Got you. I’ll flip it into hood gospel / pain rap—slow, emotional, street-heavy, Rod Wave / Morray-type vibe, but original wording and flow.

[Intro]
Yeah…
Uh…
Street gospel, you hear me
Pain talk
Lost too many…
[Chorus]
I done seen some broken halos,
Folded wings, they couldn’t fly no more
Lights dimmed, used to glow gold,
Now they gone, Lord knows where they go
Angels round here wear scars,
Came from heaven just to play they part
Taught me love, then they depart,
Left my heart bruised in the dark
[Verse 1]
I grew up where prayers feel heavy,
Mama cryin’, bills past due
Homies dyin’ way too early,
Closed caskets, church pews
Had some brothers with pure souls,
But the streets made ‘em cold
They was stars with cracked crowns,
Shinin’ bright then they ghost
I ask God why it hurt like this,
Why the good ones never stay
Why the real gotta fade away,
While the fake ones still get days
But I learned pain got purpose,
Even when it don’t make sense
Some angels only visit us,
They ain’t meant to stay permanent
[Chorus]
I done seen some broken halos,
Folded wings, they couldn’t fly no more
Lights dimmed, used to glow gold,
Now they gone, Lord knows where they go
Angels round here wear scars,
Came from heaven just to play they part
Taught me love, then they depart,
Left my heart bruised in the dark
[Verse 2]
Don’t go searchin’ for the answers,
Don’t ask Jesus why He choose
Some things meant for later days,
Some truths we ain’t supposed to view
Life a test, faith the lesson,
Every loss another scar
I done talked to God in silence,
Sittin’ lonely in my car
They say time heal wounds,
But it just teach you how to cope
I still talk to the sky at night,
Tell my angels I got hope
If you watchin’, keep me strong,
Help me make it out this pain
I’ll carry on your legacy,
Say your name inside my songs
[Bridge]
Yeah…
If heaven got a hood section,
I know you up there shinin’
Still lookin’ out for me
[Final Chorus / Outro]
I done seen some broken halos,
Folded wings, they used to fly
Still feel ‘em when I close my eyes,
Still hear ‘em when I cry
They ain’t gone, they just above,
Watchin’ over us with love
Broken halos still shine bright,
Just on the other side tonight

If you want, I can:
• Make it more melodic (sing-rap hooks)
• Make it harder street (less gospel, more pain)
• Or structure it exactly like a Rod Wave song (shorter verses, bigger hook)
Just tell me the direction 🎤🔥
