[Shai Linne, Evangel, Timothy Brindle - Angelz lyrics]
Yo I just got off from work
Once again my boss is trippin'
He has no idea how often
I thought of quittin'
(I) want to tell him to his face
What he can do with his job
But, I got bills to pay
And it's stupid to rob
Not to mention I'm a Christian
Been saved ten years
Yeah I had my ups and downs but
All in all I'm still here
Yet something's not clear- I need
The ear of my Creator
Because reading the Bible got me
Asking 'why?' like Jada
In my mouth is the worst taste
'cause we're a cursed race
Why did God create Adam and
Eve in the first place?
An omnipotent God is not dependent at all
Can't nobody tell me He couldn't
Have prevented the fall
The Word I read it and saw that God
From the foundation of the earth had already
Chose some for salvation
What's up with the rest? I
Guess they're going to hell
I want to file a complaint but
Got no one to tell
Because the Christians I know
Smile like everything's gravy
But deep down inside
I'm angry at the God who made me
The Word of God is cutting
Me like a poison sword
I'm not sure how much longer
I'll be avoiding girls
I've got too much of the world
In me to enjoy the Lord
And too much of the Lord in
Me to enjoy the world
At that moment I peeped my
Thoughts were growing too deep
I said, "Whatever
I'm smoking some weed and going to sleep"
As I tossed and turned in my slumber
I was lost in fervent wonder
Because I saw a furnace and heard thunder
I couldn't believe it
In front of me now I was seeing
Not one but two mighty, powerful beings
And nothing that man can tell in pictures
Could ever prepare my eyes to
Behold these angelic figures
An angel and a demon, I thought I was dead
But then demon opened his mouth and
This is what he said:
We want to have your faith disturbed- get
Mad and hate to serve your Boss
Behind the scenes we agitate your nerves
With demonic schemes- We'll put holes
'til we took sole control of your good soul
Or gained a foothold
You know the likes of this:
Hell's angels- demons
And not the motorcyclists
I want to bring you down like detox
I've been around for epochs
Please stop asking 'Why' like
That cat from D-block
We learned our lesson- we sinned in His sight
Now we living in fright because
We have spurned His blessings
It's absurd to question- I've
Been in His light
Now I fight His infinite might
With a third of heaven
We assemble- read the Memo- we
Also believe and tremble although
We'll all go to a place for the unlawful
Justly confined with the devil
Where it's custom designed for us rebels
Where some are called "Christian"
They're on a lost mission
'Cause, faith without works needs a mortician
A facade
Because I'm from squad that sees Christ
As the Son of God and
Still won't receive life
Tossed from the heavenlies
A place calm and beautiful
Ecstasy without the street pharmaceuticals
But through God's imputable
Righteousness man gets a life of bliss thanks
To the price of Christ's crucible
Wow, You know story
We'll get the crucial judgment that's
Useful for Jehovah's glory
So while you want to claim
Faith and trust Jesus' namesake
Make it genuine- or you'll get the same fate
I was gripped with fear when
His words hit my ears
I never thought a vision could be this severe
But is this a vision here?
I was more surprised
When right before my eyes
The demon disappeared
I peeped the angel- thought his holiness
Would bite my head off
Instead he tossed me a bright red
Cloth to wipe the sweat off
I've never been so afraid- my heart
It was weak he came closer
Looked me in my eyes and started to speak:
Since man's seldom seeing
The truth he can't tell- so
Hear from this angelic being
A divine messenger
And I don't resemble chubby babies with
Wings That's a lying replica
I'm a ministering spirit who serves Christ
And those who will inherit eternal life
I've seen all the days of history
Yet I'm still gazing into
This amazing mystery
That God would make humans from dirt
And after removing their curse make
Them a beautiful Church
Have you seen in the heavens
To behold His Son
In the immediate presence of the Holy One?
Nah, be thankful kid
Cause sinful humans are unable to see
His glorious face and live
And if you're in terror when seeing me
How much more will you be scared
Of the Deity who created me?
That's why Cherubim and Seraphim
Wouldn't dare to sin
'Cause they're scared of Him after
Peering at His face
And no angel has experienced grace
And if I sinned, He wouldn't have saved me
Consider His goodness, you shouldn't be angry
You've lived violently with pride and greed
I've lived entirely with piety
In compliancy to His dynasty
Yet no Messiah has ever died for me
See, I'm right with God 'cause I'm sinless
Men are right with God from forgiveness
I've been shouting His praises
For thousands of ages
I bow in amazement at His power and patience
Yet I've encountered He's gracious
Instead of Him devouring pagans
He's vowing to save them
Italians and Asians, bountiful nations
Will worship with me though I
Never doubted His cadence
And don't be mad at Him because Adam sinned
Us angels bugged out He didn't smash him then
Yeah it's true He allowed the fall of man
But He used it now to exalt the Lamb
The Lord, who's wise
Permit's existence of sin
To be glorified in His forgiveness to men
So listen
My friend- your complaints are many
If anything, be amazed that He is saving any
Yeah you confess the Lord
But those who truly profess are
Pure- Make your election sure
Are you saved or not? You're
Faced with a choice
Please repent to make us angels rejoice
Are you saved or not? You're
Faced with a choice
So please, repent to make us angels rejoice
The angel bounced- I immediately
Fell on my face
Because I knew God had sent him to
Me to tell of His grace
I was swelling with praise- I said
"Lord have mercy on me!
You sent your elect angel and one
That You cursed to warn me"
My murmurs were persistent- the
Nerve of this Christian!
Served with this vision even though
Your Word is sufficient
I deserve to be loathed
For my sinful distrust
And like Your servant Job I
Repent in the dust
Forgive me for what's occurred in the dark
My doubt and my sin go hand in
Hand like lovebirds in a park
What I was speaking was
Hazardous and equally blasphemous
Your glory's more important
Than creaturely happiness
Jesus you're fabulous! I cling to Your
Cross to have my sin tossed
Like that fallen angel I
Should have been lost alarm clock went off
It's just a dream- tempted to doubt
Looked on my pillow- saw a bright red cloth
