Gabriel
Roy Davis Jr. Lyrics
He was an archangel of love
He had good news, good news, good news
For those dedicatin' their lives
To the spirit, spirit, spirit
One love was the focus of
The true message, message, message
Everybody felt the tension
Time was fadin', fadin'
Gabriel play
Gabriel play, play
Gabriel play
Dancin' soon became a way
To communicate, 'municate, 'municate, 'municate
Feel the music deep in your soul
Gabriel playin', playin'
Hold on, hold on
Gabriel play
Gabriel play, play
Gabriel play, mmm mmm
Those that stand aside and watch
The soul movin', groovin', movin', groovin'
Stand, clap your hands, be the one to show
Your love, overflowin', overflowin', overflowin'
Gabriel play
That's when you're happy, yeah, play
Gabriel play
Gabriel
Just release your soul to the love that's holdin' you
That's consolin' you
Your eyes are dancin', paradise, to realize, realize, realize
Feelin' so right 'cause Gabriel's playin'
Clap your hands
Gabriel play
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah play
Mmm mmm, ah oh, mmm mmm, mmm mmm, ah ah ah ah, mmm oh oh

@BoogieDaWizard they didn't mean music if the paradise garage 😂, the UK garage sound
Sean Brothers
After some years. I would have to agree
Saul Marinoni
I named my oldest son after this track. He's on the streets battling drug addiction right now. Just turned 18. I trust the reason he was named after this, the same vibe will bring him back to the light🙏
Vincenzo Bottone
My heart goes out to you my brudda.... Im 6 months clean after 27 years of addiction... I only thought I was hurting myself and not the people that loved me... Your child KNOWS you love them... It's probably hard to see but as addicts we have a way of blocking out all emotions... You WILL overcome this together.. Nuff luv
Denzel A-Kum
Gabriel will watch over your son until he finds his way home. God bless you my brother.

I went through a crazy phase and this song was part of it. Loved it. It was a time of equal dark and light - the worst and best of times. Drugs, music, irresponsibility, good friends, great times. Some people need more than the rat race. It doesn't make them a lost cause or even a reason to worry. As long as your son has good friends, that's all you need to worry about. If he doesn't, he's doing it all for the wrong reasons.
Paul Mott
Trust in the lord and he will guide you and your son. Will pray for you both.
