ooh
Ohh
Here i stand before you - brown
Color of the mountains
Colossal as the earth
Wrapped so deliciously within my own joy and misery
feathers of my wings paralyzed by the distance of my mind
Here i stand before you
The color of the night
frozen by the potential of me
Uh
Uh
Uh
Uh
Uh-uh-uh-uh-uh an afro angel
Afro angel off your pedestal from perchin above
You on the prowl now
Downtown
Searchin for love
In all the wrong places
Outside your radio stations
Hopin he with new hit single
Is tryin to mingle
Today
He is in your town
Puttin it down
You in the car with your friends
followin my limo around
Puttin a bug in my boys ear
Your "s" is for free
Youll do anything for omar or phil
Bring you to me
And then me
Hypnotized by the devil as well
Hold out my hand as an invitation into my hotel
No need to rsvp
Place your hand in my palm
As all your girlfriends getting jealous
Damn she landed the bomb
Willing to trade your spirit for some crass
Whack wage
Something small
Something simple as a pass back stage
But now i lay me
Down to creep
And i - pray the lord my soul to keep
Chorus
Afro angel
Born against the world
You dont have to sell your soul and throw away your pride
Afro angel
Sent from heaven above
Never forget that you are loved
You know that you are loved
Lil bobby got a gun now
Age fifteen
Destined to spend his life inside a cage it seems
Rage inside
Pride
Been denied respect
He cant take it though he gotta earn it
But he aint learned that yet
Out on the town
Reckless abandon hes been bullied before
But now he straps
And no more
Attitude high
flexin on every guy that walk by
But dont start pal
Cuz if the gun came from the whiz
Cowardly lion
Got heart now
Lets pull it on a stranger
Ahh
fun for the crew
Surprised when he realized
Damn dude got one too
Smiles upside down now
Games aint so cute
Bobbys a deer in a headlights
Pump
Drop it or ill shoot
Then like a sniper
Cleanin his rifle
Bobby disobeys his commands
One shot rings out gunshot then only the stranger stands
Could of sworn bobbys blood formed the shape of an angels wings
But for what?
Chorus
Afro angel
Born against the world
You dont have to sell your soul and throw away your pride
Afro angel
Sent from heaven above
Never forget that you are loved
You know that you are loved
Back in high school
Tamika was the sweetest
The bomb
Hot to death
Though in tenth grade a teenage mom
Knocked up by some thug named russ in the drug game
But had the cutest kid you ever seen
Then all the pressure from her mom
She stepped to russ
Told him its either them drugs or us
Either them thugs or us
The ultimatum
Either continue bein a thug in the world
Or start lovin your girl
And say god
Bear me witness
No doubt
Lovin ya dear
But to go from $50 gees a week to $30 gees a year
That aint happenin
I guess he wasnt that strong
He came back the next week
And the whole family was gone
Yo they straight moved away
Without as little as a word
Well
Needless to say
Russ was a little perturbed
Then in a fury put the pressure on her girlfriend shawn
And like a clumsy chef she spilled the beans on where they had gone
Upstate schenectady
Tamika answered the door
It was the last person she expected to be
They just stared
He said you love me for me?
You can do without the cars
Vacations
And jewelry?
Down with me?
Period
Through lifes stress and strife
She said
Yeah
He said in that case
Would you please be my wife?
Then like a sign from the sky
The baby cried
Like an angel sings
I love yall more than anything
Chorus
Afro angel
Born against the world
You dont have to sell your soul and throw away your pride
Afro angel
Sent from heaven above
Never forget that you are loved
You know that you are loved
Repeat chorus
