Angela Got That Glow

Lyrics

Verse 1
Little A in her sneakers
Backpack bigger than her frame
Honor roll on the fridge now
Gold stars all around her name
Highlighters on her homework
She be talkin’ ’bout “I just know”
Laugh loud when she gets it right
Yeah, my baby really got that glow (uh)

Chorus
Angela got that glow, yeah she do (yeah she do)
Straight A smile comin’ all the way through
But the way she run and wrap me up so snug
Man, the grades real good, but she the best at hugs
Angela got that glow, that glow
Proud granddaddy everywhere we go
You can keep your trophies, keep your stuff
’Cause my girl give the world’s best hugs

Verse 2
Tell me ’bout her science quiz
Eyes bright, talkin’ way too fast
Reads books on the car ride
Say she tryna be the first in class
But when she see me in that doorway
Whole plan switch up in a flash
Drops books, arms wide, full sprint
Boom—heart hit like a crash (ooh)

Chorus
Angela got that glow, yeah she do (yeah she do)
Straight A smile comin’ all the way through
But the way she run and wrap me up so snug
Man, the grades real good, but she the best at hugs
Angela got that glow, that glow
Proud granddaddy everywhere we go
You can keep your trophies, keep your stuff
’Cause my girl give the world’s best hugs

Bridge
Report cards fade on the freezer door
Pictures curl, dates turn to dust
But I know I’ma always feel that squeeze
When my knees shake, when I need that trust
Little arms ’round my neck, that’s grace
Whole long day get wiped away
Whisper, “Baby, you can be anything”
She say, “Granddad, you already made my day” (yeah)

Chorus
Angela got that glow, yeah she do
Straight A smile comin’ all the way through
But the way she run and wrap me up so snug
Man, the grades real good, but she the best at hugs
Angela got that glow, that glow
Proud granddaddy everywhere we go
You can keep your trophies, keep your stuff
’Cause my girl give the world’s best hugs (yeah)
Yeah, my girl give the world’s best hugs
