Roses

(Gimme my roses)

(Gimme my roses)

(Gimme my roses)

(Gimme my roses)

Yeah, they talk like the movin’, but ain’t got no motion

I got the drip when I came out the ocean

They saying they solid, but showing corrosion

I knew they was fake when I text, I’m on open

They must be mad that I’m chosen

I had to put ‘em on focus

I gave what I had and I put ‘em on notice

Don’t you wait ’til I’m dead just to give me my roses

Battle with pride, but the Lord knows I’m trying

It’s me versus the man in the mirror

And the man really made mistakes

I’m giving it all it can take

I’m really walking by faith

Don’t you get mad ‘cause I flooded the face

I been working hard

I knew this was Grace, yeah

I said amen then I walk like I got it

Strap to my back I took off like a rocket

They wasn’t here now they beg for the pocket

I gave every care now I ain’t got an option

I came a long way from back popping Naproxens

Too many hating when they know you poppin’

I ran up the ranks now they know I ain’t stopping

I been out the mud so you know how I’m rocking

They talk like the movin’, but ain’t got no motion

I got the drip when I came out the ocean

They saying they solid, but showing corrosion

I knew they was fake when I text, I’m on open

They must be mad that I’m chosen

I had to put ‘em on focus

I gave what I had and I put ‘em on notice

Don’t you wait ’til I’m dead just to give me my roses

Huh, huh

I came a long way and they hate it

Remember them days in the basement

They don’t know what I gave just to chase this

I work way too hard just to be in this race

I prayed for this table to sit with the greats

I was starving myself just to fill up your plate

Then took all the crumbs and still I said Grace

Ah, Lord I’m so grateful

I got everything that I prayed for

This really all that I prayed for

I seen how they doubted me

But I stuff all these blessing like calories

I got sick of the bull like it’s allergies
