There's an angel in the sky watchin' over me

There's an angel in the sky watchin' over me



They say it's always darkest before the dawn

And that you don't know what you got until it's gone

I thought I knew what I had but I was wrong

And that's why I gots to write this song

Now, come on, now, come on



Say man, I thought it would've been a long time for us

And many more years on the grind for us

I thought the future held a lot for us both and it was brighter

We were super tight but finna be super tighter



I guess I just assumed we had more time for us

To make more music and write more rhymes

But never in my life could I ever have seen

That I would ever have to lose the other half of my team



And take away the glitter the gold and the gleam

Say man, I wonder to myself what does it all really mean?

Nothing without the people you love, say man I miss my brother

But I know he's looking down from above and there's an angel



There's an angel in the sky watchin' over me

There's an angel in the sky watchin' over me



It all began on Shreveport Ave sittin' off in the den

Making beats and puttin' paper to pen

We was determined to win and you couldn't tell us different

Mama West was cool with it but Monroe kept trippin'



It seems just like yesterday sometime

Sittin' in your bedroom writing dumb rhymes

Man, you makin' beats on the Ensoniq

And we was smokin' dirt weed â€~cause it wasn't no chronic



I still remember when we started the crew

It was me, Mitchell Queen, Jamal Jackson and you

Started out as 4BM but then we ended with two

That's when we introduced the world to the U



To the G to the K, Underground Kings, DJ Byrd

Pimp C and Bun B we kept it G, say word

Who would'a known back in '92, in 2008 I'd have to

Write this song sayin', ‽I miss youâ€Â but it's true



There's an angel in the sky watchin' over me

There's an angel in the sky watchin' over me



Just for the record let me go ahead and say

I love my brother Pimp C and man, I miss him everyday

Yeah, my heart still hurts and the pain's still fresh

But I'ma put God first to keep that pressure off my chest



And remind me that I'm blessed to have had him as a friend

A ride or die homie that was with me till the end

Real talk man, we was closer than kin

And I know that I'll never have a partner like that again



So Chad Butler I just want you to know

I keep your memory close, I'm never lettin' it go

And they gon' always remember that you was here, mayne

â€~Cause I'ma make 'em remember, that's why I'm here, mayne



Yeah, it's still hard and I still cry

But you and God keep me strong, so I'ma still try

Reppin' this UGK, now won't I?

â€~Cause through your music you live forever, so Trill don't die



I know you're watchin' over me, last night I saw you in my dream

At the crossroads, I'll see you there

My friend, my brother till the end can't wait to see you again

Save a place in heaven for me



There's an angel in the sky watching over me

There's an angel in the sky watching over me
