Black Dahlia (Explicit) - Angel Haze[00:00:00]
You should write a song where the concept is [00:00:01]
You're basically writing like a love letter or like a piece of advice[00:00:03]
To your mother when she was your age[00:00:08]
I don't know[00:00:14]
Maybe I would write you a happy ending[00:00:16]
I would rearrange the pieces to your sad beginning[00:00:18]
I would put you far away from the decaying roots that bore you[00:00:21]
And let you experience all the ways that happiness[00:00:25]
Could bloom before you[00:00:29]
Or maybe I'm naïve [00:00:31]
Maybe I'm just a kid who thought that if she could plant a seed[00:00:33]
It would somehow grow inside you[00:00:36]
Spent so much of my time wishing you were different[00:00:38]
But reality is that where life could never be provisioned[00:00:40]
But if I could wish for one thing I'd go back and I'd fix it[00:00:43]
I'd tackle all your obstacles and kill them with precision[00:00:46]
And better the intentions of every single person[00:00:49]
Who play a part in you learning exactly what your worth is[00:00:51]
I'd shower you with purpose I'd wipe hate off the surface[00:00:54]
I'd reshape all your pain and make it f**king worth it[00:00:57]
No more feeling worthless no more f**king searching[00:01:00]
No more of that fraud sh*t nobody else could hurt you[00:01:03]
Yeah said nobody else could hurt you[00:01:06]
And if they ever tried too I'd wipe 'em from the Earth too[00:01:08]
Cuz I know that you hurting baby I know that you tired too[00:01:11]
I know that you been running from everything that's behind you[00:01:13]
I know that you've been burying everything deep inside you[00:01:16]
I can see it killing you wish that I could revive you[00:01:19]
But I'm stuck sitting in this time frame[00:01:22]
Struggling with my demons and playing these stupid mind game[00:01:24]
One day it could get better maybe it could get better[00:01:27]
Maybe we could change sh*t no more inclement weather[00:01:30]
Know you hated your mom know it went through your mind[00:01:33]
You were just like me wish that you had more time[00:01:35]
To see life from a different angle wrestle with a different angel[00:01:38]
Wouldn't lose your wings and fall from heaven like a cliffhanger[00:01:41]
Everything is different now nothing is the same[00:01:43]
And nowadays I swear it feels like you don't know my name[00:01:46]
But I look at the mirror and I see you every day[00:01:49]
I'm you in every way every hue and every shade[00:01:51]
And maybe you should know it's the last thing that I wanted[00:01:54]
Cuz what I hate about you makes me feel like I'm haunted[00:01:57]
And I don't wanna spend the rest of my time on the run and-[00:02:00]
So I'm just gonna confront it yeah I'm just gonna confront it[00:02:02]
And tell you that I love you for everything you made me[00:02:05]
And that you need to hear this even if it makes you angry[00:02:08]
God lives inside you you've already found him[00:02:11]
The Devil lives in memories and you just let him hound you[00:02:13]
And I despise your church for every f**king thing they taught you[00:02:16]
It's just a f**king stain that I wish I could wipe off you[00:02:19]
That I wish I could wipe off you[00:02:23]
And I forgive you for doing everything that it cost you[00:02:24]
Everything that it cost you[00:02:28]
Fame is such a heavy price I wish it didn't cost you[00:02:30]
Losing a part of me that would follow you to Hell[00:02:32]
Follow you to hatred or follow you to jail[00:02:35]
Followed you to patterns that I could never get out of[00:02:38]
Now I realize that I could never make it with that love[00:02:41]
Now I realize that sh*t is the alternative outcome[00:02:44]
Never wanted you to save me I just wish I count some[00:02:46]
I just wish that you grew up with someone you could count on[00:02:49]
I just wish you knew that you could never make it without love[00:02:52]
For your goddamn self and that you never ever find it in anybody else[00:02:56]
Cuz I would help you find you[00:02:59]
And if I saw it killing you I swear I would revive you[00:03:03]
And if that meant the end of me[00:03:07]
I'd do it all for you so you could have your happy end and peace[00:03:08]
Because you are such a special thing[00:03:12]
You're not just my mom but you're the reason I exist[00:03:14]
And the best life that you could've had for yourself[00:03:18]
Without making a mistake[00:03:21]
Would have meant I woulda had a nicer childhood[00:03:23]
And even though my childhood wasn't perfect and I still love you[00:03:25]
I just want you to know that if I could go back do one thing for you[00:03:28]
I would be one person for you[00:03:32]
I would make sure not just for my sake but so that[00:03:34]
You could've had a nicer life[00:03:37]
And a nicer childhood that you know[00:03:38]
You would not have made the mistakes that put us all[00:03:40]
In this bad situation[00:03:43]
And not have the stress to leave[00:03:44]
But just so that you would have been happier and stronger[00:03:47]
Even if I didn't exist even it meant that I was never born[00:03:49]
That's what I would have wanted for you[00:03:52]
Yeah and if that meant the end of me[00:03:55]
I'd do it all for you so you could have your happy ending[00:03:57]
Cuz I know that you hurting baby I know that you tired too[00:04:00]
I know you've been running from everything that's behind you[00:04:03]
I know that you've been burying everything deep inside you[00:04:05]
I can see it killing you wish that I could revive you[00:04:08]
And if that meant the end of me[00:04:12]
I'd do it all for you so you could have your happy ending[00:04:14]
And if that meant the end of me[00:04:18]
I'd do it all for you so you could have your happy ending[00:04:19]
And if that meant the end of me[00:04:23]
I'd do it all for you so you could have your happy ending[00:04:24]
I don't know[00:04:30]
Maybe I would write you a happy ending[00:04:32]
I would rearrange the pieces to your sad beginning[00:04:34]
I would put you far away from the decaying roots that bore you[00:04:38]
And let you experience all the ways that happiness[00:04:42]
Could bloom before you[00:04:45]
Or maybe I'm naïve [00:04:47]
Maybe I'm just a kid who thought that if she could plant a seed[00:04:49]
It would somehow grow inside you[00:04:53]
And that I could hide you from the rain[00:04:55]
So that it could be easier for happiness to find you[00:04:57]
Or maybe I'm still a kid who's caught in a dream[00:05:01]
I'm the heir to the throne of a princess[00:05:04]
Who's still trying to be queen[00:05:06]
Or maybe we're all just caught in the winds of a massacre[00:05:09]
The blackened leaves of dying black dahlias[00:05:13]
