Jahseh Onfroy, aka XXXtentacion, had a troublesome upbringing in Florida which resulted in him regularly being involved in physical confrontations. Onfroy was eventually put into a youth program before being sent to live with his grandmother. This song finds him talking about his perilous mental state, which resulted in a vicious cycle of pain and anger.
Onfroy ultimately apologizes to a girl for not understanding her pain. Never lonely when you flowin' through my mind, girl I apologize, 'cause I couldn't see the pain in your damn eyes Onfroy is addressing Jocelyn Flores, a close friend of his who suffered from depression. She committed suicide while visiting the Florida rapper and he later wrote "Jocelyn Flores" about her.
The beat was supplied by Potsu, who hearkens back to his instrumentation for "Jocelyn Flores." "Guardian Angel" commences with a backwards sample of Shiloh's outro from that song before continuing with a reversed sample of the "Jocelyn Flores" chorus.
