you couldn't
They say: Don't you give up too much of the truth to 'em

Well, I got nine more songs in the boot for 'em
Figure this is the moment, I gotta speak now
Head high, back straight, feet down
Posture goin' crazy

Had to stand tall while they were tryin' to break me
Fuck that, you niggas didn't make me
And, I say you will never infiltrate me
Dim my light? Are you crazy?

Yo, we two worlds apart, you know, lady, lady, lady
Flo and I comin' like DeNiro with Scorsese
Stop tryin' to box me, and there's no way you can place me
Hit 'em with a classic then I got a little lazy

Had to get a pen when I remembered that I'm JAY-Z
Had to cut you off because I found out you are snakey
I got angels guidin' my steps, guardin' my life from now until death
Perspective is everything and I wonder what they see

Hurt people, hurt people, I get it, but, don't play me
My Saturn return in effect
Life doesn't come with presets
My frequency's seamless

So, please don't take my kindness for a weakness
'Cause I got angels
