Текст песни You Deserve Your Flowers - Davy Fresh

Can I smell my roses, yea
Before we get too old
And all my friends are gone now
And I'll be my own
Put in so much work now
For way too long
So can I have my roses?
Can I smell my rose?
(Give me my flowers right now)

How you think we started trends?
We was way too bold
I was out there on the block when it was way too cold
Trying to get this money up before the cops a roll
Hate to throw my whole pack into the bushes though
But I gots to go, the block is hot fosho
And if I rap it then I lived it
Niggas already know
You can acted tough in them writtens, but we know you a hoe
I need flowers for the work that I put in dog
Slid through the game paid, I'm still richer than y'all
Then them shows dried up when that pandemic hit
And your advance was gone because you spent this shit
On them Gucci shoes and them big ass blunts
Not knowing your label waiting for you to run it up
I take my son overseas when it drop in degrees
I'm just a nigga from the streets, I ain't got a degree
And they hate to show you love, I done ride for niggas
Put in so much work, I gave jobs to niggas
Cut slices out the bread and my pie for niggas
I ain't never hard to find, cause we ain't hiding niggas
I done made my mama proud, she ain't worried bout nothing
It's just the people I don't fuck with, who be worried bout something
Niggas know we getting money, so they know we be frontin'
If my homie got a business, then I'm coppin' me somethin'
And I ain't askin' for a discount
I ain't beggin' for nothing, you heard?

Smell the roses
Can you smell the rose
Smell the roses, before we get too old
Can you smell the roses
Can you smell the rose
Can you smell the roses
Give me my flowers right now

Can you smell the roses, yeah
Can you smell the rose
Can you smell the roses, yeah
Can you smell the rose
Can you smell the roses, yeah
Can you smell the rose
Can you smell the roses, yeah
Can you smell the rose

Yeah, my mama deserve her flowers too
She bought us out the ghetto doing the best she can do
Raising two bad kids with no man to look to
So all the flowers on your birthday, don't add up to what you do now
Just another kid running with his crew now
Fairfax treat the block like a zoo then
Treatin' black little boys like some grown men
So all my niggas on the block deserve they flowers for that
Shit, I only made it out because I learned how to rap
Put my mind on somethin' real and I'ma focus on that
I get the chance to leave the block and I'll be giving it back
I keep it lit and never burn out, these other rappers burn outs
We from the slums never thought this how we turn out
We work a nine to five, nigga tryna stay alive
And I was dreaming all the things that they want deprived
Hip-hop made all my dreams come true
And they tried to say it died
But we know that's not true
And they tried to be gangster
Nigga, that's not true
That be so disrespectful for the G's that went through
Went from rhyming on the block to writing raps on the plane
And yea, I used to be broke and women calling me lame
Now they sending me letters because they heard I'm a king
Perform the records that I made and buy my son a new chain
They ain't wanna give me flowers then I'm taking that shit
And they try to bite my style but they ain't moving like this
Smoking trees where there's palm trees
Getting rubbed on by a dime piece
Shit, we out here for two weeks
And you probably back home wanna harm me
But I keep it on me, I move like the Army
And I barely got peers, I be on my own
A nigga got a million fans but I'm all alone

Smell the roses
Can you smell the rose
Smell the roses, before we get too old
Can you smell the roses
Can you smell the rose
Can you smell the roses
Give me my flowers right now

Smell the roses
Can you smell the rose
Smell the roses, before we get too old
