Roses

And thorns...

Roses really smell like boo boo

For you I was

Deaf in both eyes

My heart listened to ya words

And ignored all the signs

I get what they mean now

When they say love is blind

Wanted you so bad

Started to lose my damn mind

But I lost you anyways

And had to realize

If it was supposed to be

Well, you’d still be mine

Like if you were meant for me

How’d all we ever do was fight?

Shit, almost every other night

And then we’d spark the light

Forget the real issues

Bury all the pain

Made something like love

Washed it all down the drain

Man this shit hurts

We couldn’t make it work

Was digging for diamonds

And ended up in the dirt

I tried to speak on it

Had you calling me a phony

How’d we spend three years together

And you still don’t fucking know me?

Lowkey.... nah, it’s alright.

I’ll let you have that shit

I present to you my back,

You can continue to stab it

The ugliness? The disrespect?

Well thanks for the reminder

Whatever perfect bitch you want?

I hope yo ass fucking find her.
