So Fresh Lyrics

Will Smith

Ooh ohhHere I stand before you brownColor of the mountainsColossal as the earthWrapped so deliciously within my own joy and miseryFeathers of my wings paralyzed by the distance of my mindHere I stand before you the color of the nightFrozen by the potential of meUh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh an afro angelAfro angel off your pedestal from perchin aboveYou on the prowl now downtown searchin for loveIn all the wrong places outside your radio stationsHopin he with new hit single is tryin to mingleToday he is in your town puttin it downYou in the car with your friends followin my limo aroundPuttin a bug in my boy's ear your s is for freeYou'll do anything for omar or phil bring you to meAnd then me hypnotized by the devil as wellHold out my hand as an invitation into my hotelNo need to rsvp place your hand in my palmAs all your girlfriends getting jealous damn she landed the bombWilling to trade your spirit for some crass whack wageSomething small something simple as a pass back stageBut now I lay me down to creepAnd I pray the lord my soul to keepChorusAfro angel born against the worldYou don't have to sell your soul and throw away your prideAfro angel sent from heaven aboveNever forget that you are lovedYou know that you are lovedLil bobby got a gun now age fifteenDestined to spend his life inside a cage it seemsRage inside pride been denied respectHe can't take it though he gotta earn itBut he ain't learned that yetOut on the town reckless abandon he's been bullied beforeBut now he straps and no moreAttitude highFlexin on every guy that walk byBut don't start palCuz if the gun came from the whiz cowardly lion got heart nowLet's pull it on a strangerAhh fun for the crewSurprised when he realized damn dude got one tooSmile's upside down now games ain't so cuteBobby's a deer in a headlightsPump drop it or I'll shootThen like a sniper cleanin his rifle bobby disobeys his commandsOne shot rings out gunshot then only the stranger standsCould of sworn bobby's blood formed the shape of an angel's wingsBut for whatChorusAfro angel born against the worldYou don't have to sell your soul and throw away your prideAfro angel sent from heaven aboveNever forget that you are lovedYou know that you are lovedBack in high school tamika was the sweetest the bombHot to death though in tenth grade a teenage momKnocked up by some thug named russ in the drug gameBut had the cutest kid you ever seenThen all the pressure from her momShe stepped to russTold him it's either them drugs or usEither them thugs or usThe ultimatum either continue bein a thug in the worldOr start lovin your girlAnd say God bear me witness no doubt lovin ya dearBut to go from 50 gees a week to 30 gees a yearThat ain't happeninI guess he wasn't that strongHe came back the next week and the whole family was goneYo they straight moved away without as little as a wordWell needless to say russ was a little perturbedThen in a fury put the pressure on her girlfriend shawnAnd like a clumsy chef she spilled the beans on where they had goneUpstate schenectadyTamika answered the doorIt was the last person she expected to beThey just staredHe said you love me for meYou can do without the cars vacations and jewelryDown with mePeriodThrough life's stress and strifeShe said yeah he said in that caseWould you please be my wifeThen like a sign from the sky the baby criedLike an angel singsI love y'all more than anythingChorusAfro angel born against the worldYou don't have to sell your soul and throw away your prideAfro angel sent from heaven aboveNever forget that you are lovedYou know that you are lovedRepeat chorus
