Roses

I know it's past visiting hours But can I please give her these flowers? The doctor don't wanna take procedures He claim her heart can't take the anaesthesia It'll send her body into a seizure That lil' thing by the hospital bed, it'll stop beepin' Hey, chick, I'm at a loss for words What do you say at this time? Remember when I was 9? Tell her everything gon' be fine, but I be lyin' Her family cryin', they want her to live, and she tryin' I'm arguin' like what kind of doctor can we fly in? You know the best medicine go to people that's paid If Magic Johnson got a cure for AIDS And all the broke - passed away You telling me if my grandma's in the NBA Right now she'd be okay? But since she Was just a secretary, worked for the church for 35 years Things s'posed to stop right here? My grandfather tryin to pull it together, he strong That's where I get my confidence from I asked the nurse "Did you do the research?" She asked me, "Can you sign some t-shirts?" -, is you smokin -? You don't see that we hurt? But still I smile, when Rosie comes to see me And I can't wait for a sunny day (seeing it through your eyes) Can't wait for the clouds to break They outside of the emergency room, room You can feel my heart beat, beat, beat If she gon' pull through, we gon' find out soon But right now she 'sleep, 'sleep, 'sleep My momma say they say she could pass away any day Hey chick, what these doctors know anyway? Let me see the X-rays, I ain't no expert, I'm just hurt Cousin Kim took off of work Plus my Aunt Shirley, Aunt Beverly, Aunt Clay and Aunt Jean So many Aunties we could have an Auntie Team Feel like Amerie, it's just "One Thing" When they said that she made it you see they eyes gleam I think we at a all-time high To get there, we run, we fly, we drive 'Cause with my family we know where home is So instead of sending flowers, we the roses I smile, when Rosie comes to see me And I can't wait for a sunny day (seeing it through your eyes) Can't wait for the clouds to break Oh, Rosie brings the sunshine I smile, when Rosie comes to see me And I can't wait for a sunny day (seeing it through your eyes) Can't wait for the clouds to break I smile, when Rosie come to see me And I'm sad, when Rosie goes away Oh, Rosie brings the sunshine (say) Can't wait, I can't wait, no Can't wait, I can't wait, no Can't wait, I can't wait No, can't wait, for, for a sunny day Momma can't wait, for the clouds to break Mm, mmm, mm, mm-mm, mm-mm Oh, oh, oh, oh, no, no, say Tellin' you the truth now Said I can't wait, uh-uh I won't wait, no
