A-Razumovsky - AngelFall
Verse 1 Standing on the block where my mama used to pray (Lord have mercy) Watching all these young cats throw their lives away But I ain't here to preach, nah, I'm here to speak the truth About the pain that's buried deep inside this concrete booth They call me crazy when I talk about redemption (Yeah, yeah) But I seen angels fall and devils seek protection In these streets where hope dies slow like cancer And every question that we ask ain't got no answer Chorus I'm a corner prophet with a broken voice (Sing it loud now) Telling stories 'bout the kids who had no choice (Had no choice) From the gutter to the grave, we all the same (All the same) Just some lost souls looking for somebody to blame Verse 2 Fifteen years old with a pistol in his waistband (Goddamn) Thinking that respect comes from the fear in other man's hands But I remember when he used to sing in Sunday service Now he's out here thinking life ain't got no purpose Seen his pops get locked up when he was just eleven (Locked up) Mama working double shifts, praying he get to heaven But these streets got a way of calling young blood And once you in the game, it's hard to rise above the flood Pre-Chorus Tell me what you gonna do (What you gonna do) When the reaper comes for you (Comes for you) And all that tough talk don't mean nothing When your time is through Chorus I'm a corner prophet with a broken voice (Sing it loud now) Telling stories 'bout the kids who had no choice (Had no choice) From the gutter to the grave, we all the same (All the same) Just some lost souls looking for somebody to blame Bridge (Hallelujah, hallelujah) Can I get a witness for the fallen ones (Testify) Who never got to see another rising sun (Hallelujah, hallelujah) In these streets where love gets murdered every day (Every day) And the only salvation is to find another way Verse 3 So I stand on this corner like a preacher without a church (Without a church) Watching all these families put their babies in the dirt And I wonder if my words can penetrate the pain Or if I'm just another voice crying out in vain But maybe if one kid hears what I'm trying to say (Just one) Maybe he'll choose books instead of choosing to spray 'Cause we all got potential buried underneath the hate And sometimes all it takes is someone to illuminate Outro (Hallelujah, hallelujah) Corner prophet with a message and a prayer (And a prayer) For every soul that's lost out there (Out there) In the darkness of despair (Hallelujah, hallelujah) Can you hear me? Do you care? (Do you care?)
