I heard you had a voice like an angelI heard a strange taleAbout a saint that fellMusic became jailThese bars I hear you rapped in 'emWove in the beatsLike the clothing of sheepWolves tracks - spin 'emDJs, CDsc-notesg's thrown on d'swe'll be kings like T.I hopeI heard you even sang when you spokeAnd the emotion you evoked got you chokedWhen your beauty struck a vocal chord brokeBoatless dove overboardLook upon the surfaceCaught your reflection before the Lord'sI heard you had a voice like an angelStrange thoughYou were blinded by the lightShining from your own haloFell offSort like a rainbow when heaven watchedYour faint glow fade slowI heard you had a voice like an angel...Letras de cancionesI heard that fame's a killer that can murder greatPrinces like Kurt Cobain singing Purple RainFrom a distanceHope home ain't a virtual gameNor this cursed place earthWhere the dollars and the karma don't circulateThe world's a stageAnd you know this play wellGee I bet you even know how it ends, pray tellHad a voice like an angel, now you score the drama scenesThe comedy's the factWe enact what you want to beHad some old songs still stuck in your memoryDistorted thoughSo you sort of re-assembled melodiesAnd fine-tune and turned em into single after singleIn this industry you built so sinfully simple forYou to write cuz, a song is what your life wasThe destiny of stars is their light mustFight duskWith sparks of brilliance to ignite usAnd of all the billions of starsYou were by far the brightestI heard you had a voice like an angelNow it's just a light hush...Now you keep everyone's eyes on charts and schedulesAnd the trends trying to stack gold bars and medalsThey want vessels void and dark as spaceFools wanna make stars instead of music that's smart or specialBecause art at a level that's real can be harder to peddleBusiness prefers a market that settles for second rateKill the true artists, martyr the rebelsThat's the system and it's straight from the heart of the devilSee merchants of dreams sold to souls eyes-wide shutPassing the buck to purchase a pass to buy stuffWorking in this circus get hired upTo walk over have-(k)nots on a tight ropeTied-up in my gutIt's a delicate balanceDeveloping talentInto persons that we worshipYo it's a hell of a challengeI heard you had a voice like an angelAnd don't really sing no moreBut you still running the game soIf you don't behave like themThey call us crazyAnd if you wont slave for themThey call us lazyLately I've started to see why you hate meHearing this voice it must be painfulTo the ears when for yearsYou had a voice like an angelIf you don't behave as themThey call you crazyAnd if you won't slave for themThey call you lazyWell I say...They wanna take your mindTurn it into a prisonLock you insideThen they call that livingWell I say...I heard you had a voice like an angel...Smile for the cameraSmile for the cameraWhile they take your childrenSmile for the cameraWhile we rape your womenSmile for the cameraWhile we make our millionsSmile for the cameraWhile we make our buildingsSmile for the cameraSmile for the cameraSmile for the camera...
