The Tormented Soul of XXXTENTACION in 'WingRiddenAngel'

XXXTENTACION's 'WingRiddenAngel' is a haunting exploration of inner turmoil, regret, and the struggle for redemption. The song opens with a powerful metaphor: 'I shot an angel with my father's rifle.' This line suggests a profound sense of guilt and remorse, as the angel symbolizes purity and innocence, which the narrator feels he has destroyed. The repetition of 'I should've set it free but I' underscores the regret and the missed opportunity for redemption.

The lyrics delve deeper into the narrator's despair, with vivid imagery such as 'Bottle full of pills, passed out on the curb' and 'Noose like a necklace on my neck, won't go.' These lines paint a picture of someone grappling with addiction, suicidal thoughts, and a sense of being trapped. The mention of 'Blade for your cries, count a penny for my sins' further emphasizes the self-destructive tendencies and the weight of guilt the narrator carries.

The chorus, 'Girl your wings, fly away, fly away, fly away,' serves as a plea for escape and freedom, not just for the girl but also for the narrator himself. It reflects a desire to break free from the chains of depression and self-loathing. The song's closing lines, 'I carry my heart on my face, I'm so depressed / What good is sex? / I pray that you would love me less,' reveal the depth of the narrator's emotional pain and his struggle to find meaning and connection in his life.

'WingRiddenAngel' is a raw and unfiltered glimpse into the mind of XXXTENTACION, capturing the essence of his battles with mental health, guilt, and the quest for redemption. The song's dark and introspective lyrics resonate with listeners who have faced similar struggles, making it a poignant and powerful piece of music.
