Lyrics: Derek Falcones
Music: Derek Falcones
Angel in the room, always laughing real loud
Thought it was jokes, thought we was cool with the crowd
You was smiling back, so we didn’t read the signs
Didn’t see the hurt, yeah we crossed the line
We thought it was a story, thought it wasn’t that deep
Late-night jokes, something said we shoulda kept
Took it too far, yeah we messed up bad
Didn’t mean the pain, never meant you sad
We was moving fast, never stopped to think
Now we looking back like, “Man, what’d we miss?”
Laughing don’t always mean it’s all okay
Sometimes it’s a mask people wear every day
Angel, we sorry, yeah we own that now
Shoulda held you down, we was wilding out
Didn’t mean to hurt you, didn’t mean that vibe
Thought it was jokes ‘cause you laughed that night
Angel, we sorry, yeah we learned our part
Words hit harder than we thought from the start
If we could rewind, we’d change that scene
Real friends protect, not laugh in between
We ain’t proud of it, nah, we admit the flaw
Real ones mess up, real ones still grow
Didn’t think before we spoke out loud
Now we see clear, we ain’t joking now
You trusted us, and we slipped for a sec
That’s on us, yeah, show respect
We ain’t here to excuse, we ain’t here to pretend
Just here to say sorry and make amends
Laughs don’t mean safe, smiles don’t mean fine
We see you now, yeah, reading between the lines
If you felt alone, that’s on us too
We got your back now, that’s something we prove
Angel, we sorry, yeah we own that now
Shoulda held you down, we was wilding out
Didn’t mean to hurt you, didn’t mean that vibe
Thought it was jokes ‘cause you laughed that night
Angel, we sorry, yeah we learned our part
Real talk coming straight from the heart
If we move forward, we do it clean
Real friends grow, know what I mean
This ain’t just lyrics, this real-life talk
We walking it back, yeah we choosing to walk
Angel, you family, don’t forget that truth
We messed up once, but we choosing you
