Chorus

Girl you’re my angel, you’re my darling angel

Closer than my peeps you are to me ,baby

Shorty you’re my angel, you’re my darling angel

Girl you are my friend when I’m in need ,lady 

Verse 1

Life a one big party when you’re still young

But who’s gonna have your back when it all done

It’s all good when you live to have pure fun

Can’t be a fool son

What about the long run

Looking back shorty always a mention

Say me not giving her much attention

She was there through mi incarceration

Wanna show the nation

My appreciation

Chorus

Verse 2

You’re a queen and that’s how you should be treated

Though you never get the loving that you needed

Coulda left but I called and you heeded

Begged and I pleaded

Mission completed

A no she that I and I a dis the program

Not the type to mess around with your emotions

But the feeling that I have for you are so strong

Been together so long

This could never be wrong.

Chorus

Bridge

Girl in-spite of my behavior , you’re my savior

Must be sent from up above

You appear to me so tender I surrender

Thanks for giving me your love. ( Repeat )

Repeat 1st verse & Chorus
