Avenging Angel

Lyric

By Julie O'Hara - Author, Poet and Spiritual WarriorPublished 2 days ago • 2 min read

[Verse 1]
You read the room like  loaded dice
Mistook my silence for a softer side
You smashed the glass, you crossed the line
Now every warning you should have seen coming comes alive
I know the tricks, I know the game
Hear the promise beneath my  name
You want drama, you want a scene
But you forgot he  stands with me

[Pre-Chorus]
Choose your words, measure your breath
Some doors open into consequences

[Chorus]
Don't think you can mess with my man
You'll wake an avenging angel in me
Don't push buttons you don't understand
I protect what you will never see
I have a halo made of battle plans
And a heart that refuses to flee
Don't think you can mess with my man
Your warning is standing right here in me

[Verse 2]
I keep receipts, I keep my cool
I turn your little trap into a school
No cheap disguise, no borrowed charm
Gets past my protective guard around his heart
I'm not jealous, I'm precise
I separate the truth from your lies
You call it fire, I call it grace
I'm a clear-eyed shield in a human shape

[Pre-Chorus]
Choose your words, measure your breath
Some doors open into consequences

[Chorus]
Don't think you can mess with my man
You'll wake an avenging angel in me
Don't push buttons you don't understand
I protect what you will never see
I have a halo made of battle plans
And a heart that refuses to flee
Don't think you can mess with my man
Your warning is standing right here in me

[Bridge]
I don't need Satan's thunder to make you listen
I don't need rage to make my point
A steady hand, a sharpened vision
Love is the blade you can't disjoint
Step back now, let this lesson land
You are not dealing with an empty threat
He is loved, and I will stand
With every breath I have left

[Final Chorus]
Don't think you can mess with my man
You'll wake an avenging angel in me
Don't push buttons you don't understand
I protect what you will never see
I have a halo made of battle plans
And a heart that refuses to flee
Don't think you can mess with my man
Your warning is standing right here in me

[Outro]
Clear eyes, steady hands
You know exactly where I stand
Clear eyes, steady hands
Touch him once, and you'll meet who I am
