Roses

I told myself to stop living this way
Start a diet, find a job
Getting my shit together, because in this life
We been wasting too many seconds on some dumb shit bro
I wanna be somebody

I wanna be the best that I can be
Just forget who I was
I wish, I wish I could

Stop time, You should know best can't forget times
I know it's just a phase, it'll pass by
I know I'll be okay if I can't find
Love, when it (I) love when it don't hurt
Try not to think and just hope that it works
Got a fear of failing, and failures I'm used to
Look at all that I done moved through
I think we're good?

Smell these roses, smell these roses
It won't solve a damn thing
But here, come smell these roses
Smell these roses, smell these roses
It won't solve a damn thing
But here, come smell these roses (Oh, oh)

Bite my neck and inject me with your
Hazel eyes you're such a catch, yea
Still my arms cramp and I, feel defeated when I
Subdue the feeling that you're so far
From San Diego to Mexico you're on the low

Puzzlin this peaceful horror show
The scariest kind that I know
You're the hash slinging slasher
My rose-tint disaster
The scariest song to sing

Momma told me got to study something son
Daddy told me, put the dreams aside, and
Follow through it 'till you're done
With school and other things
The family comes first
Help me lord, what I've done
People tryna hurt us, it's okay
Go to school and watch him pull a gun
I strive and prosper, to give my seed
Something I have yet done
To learn to love yourself and don't change a damn thing for anyone
I love you, and that's all that matters yeah
Fuck the outcome
There's no other thing I'd rather do than to finally overcome

Right into the swirl, steady thinking bout' you girl
When I'm having thoughts of you, should be thinking about the world
But when the nights are filled with cold, you ignite the fire to the coles
Only thing I overdose
To
All these older problems that I've been through
I don't miss you, starting issues
Instead of being petty, I would kiss you
You so overdone, think you won, but you run
Hear the shot of the gun

Get my shit figured out
instead of sitting with these doubts
Imma show what I'm about
Take a turn, another route
I don't need an ounce of clout
Know that I can feel without
I don't need a handout
Just so I can stand out

Got the best of intentions, catch the vibes that I'm sending
Ain't no honorable mention, take this power to the happiest endings
Turn these lows into positive lessons

Smell these roses, smell these roses
It won't solve a damn thing
But here, come smell these roses
Smell these roses, smell these roses
It won't solve a damn thing
But here, come smell these roses (Oh, oh)
Smell these roses, smell these roses
It won't solve a damn thing
But here, come smell these roses
Smell these roses, smell these roses
It won't solve a damn thing
But here, come smell these roses (Oh, oh)

I know something you can not afford
I know something you can not afford
I know something you can not afford
And I know something you can not afford
