Black Roses (Explicit)

Oooh a black rose in the concrete sways

Blues where the sun was skewed

Can we, can we, can we stay

Yeah Black roses Yeah

Ayo I climax on paper

some say the gauge is safer

I speak my mind and never waver

No matter what these lemons say

I disregard and commission myself today

To paint this portrait

Tripping off material **** my family getting more sick

Damn I appreciate the basics

Food clothing and shelter avoid the Helter Skelter

If the base is threatened my flame is unbuttoned

Gluttons they just bloodsuckers of the poor

they want war son They've been asking for it

the world is ugly, but we gotta go through it

Destroy, rebuild, reform, and refill

Take daughters and teach still

Take our sons and reveal reality

No man's immune to this insanity

Yo, I sit and wonder

Am I wrong for packing protection?

My lil G seen the holster restin'

And he knew what it was

I tucked in my gloves and retract my motives cause

I'd rather be free soakin' in their faces everyday

Than caged in shame for trivial gain

Oooh a black rose in the concrete sways

Blues where the sun was skewed

Can we, can we, can we stay

Ayo, fresh out the basement,

Cat naps on pavement

Never truly out, the slightest sounds will wake em

Hell I was raised with, no sparks, just fire

Eye of the tiger, heart pumpin' desire

Product of the struggle, unclog my drains

Stomach still growlin', think I don't know about pain

Made it through the night, harsh storms, no drizzle

Real hard time Concrete for pillows,

Thoughts of saying **** it Luck never had it

Fall's detrimental the landing was never padded

Dreams never pleasant just nightmares and scares

Life full of splinters don't know about crystal stairs

Curb marked with stains rough lessons, no gains

If these walls could taught they'd box most ashamed

Mode always go ain't slowing down or stopping

Stand tall in the pocket cause running just ain't an option

All purpose with the climate turn puff from a minus

Underneath the gravel, if you look you'll find us

Rarest of the Jews, but ever so precious

Value in the essence, enriched with Kev’s blessings

Don't know!!

Oooh a black rose in the concrete sways

Blues where the sun was skewed

Can we, can we, can we stay

(Kev laughs)

In the city’s heart

Where shadows reign

A flower grew defying pain

No golden rays to guide her way

Just black roses, in the dark they sway

Oh black rose you shine so bright

In a world where there’s no light

Oh black rose you shine so bright

In a world where there’s no light
