Fallen From My Own Heaven

[Intro]
[murmured hook, distant]
I was crowned in gold
Now my crown’s corroded
They prayed my name
’Til the prayers imploded
[Verse 1 – Male]
Had the halo, heavy on me
Whole town kneeling when they saw me walk
Built a kingdom out of nothing
Turned my pain into a pillar they could lean on, talk
Fed the hungry, I forgave my rivals
Kept my hands clean, quoted holy titles
Thought love meant that they would stay
Thought light meant it never turns gray
But the closest one kept a quiet ledger
Smiled in my face, sharpened every letter
Signed my fate with a crooked grin
Whispered “trust me” as he reeled me in
[Chorus – Both]
I was the greatest angel on their tongues
Til they twisted every story I had sung
(yeah)
Now I’m falling, falling through the echoes of your lies
Let the darkness in my eyes
Be the last thing that you see tonight
I was the greatest angel in your sky
Now the feathers on my wings are set on fire
(oh)
If betrayal is the price to feel alive
Let the ashes be my crown
As I welcome every shadow on my mind
[Verse 2 – Female]
You called it destiny, I called it pressure
Watched you bleed yourself just to look impressive
Held your heart while they held a gavel
They adored your shine, but they loved my gravel
I saw every crack in that glass throne
Saw your “friends” take notes from my phone
They were sipping on your sacred trust
Already digging you a bed in dust
I warned you soft, you just heard static
You were busy being perfect, automatic
So when they drew a line, I drew a blade
Cut the cord, let the colors fade
Now they chant your name like a curse word
All that mercy that you gave, now it’s turned
I’m the rumor on their lips, you’re the headline
“Holy man goes cold in the red light”
[Chorus – Both]
You were the greatest angel on their tongues
Til they twisted every story you had sung
(hey)
Now you’re falling, falling through the echoes of their lies
Let the darkness in your eyes
Be the last thing that they see tonight
You were the greatest angel in their sky
Now the feathers on your wings are set on fire
(woah)
If betrayal is the price to stay alive
Let the ashes be your crown
As you welcome every shadow on your mind
[Bridge – Male & Female]
[drums drop, whispered]
[Male] They built me up so they could watch me break
[Female] I lit the fuse, you carried the flame
[Male] Every “blessing” was a hidden stake
[Female] Every favor was another chain
[Male] So take my halo, twist it into thorns
I’ll wear that hurt like armor in the storm
[Female] Let them point at you and call you cursed
We both know they drew the blood first
[Male] I’m done begging daylight to forgive me
[Female] Let the night write the truth that they won’t see
[Both] If I’m the villain in their fragile faith
Then I’ll carve my name in the darker place
[Chorus – Both]
I was the greatest angel on their tongues
Now I’m walking through the fire I become
(yeah, yeah)
I’m not falling, I am choosing where I land
Let the darkness take my hand
I’m the storm that they created in their plans
I was the greatest angel in their sky
Now I’m laughing as the halos start to die
(oh-oh)
If betrayal is the door to my new life
Let the ashes be my throne
As I finally make the darkness all my own

Verses stay sparse with distant piano and filtered vocal chops; hooks swell with layered harmonies, distorted 808 hits, and reverse cymbals. Final chorus adds octave-doubled leads, whispered ad-libs, and a widened stereo field for a tragic, anthemic climax., hip hop, inspirational
