[Intro: XXXTENTACION & Nicole Dollanganger]
I shot an angel with my father's rifle
I should've set it free but I...
Our Father, hallowed be thy Name
I shot an angel with my father's rifle
Thy Kingdom come
I should've set it free but I...

[Verse 1: XXXTENTACION]
Hush little angel, don't say a word
Bottle full of pills, passed out on the curb
Sun brings heat and it just won't snow
Noose like a necklace on my neck, won't go
I was too disloyal 'cause I won't understand
Blade for your cries, count a penny for my sins
Water flies off and the lake don't stream
Wrist down the river, not across, wanna bleed

[Chorus: XXXTENTACION]
Grow your wings, fly away, fly away, fly away
You don't wanna stay, wanna stay, wanna stay
Grow your wings, fly away, fly away, fly away
You don't wanna stay, wanna stay, wanna stay

[Verse 2: XXXTENTACION]
Wake up to your face
I'm straight-forward, fuck a pace
What I wanted just so happened to be you
Couldn't picture being a moment in your shoes
When I think back to the kidney failures
Broken promise, I failed
I won't deny it, I hailed the ground you walk on
Yeah
Heart stops, you walk away
You're good today, you're gone tomorrow
I carry my heart on my face, I'm so depressed
What good is sex?
I pray that you would love me less
And now it's here, hand on my chest

[Chorus: XXXTENTACION]
Grow your wings, fly away, fly away, fly away
You don't wanna stay, wanna stay, wanna stay
Grow your wings, fly away, fly away, fly away
You don't wanna stay, wanna stay, wanna stay

Jahseh Dwayne Ricardo Onfroy (born on January 23, 1998, in Plantation and raised in Lauderhill, Broward County, Florida)—better known by his stage name, XXXTENTACION (pronounced xxx-tenta-ción)—was an established force in the Florida Soundcloud rap scene. He became widely known for his uniquely raw and aggressive approach to music. X claimed that his varied artistic influences range from alternative rock bands such as Nirvana and The Fray to distinguished rappers like Lil Wayne and The Notorious B.I.G.

His breakout hit “Look At Me” was first released on Soundcloud in 2015, and then edited and re-released for his 2017 mixtape Revenge. This scored him an appearance in the XXL Freshman Class of 2017. He took the 10th spot, meaning he was voted in by the fans.

X frequently collaborated with his friend and fellow South Florida rapper, Ski Mask The Slump God. He met Ski in juvenile detention and founded the music collective, Members Only, with him.
