Luyện nghe bài hát Afro Angel

Here I stand you
Brown, of the mountains, colossal as the earth
Wrapped so within my own joy and misery
Feathers of my paralyzed by the distance of my mind
I stand before you, the color of the night
Frozen by the potential of me, an Afro
Uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh

Angel off your pedestal from perchin' above
You on the prowl now, downtown, searchin' for
In all the wrong places, your radio stations
he with new hit single, is tryin' to mingle

Today, he is in town, puttin' it down
You in the car with your friends, followin' my limo
Puttin' a bug in my ear, your 'S' is for free
You'll do for Omar or Phil, bring you to me

And then me, by the devil as well
Hold out my hand as an into my hotel
No to RSVP, place your hand in my palm
As all your girlfriends gettin' jealous, damn she the bomb

to trade your spirit for some crass, whack wage
Somethin' small, somethin' as a pass back stage
But now I lay me, down to
And I the Lord my soul to keep

Angel, born against the world
You don't have to sell soul and throw away your pride
Afro Angel, sent from above
Never forget you are loved, you know that you are loved

Uh, uh, uh, uh, uh
Lil got a gun now, age fifteen
Destined to spend his life inside a it seems
Rage inside, pride, been denied
He can't take it though he gotta it but he ain't learned that yet

Out on the town, reckless abandon he's been before
But now he straps, and no more, high
Flexin' on every guy that walk by but don't pal
'Cuz if the gun from the whiz, Cowardly Lion, got heart now

Let's pull it on a stranger, ahh, fun for the
Surprised when he realized, dude got one too
Smile's upside down now, games so cute
Bobby's a in a headlights, pump, drop it or I'll shoot

Then like a sniper, his rifle, Bobby disobeys his commands
One shot rings out only the stranger stands
of sworn Bobby's blood formed the shape of an angel's wings
But for

Angel, born against the world
You don't have to sell your soul and away your pride
Angel, sent from Heaven above
Never forget that you are loved, you know that you are
You you are loved, yeah

in high school, Tamika was the sweetest, the bomb
Hot to death, in tenth grade a teenage mom
up by some thug named Russ in the drug game
But had the cutest kid you ever

Then all the pressure from her mom, she stepped to
Told him it's either them drugs or us either thugs or us
The ultimatum, continue bein' a thug in the world
Or lovin' your girl

And say God, me witness, no doubt, lovin' ya dear
But to go from dollar 50 gees a to dollar 30 gees a year
That happenin', I guess he wasn't that strong
He came back the next week and the whole family was

Yo, they straight moved away, as little as a word
Well, needless to say, Russ was a little
in a fury put the pressure on her girlfriend Shawn
And like a chef she spilled the beans on where they had gone

Upstate Schenectady, Tamika answered the
It was the last she expected to be
They just stared, he said, "Do you me for me?
You can do the cars, vacations, and jewelry?"

"Down with me? Period, through stress and strife"
She said, "Yeah", he said, "In that would you please be my wife?"
like a sign from the sky, the baby cried
Like an angel sings, I love y'all more anything

Afro Angel, born the world
You don't have to your soul and throw away your pride
Afro Angel, from Heaven above
forget that you are loved, you know that you are loved

Afro Angel, against the world
You have to sell your soul and throw away your pride
Afro Angel, sent from Heaven
Never forget that you are loved, you that you are loved
