Ok here goes!

This is the first time I've actually posted one of my own songs here. Unfortunately thanks to COVID my vocals are nowhere near as strong as they used to be, so please ignore the bum notes lol.

Everything you hear with the exception of my vocals is BIAB2025. Final mixdown etc done in Mixcraft Pro 10 Studio.

Angels Don't Follow (Where The Devil Steers) P McNaught 2025

ANGELS DONT FOLLOW (WHERE THE DEVIL STEERS) (c)P McNaught 2025


[Verse]
There's a bar down by the interstate, they say it’s trouble’s home,
Where the neon paints the faces of the lost souls all alone.
And I’ve seen dreams get tangled there in smoke and bitter tears,
But angels don’t follow where the devil steers.

[Verse 2]
The preacher’s daughter loved a man with whiskey on his breath,
She found out too late his promises were just a masquerade of death.
She prayed for wings to carry her beyond those shadows near,
But angels don’t follow where the devil steers.

[Chorus]
Oh, take the higher road, no matter how it pulls,
The weight of sin will drag you down, those paths are dark and cruel.
Keep your heart away from the whisper that tempts your deepest fears,
‘Cause angels don’t follow where the devil steers.

[Verse 3]
There's fields of gold out yonder where the sun don’t hide its face,
But down here in temptation’s trap, it sure feels a lonely place.
Don’t trade your light for darkness, don’t let the shadows near,
'Cause angels don’t follow where the devil steers.

[Bridge]
I hear the choir calling me from somewhere out of sight,
Singing hymns of grace and mercy, leading me toward the light.
That forked path’s meant to shake you, but the straight one’s crystal clear,
Angels don’t follow where the devil steers.

[Chorus]
Oh, take the higher road, no matter how it pulls,
The weight of sin will drag you down, those paths are dark and cruel.
Keep your heart away from the whisper that tempts your deepest fears,
‘Cause angels don’t follow where the devil steers.
