Angels is a collaboration between Noctica and Setmeonfire. As the third song Noctica released on YouTube, like Afterlife, it lacked the immediate emotional impact I got from Savior. However, it's a great jam and I enjoy Brax's rapping quite a bit, it just took me some time to really appreciate it. As my appreciation of the song has grown I have explored Setmeonfire and have come to enjoy their music as well.
"Found this song a lot harder to pull off live than I thought I would. It's in the middle of my range which I tend to struggle with. Tried to challenge myself to get it in one of three takes only, pretty happy how it turned out considering I haven't rehearsed it much. Shout out to the guys in Setmeonfire for tracking their parts and footage for me!
Anyway hope you enjoy this performance we recorded in our home studios" -Noctica (from the live vocal performance video description)
We learned to fly by destroying other's lives
We've learnt to hide the horns that show in time
Another mistake, we bend and we break as we build all of ourselves up
by tearing every single connection we have built right down
Aim for the sky but we fall to the ground
We crash and we burn but we make no sound
It's fight or flight but we choose to drown
We flew into the Sun
And it's burning us alive
The price we pay for playing god is that hell is in our mind
Living off of lies, but these angels gonna fall
Now you're scrolling through your time
Like you're hypnotized
Waiting in line for your demise
This is suicide
Living nine to five
Paywall, Jericho
I can't find no fucking peace of mind
I see you've got your vices
Giving into your fears
We're all living in a nightmare
This isn't for the feint of hearted
We only just gettin' started
Find your hate and disregard it
Fight the demons that they summon
You didn't have to feel this pain
But now you're doubt will be in vein
Dreaming of apocalyptic scenes
Satan isn't bothered by your screams
Steppin up with noctica
We the vultures circling your cadaver
We’ll make a feast outta you
Stayin’ broken so the pieces can’t be glued
We stay devoted so try to shut us up but you know that we immutable
We flew into the Sun
And it's burning us alive
The price we pay for playing god is that hell is in our mind
We flew into the Sun
And it's burning us alive
The price we pay for playing god is that hell, hell is in our mind
We flew into the Sun
And it's burning us alive
The price we pay for playing god is that hell is in our mind
