Fallen Stars Flying (from "Between The World And Me" soundtrack)

Heavy gold chains and velours, body language boss
On this highly dangerous course between the streets and up north
Carti' specs, pray the angels direct my walk
I just talked with big homie up in federal court
He was double-crossed, nowadays staying real is a loss
'Cause cowards prey on niggas with good hearts
So I pray for them, they violate this way
I got the K for them, but I refrain from doing Shaitan's work
We doing wrong, taking our face off Earth
Black victory, I envision Tiffany blue coupes
Angels pop out the hood like "poof," black youth
What's the science? Man, we the fallen stars flying

Black youth, flying, fallen stars
Black youth, fly-flying, fallen stars flying
Angels pop out the hood like "poof"
Now-nowadays staying real is a loss (So I pray for them)
Black youth, flying, fallen stars
Black youth, fly-flying, fallen stars, flying
Black youth (Flying high), fallen stars flying
Angels pop out the hood like "poof" (So I pray for them)

When you a strong, stand-tall soldier
They lean on you, expecting you not to fall over
Like you never feel pressure, like you made of steel
So I absorb your pain, I like to see you chill
But the shit start weighing on me
Lifting you up without a day off, homie
It's getting hard, plus the haters on me
I met a young queen, the little girl asked for my autograph
She said my verse from "Black Girl Lost" made her find her way
She said she got tatted wings on her back
So when she want she can fly away

Black youth, flying, fallen stars
Black youth, fly-flying, fallen stars flying
Angels pop out the hood like "poof"
Now-nowadays staying real is a loss (So I pray for them)
Black youth, flying, fallen stars
Black youth, fly-flying, fallen stars, flying
Black youth (Flying high), fallen stars flying
Angels pop out the hood like "poof" (So I pray for them)

Pray for them
Pray for them
Pray for them
Pray for them

Black youth
Fallen stars flying
Angels pop out the hood like "poof"
No-nowadays staying real is a loss (So I pray for them)
Black youth, fallen stars
Black youth, fallen stars
Black youth, flying high
Angels pop out the hood like "poof" (So I pray for them)
