Shackled Angels by Encr!pted Lyrics
[Verse 1: IshaQ]
They came through the shores(uh)
(Oh)
Our land they adored
Our gold they endorsed
Our fathers and brothers, mothers they stole and they forced
With one hand was a gun and another was a cross
Stranger in my own land
My Clothes from cotton collected by stolen souls from my own past
Rogue from my own path
For the thiefs I attend class
Even with no pluses for my people within his math
Markings on the scrolls against the pharaohs
Inscribed is my legacy but it's held my halo thats in the hands of my
Demon but he is trapped in coliseums off the odds of false gods that
Scheme to see me bleeding
So
Is it worth it?
Have I put enough work in?
Will I ever do enough to get rid of these demons that be lurking
Still I'm searching
If I got rid of my demons I would lose my angels
You wouldn't understand where I came from
[Chorus: IshaQ, Chronicle, B.E.A.R]
I'm trying to break you free
So you can fly with me
Shackled Angels-here to save you (X2)
[Verse 2: Chronicle]:
This instrumentation got me feeling so reminiscent
Back track to a younging with no lyrical precision
Then I started to listen
To her outlandish intuition
Society say she tripping
But she had conjured my feelings
Aspired to be a shady but fell in love with the jigga
I disregarded the figures but studied the A lister
Gave it all of the focus
I want to trigger emotions
Like lyrical hocus pocus
Now they call me the
Distinguished individual
Flow pattern equivocal
But murders in the booth
With every drop of a syllable
Still they remain cynical
Dis belief in the miracle the boojwaze
Restricted by your rituals
Damn
Why you want to put me in the box like
Damn
All I hear is nine to five clocks man I'm through
They trip to clip my wings but i soar right through
Makiavelli gymnastics
I pray I become a classic
[interlude]
I pray I become a (I pray I become)
I pray I become a (I pray I become)
I pray I become a (I pray I become)
I pray I become a classic
(I pray I become classic )
Classic, classic, classic
(x2)
(Hook)
[Narrator 2]
You have a very important role to play
And not just in your life
Not just in the life of your family
Not just in the life of nation
Whichever that is
But the entire universe
And that's not shear hyperbole
I'm not trying to exaggerate things it is true
And what choices you make will determine the kind role you play
You will either be a very successful individual
Or one that hopes to be successful
They came through the shores(uh)
(Oh)
Our land they adored
Our gold they endorsed
Our fathers and brothers, mothers they stole and they forced
With one hand was a gun and another was a cross
