Roses

Gimme my roses for i take em by force Get my shovel out and dig em up straight from source Fuck the run around im running round im wagin a war Cause this shit a dirty game when u play remorse Shit is strange, and it's hard tryna move with a humble heart But karma is a bitch and you know she a fuck you raw I seen people switch soon as money become involved Close friends that I'm forced now to love from afar Plus im getting texts from my exes Just supposedly to check init seem innocent Though i know they'd fuck me if i let em But i'm disciplined Can't nobody come between my family Not a little bit I'm a father figure Can't afford to be a hypocrite They say the world is like a stage Or better yet a zoo Keep your hand up out that cage They want me making choices out of rage But i'm tame And I don't rest on my laurels So my morals never change I got the smoke still blowing And the trunk still knocking Half drunk while I'm rollin' around I feel the sun still shining and my skin still glowing Showing no signs of slowing it down So give me my praises before my body cold stiff 6 feet in the ground I need my roses right now They say dead people receive more roses than living ones Cause regret is stronger than gratitude But i kept it real this whole fucking time I need my shit right now This for the ones who kept it real no matter how people feel Even if you looked weak when you was just tryna heal Situation was bleak, and u kept it moving thru hell So take these roses from me, cause you made the choice to prevail That's G, and this is for anybody who failed Tryna do the right thing while the devil was on ur tail For anybody penning them letters up in that jail Tryna find a bit of heaven in that cell I see you For them single mothers working them double shifts Tryna raise her kids in that building were trouble lives Window in that alley decorated with blood and piss 5th grade teacher calling saying ur son at risk I swear that you got this shit They say the world is like a stage Or better yet a zoo Keep your hand up out that cage They want me making choices out of rage But i'm tame And I don't rest on my laurels So my morals never change I got the smoke still blowing And the trunk still knocking Half drunk while I'm rollin' around I feel the sun still shining and my skin still glowing Showing no signs of slowing it down So give me my praises before my body cold stiff 6 feet in the ground I need my roses right now
