Lyrics
HOOK:
Angel... Angel...
Youre my Angel... Angel...
I was so scared and so afraid
What mistake had I made
I still think that that night…
You were the first thing I’ve done right…
Didn’t think the Lord was listening those nights I was kneeling
And I still just cant seem to… shake the feeling
That he put me eXactly where I needed to be
He gave me love when he planted that seed in me
Because you... you needed me... when I thought that I was nothin
When I thought I HAD nothin, you showed me I had LOVE and
That's the greatest thing that one can even HAVE to give
And I gave it all to YOU, you were the reason I lived
You were the reason I could laugh
You were the reason I could smile
All the joy in the world
Was placed into ONE CHILD...
Was placed into ONE SEED... Was placed into ONE SOUL
And you gave it to ME... and you made me WHOLE
Even from the very start, you made all the pain go…
And you'll always be my heart, bcuz youre mommys little angel
HOOK
My belly began to swell, my feet began to hurt
But I couldn’t complain bcuz my life had met its worth
Went to the o-b-g-y-n to get the ultrasound
He said youre havin a girl, and I was so damn proud
Its my heart that he's testin
My strength that's in question
5 months after conception
I KNEW you were a blessing
Not a hindrance like I had thought initially
There was someone else in this world that would live for me
That COULD live for me... when I thought that I couldn't
Someone who would love me when I knew that I wouldn't
So a month later when I started having contractions
I couldn’t understand, I didn’t know what was happenin
They said its too early, and that's its gonna be tough
They said we'll try and save her, I said tryings not enough
After that everything just sounded like nonsense
then I felt peace; and then I fell unconscious...
HOOK
Now youre not 2 years old
And youre not here to hold
Not taking your first steps
Not in your cradle
Im not givin you baths
Bein soaked by your splash
Im not ticklin your tummy
While im warmed by your laugh
Youre not goin to preschool…on your first day
Youre not blowin out candles on your birthday cake
Youre not getting your first kiss, or on your first date
Youre not chillin with your friends, youre not coming in late
Youre not goin to the Mosque, youre not going to college
Youre not stayin up all night... conversin the knowledge
Not movin out the house, not getting engaged
Not havin a big wedding while im singin on stage
Not askin my advice when things get blown out
Youre not cussin me out... or claimin that you grown now
But youre always in my heart although youre not in this world
You always were and always will be mommys little girl
HOOK to end...
