Flowers (feat. Khomari el Vito & Piigh)

You gon' miss me when I'm gone
Judge me for what's right, forgive the times I did wrong
Give me my flowers, don't wait until it's late
Show me some love, I've had enough of the hate
I'll be okay
I'll be okay

Don't time me, I admit I've been slacking
It's been hard keeping my focus, I've been craving attention
See, in my mind I really am the greatest
Narcissism telling me that I'm the realest, all these niggas are faking
Knowing damn well nobody likes me
But can't refuse the talent, I don't hit the club a lot
Can't deal with wilding niggas out in public wanting ass kisses for their favors
No I won't allow it
I fell out with plenty bros, ain't have my interests at heart
It ain't too many rappers that is really down for the art
I mean, speak from their heart
When Cuban Linx turned off my mic and said I was rapping for girls
I laughed and thought to myself maybe it's this light I'm skinning
Just simply doing my shit with precision
Relativity no theory I can't relate
They're slow to me despite how fast the beat is
Just rap for rapping, cannot stick to topic
I know rappers that gon' say it, I just wonder if they mean it
9 Out of the 10 don't know about pain so they can't heal it
Ka Maseru where the fake is
A little appalled when they claiming shit yet they ain't live it
I'm livid thinking about the times that I was timid
Told me I couldn't, I swear to God I almost believed it
No I ain't waiting for no nigga, got me fucked up
I ain't working for your approval, I'm past that

You gon' miss me when I'm gone
Judge me for what's right, forgive the times I did wrong
Give me my flowers, don't wait until it's late
Show me some love, I've had enough of the hate
I'll be okay
I'll be okay

Dedicated, motivated, but underrated
They understated how long I waited, I longed I made it
They say I'm jaded, judging every word that I stated
To the point I debated whether it all was fated
Now I'm faded, old goals have gone and faded
I can't stop until the crib is large and the yard is gated
This light of mine in a dark space could illuminate it
So I tell the man in the mirror that you're greatest
Don't let them drain your energy, they wanna deflate it
Make the most of it all and don't you dare to waste it
Follow your dreams, tie your laces and chase it
Life is a canvas, pick your colors and paint it
Pain is temporary, nothing's made to last
Find joy in the moment, in every day that pass
Focus on the future, never looking back
Focus on what you have, not what it is you lack
It's harder when you're young, when you're gifted and when you're black
The system isn't for us, my nigga, and that's a fact
I wish I knew then what I know now
Don't rush it young king, take your time, nigga, slow down
Burnt bridges, I got a lot of those
So close to the edge that I might jump, jerranamo
We was once cool but I'm feeling like fuck niggas
It's really getting hard just trust niggas
