Mini-critique N°169

Paroles :

I confess I am lost

In the age of the social

On our knees, take a test

To be lovin' and grateful

Shots were fired on the street

By the church where we used to meet

Angel down, angel down

But the people just stood around

I'm a believer, it's a trial

Foolish and weaker, oh, oh, oh

I'd rather save an angel down

I'm a believer, it's chaos

Where are our leaders? Oh, oh, oh

I'd rather save an angel down

Doesn't everyone belong

In the arms of the sacred?

Why do we pretend we're wrong?

Has our young courage faded?

Shots were fired on the street

By the church where we used to meet

Angel down, angel down

Why do people just stand around?

I'm a believer, it's a trial

Foolish and weaker, oh, oh, oh

I'd rather save an angel down

I'm a believer, it's chaos

Where are our leaders? Oh, oh, oh

I'd rather save an angel down

Hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo, hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo

Hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo, hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo

Hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo, hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo

Hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo, hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo

I'm a believer, it's a trial

Foolish and weaker, oh, oh, oh

I'd rather save an angel down

I'm a believer, it's chaos

Where are our leaders? Oh, oh, oh

I'd rather save an angel down

Save that angel

Catch that angel

Save that angel

Catch that angel

Save that angel

Catch that angel

Save that angel

Catch that angel

Catch that angel

Selon Internet, cette chanson, évoque le sujet des fusillades contre les afro-américains, est en partie dédiée à Trayvon Martin, un jeune noir américain de 17 ans, abattu tristement par balles.
