Momma used to teach

And Preacher used to preach

There's angels watching over me

Their here to shield you

So you don't yield to the devil

When your soul gets weak

But they're hard to hear

When you're jammin gears

And they're always hanging back

Yeah they try to chase but if they wanna save me

They better step on the gas

Chorus

Cause I'm livin faster than my angels can fly

Yeah I've been wearin the wings off mine

I'm bound to die out-livin life

Faster than my angels can fly

Yeah faster than my angels can fly

Theres days I regret this hitch in my step

And scars on my boots and hands

All those times I rushed to get growed up

And to hurry to become a man

And the promises I made

And the hearts I break all in the name of fun

Yeah id apologize but I ain't go no time for no tie me up slow me down love

Chorus

Cause I'm livin faster than my angels can fly

Yeah I've been wearin the wings off mine

Yeah I'm bound to die out-livin life

Faster than my angels can fly

Yeah faster than my angels can fly

Yeah I slowed down I ain't what I was

Still they ain't got a prayer

Of ever catching up

Cause I was born to run born to run born to run

Faster than my angels can fly

Yeah I've been wearin the wings off mine

Yeah I'm bound to die out-livin life

Faster than my angels can fly

Yeah faster than my angels can fly
