Lyrics Roses - BackWood Jones

To tell the truth it's been a helluva journey
Because music tracks took me all across the country
I need a mil that'll fill up the tummy
But to me, the amount of love, that mean more than the money
See it's hard for me to understand these days
Feeling like you gotta die just to get praise
I'm just telling you how I see it, it ain't hate
I just feel it's some dollars short and days late
You give it now or later, tell me the correlation
Because it ain't dick riding if you tell em they motivate you
They see you getting too much love, they bound to hate you
Until you gone, they hit the gram and say you they favorite
I sold grass, I'm from the dirt now check the pavement
I'm alive, so everyday I say Ma I made it
Stay with the latest, I can't be everybody's favorite
But while I'm here, let a nigga know what the play is

Say I'm down to ride then I'm rolling with ya
I been through hell I'm the coldest nigga
Moment they know you gone they supposed to miss ya
We all from the dirt give them their roses nigga

Say I'm down to ride then I'm rolling with ya
I been through hell I'm the coldest nigga
Moment they know you gone they supposed to miss ya
But I'm here gimme my roses nigga

I get confused in this era, I don't know who to blame
It's all fake and phony, money over the fame
I'm trying to level up, I don't wanna just maintain
It's all love, salute if you on the same thing
They try to copy but I don't leave em a trace
You get flowers on your grave but die with an empty vase
Bunch of crooked niggas but the paper straight
They don't even know why they do it, they just hate to hate
I was laced with grace, I been moving state to state
Imma paper chase, I hope I don't run out of weight
Give them they roses, why you gone make em weight
Til it's a day where they can't hear what you say
And I ain't perfect, I don't judge Imma victim to it
I got loops of mistakes I'm getting through it
Bottom line if they deserve flowers give em to em
Gotta honor the people you see that's getting to it

Say I'm down to ride then I'm rolling with ya
I been through hell I'm the coldest nigga
Moment they know you gone they supposed to miss ya
We all from the dirt give them their roses nigga

Say I'm down to ride then I'm rolling with ya
I been through hell I'm the coldest nigga
Moment they know you gone they supposed to miss ya
But I'm here gimme my roses nigga
