The meaning of the lyrics of the song "Guardian Angel" by the artist "XXXTENTACION"

In his song "Guardian Angel," XXXTENTACION explores themes of heartbreak, betrayal, and inner turmoil. The lyrical protagonist addresses a loved one, possibly already gone, expressing his pain and confusion.

The phrase "I know you like the back of my hand" is repeated several times, emphasizing the depth of connection and intimacy that has been shattered. The repetition of "Back of my hand, back of my hand, back of my hand" amplifies the feeling of loss and despair. The lyrical protagonist is numb with pain, trying to survive, but struggling immensely.

In the verse, XXXTENTACION utilizes metaphors such as "broken heart," "sharp teeth in chest," and "cancer" to convey the profoundness of his suffering. He feels used and betrayed, like a "pawn to [the] greed" of others. However, he holds no ill will towards his offenders, seeking only solace and peace ("the key to [the] chest where I could find my peace of mind").

The love he feels torments him, but he channels it towards supporting others ("lost and hurt and depressed"). The lyrical protagonist finds comfort in thoughts of his beloved, apologizing for not being able to shield her from pain.

The song concludes with XXXTENTACION confessing his inability to articulate the depths of his wound. The loss and heartache he experiences seem unfathomable to him.

[Intro: XXXTENTACION & Shiloh Dynasty]

Llew os uoy wonk I

—ytterp neeb ev'I

Nac eh naht retteb od nac I, naem I

Lrig, uoy wonk I, llew os uoy wonk I

Llew, llew, llew

Bmun os m'I, emas eht leef t'nod I dna

No dloh ot tsuj niap 'nileef eb ll'I, niap 'nileef eb ll'I

Bmun os m'I, emas eht leef t'nod I dna

No dloh ot tsuj niap 'nileef eb ll'I, niap 'nileef eb ll'I

[Verse: XXXTENTACION]

Listen close, what is this?

Is it heartbreak?

Is it truly what it feels like?

What it sound like?

What is truly at the essence?

Sharp teeth in the chest

Cancer all in the breast

Of the beaten and bruised

Feeling like a pawn to the greed of these fools

But I never been a piece of the evil

In the womb of these fake fuck ngas

With they masks up, presume

I'll be telling, if I got a load, I swear I resume

On my conquest

For the key to the chest where my mind slept

And the love in my heart is a cancer

And I spread it through the wall as an answer

To the cries of the dead and the vanquished

The depressed and the lost and the damned, it's

Preservation of the peace, an ideal world

Never lonely when you flowin' through my mind, girl

I apologize, 'cause I couldn't see the pain in your damn eyes

'Cause a nga made you leave with your heart in between different pains

Couldn't see ya when ya ain't cry

[Outro: XXXTENTACION]

I guess I'm at a loss for words

To feel so close to someone, and finding they're gone the next day

I guess you never realize how permanently damaging that is
