Archangel by Andradece Lyrics
[Verse 1]
As a toddler, my innocent mind would wonder
How come a mammal wouldn't drink when I led it to water?
But wisdom, it don't move quickly through others
It's put through the wringer 'cuz I got the middle finger whenever I offered
I've been rejected, they spit me out then watch me fetch it
They play with my mind till my mind was finished being molested
It's why I'm restless, my doctor got several odd guesses and not to mention my love affair with antidepressants
"So where's your God at now?" That tone is condescending
You need to watch your mouth and find out with whom you're messing with
And I bet your happiness relies on a fix, temporary paralysis 'cuz my God exists
[Chorus]
You fight
You attack
You protect
You know the ropes, so where do I go?
You fight
You uplift
And You defend
Show me steps like you taught your Archangel
[Bridge]
(You taught me)
Like you taught your archangel
[Verse 2]
It’s exhausting
Being held hostage
It's oddly nostalgic
And I’m on the edge
Playing victim since the moment you called me
That family got a hate for me
'cuz you made it seem
Like I got O.C.D. when you dated me
I pay to see you
For once I’m allowed to just talk
You shorted circuits
You flamed a furnace
You changed the current like you don’t know how to just stop
(listen)
And I wanna lead us
'cuz together we a toxic adhesive
Teach me to lead
Like you taught your angels to fight those demons
God you have mercy
And lately, I been acting unworthy
Topic of controversy
Comments and critics be hurting
They hang me up In front of thousands of people to watch
All eyes on me Like the same way I listened to Pac
They try to censor me and paint me as the villain with gloss
Go ahead and judge me; I won’t move like the value of stock
(listen)
'Cuz I’m fine with it, Build a wall and I’ll Just keep climbing it
And hope you vibe with it While dialing my psychiatrist
[Chorus]
You fight (God you fight)
You attack
You protect (you protect)
You know the ropes, so where do I go?
You fight (God you fight)
You uplift
And You defend
Show me steps, Like you taught your Archangel
You fight (God you fight)
You attack
You protect (you protect me Lord)
You know the ropes, so where do I go?
You fight (God you fight)
You uplift
And You defend
Show me steps, like you taught your Archangel
[Outro]
Yeah you fight for me
God you fight for me yeah
God you fight for me yeah
I know you fight for me
I know you do, so teach me, yeah
As a toddler, my innocent mind would wonder
How come a mammal wouldn't drink when I led it to water?
