Like A Rose

[Intro]

One day I'ma grow (4:46 AM in Harlem)

Plant me in the dirt (New York City)

And watch me blossom like a rose

Standing on what I'm worth (Uh)

I could never sell my soul (Yeah)

Bigger than rap, nigga (Never know)

Inside me, I just pray it never shows (Not what I did)

Pray it never shows

Pray it never shows (Feel me)

[Chorus]

One day I'ma grow

Plant me in the dirt and watch me blossom like a rose (Blossom)

Stand on what I'm worth and I could never sell my soul (Never)

For the ones that deserve the life that they would never know (Never)

So much pain inside me, I just pray it never show

I just pray it never show (Never)

One day, I'ma grow

Plant me in the dirt and watch me blossom like a rose (Come on)

Stand on what I'm worth and I could never sell my soul (Come on)

So much pain inside me, I just pray it never show (Come on)

For the ones that deserve the life that they would never know (My niggas)

They would never know

They would never know

[Verse 1]

Sometimes you lose, sometimes you 'bout to win

Sometimes it's on you, it is not within

Diss my dead homie, gave they block a spin (Skrrt)

No registration I just hope that I don't get stopped again (I hope)

I'm tryna get my life right where I want it at (Right where I want)

Remember they cut off my lights, like "Where the warning at?"

Sometimes you die, sometimes you get to live (Come on)

Sometimes you might be homeless

Sometimes you might get a crib

Sometimes they hate, sometimes they love you, that's just what it is (It is)

Sometimes you gotta figure out just how 'bout to build, for real

I caught the chills in the summertime

Promethazine fucked up my stomach, ah

Prayed above like every night, "Just keep me hungry, God

I'm not complacent with my blessings, know I want 'em God"

Every race lately, I'm stressing, I don't know the odds

When I don't know which way to go, now I just go with God

When I don't know which way to go, now I just go with God

[Chorus]

One day, I'ma grow

Plant me in the dirt and watch me blossom like a rose

Stand on what I'm worth and I could never sell my soul (Never)

For the ones that deserve the life that they would never know

So much pain inside me, I just pray it never show

I just pray it never show

One day, I'ma grow

Plant me in the dirt and watch me blossom like a rose

Stand on what I'm worth and I could never sell my soul

So much pain inside me, I just pray it never show

For the ones that deserve the life that they would never know

They would never know

They would never know

[Verse 2]

Impossible was my mission, Tom Cruised it in some Gucci shoes

Roof on the 'Rari translucent, we got used to losing

We all got a vicem it depends on what you on abusing

Never took advice from niggas not selling it, they was using

From my bedroom window, I heard shooting

Made me contemplate my life and all the life niggas was losing, it's a sad story

Never been nowhere but your projects, that shit get mad boring

Prepare to lose your life, he pulled up with a mask on him

Before COVID

Them shawties in my hood, they ain't never respected broke shit

Gave my uncle fifteen hundred, that nigga smoked it (Damn)

Reminiscing' bout my homies that died, I'm by the ocean

See me in the streets, they just know

[Chorus]

One day, I'ma grow (Rolling)

Plant me in the dirt and watch me blossom like a rose

Stand on what I'm worth and I could never sell my soul (Crazy how far I came)

For the ones that deserve the life that they would never know

So much pain inside me, I just pray it never show

I just pray it never show

One day, I'ma grow

Plant me in the dirt and watch me blossom like a rose (Watch me)

Stand on what I'm worth and I could never sell my soul

So much pain inside me, I just pray it never show

For the ones that deserve the life that they would never know

They would never know

They would never know
