Black Rose

When the road gets tough
I just feel like giving up
On this thing called love
Cause I don't think I'm wise enough
And even though I want it
Know this temple's filled with hornets
Wonder, will she crack the code?
I'm a Black rose

When a caged bird sings
Do you listen to it's cry?
Or do you try to wipe the tears from it's eyes
Broken, battered, beaten, yet a smile's his disguise
Just hoping in this life he don't ever flatline
Cause it can get hard for the kid
When he just wanna live
Make a difference in somebody's life
And dang it might be hard to forgive
All the wrongs he inflicts
He just wanna be somebody's light
Second best

Listen closely, this a morbid processional
Desire to mean more, an endeared collectible
Is it wrong to worry bout me and I, no retinal
Cuz I'm feeling locked up, need a key to this vestibule
Eager to open up, show em' my individual
Easier said then done, it seems I can't form a syllable
Wanna elevate their senses
'Till they reaching their pinnacle
A miraculous miracle untold

Guess I gotta do a mind sweep
Far as I can see no visine
Feeling like I'm bout to level up
I can feel it in my gut, cut em' off like Acme
Loving too hard, now my heart bleeds
My thoughts spilled out on the concrete
Purple rain on valentines, princes need a bomb queen
Lost in my mind
I'm Limm, but she gon find me like an army
My heart feel like the ocean
Turbulent and getting rocky
She will be the Rose, I won't let go, when it gets icy
A love that's worth the fighting
Through cuts it's never dying

When the road gets tough
I just feel like giving up
On this thing called love
Cause I don't think I'm wise enough
And even though I want it
Know this temple's filled with hornets
Wonder, will she crack the code?
Reputation under audit
Baby please make a deposit
Or this account will close
I'm a black rose

Got this vault locked up
You would think that it's in jail
I inhale the toxins of this world and I unveil, the new me
Then I fall like gravity
Downhill spiral, make me feel like a Pinwheel
Everything is permanent, but I want to prevail
Written in that Sharpay like Ashley Tisdale
Searching for that Aphrodite, fall in a deep spell
Now spell it out, black R.O.S.E. Wonder who gon find me?
