Roses

[Verse 1: Tek]

If you love me say you love me man

Don’t wait till I’m gone to say you love me fam

‘cause when it's said and done then you said nothing

You gonna be wishin that you woulda said something

I can’t smell the trees when I’m six feet deep

In the box with dirt with thrown on top of me

Why you wanna wait till I'm not breathing

To cry on my chest, and tell me how you was feeling

You say I tell em let em see me at my best

But you not knowing how much time is left

You keep saying "When I get round to it"

But they say the same thing so nobody ever do it

I’ve been through it, wishing I could take it back

Turn the clock back, to where we fell out at

If I could I'd part waters like Moses

And give you dozens while you can still smell the roses

[Hook: Freeway] [x2]

Still got love here you thought all the love was gone

I do what my brothers do, travel where my brothers go

But when the all love gone we wish that the love would stay

I do what my brothers do, pray to whom my brothers pray to

[Verse 2: Tek & Steele]

[Tek] Just think, if B.I.G and Pac made peace

[Steele] ...and you could say something to both of em, what would it be?

[Tek] What about your brother just got murdered?

[Steele] When you was crying saying sorry do you think that he heard it?

[Tek] For seven years, sisters not speaking

[Steele] A car accident claim one and now the other tweaking

[Tek] One cousins killed the next over three Ki's

[Steele] That sound like rich and Po if you ask me

[Tek] Mother and daughter at each others’ throat

[Steele] Daughter get raped

[Tek] ... mother can't cope

Never said sorry, before they left home

[Steele] She felt she ruined her life so she took her own

[Tek] Now daddy fucked up, drugs gettin sucked up

[Steele] He got a gran baby that he gotta raise up

[Tek] If I could I'd part waters like Moses

[Tek & Steele] And give you dozens while you can still smell the roses

[Hook: Freeway] [x2]

Still got love here you thought all the love was gone

I do what my brothers do, travel where my brothers go

But when all the love gone we wish that the love would stay

I do what my brothers do, pray to whom my brothers pray to

[Verse 3: Steele]

Bismi Allah al-rahmam al-rahim

My life’s real but sometimes it seems like a dream

My ahki advised me to stay up on my deems

Give thanks for what I got, go hard for what I need

Drink fast no time to eat

We in this together like two feet, knee deep, til we decease

Some say the honors out here in these streets

Who’s heart is pure, who's sure about his own peeps

My friends and my fam give ohms to eat

Cause when they gone to sleep we moan and weep

But while they still on their feet, salute when we greet

That's how soldier show respect when they troop to the beat

If I never say the words it ain't cuz I ain’t mean it

You can judge by my deeds that I pledge my allegience

If I could I'd part waters like Moses

And give you dozens while you can still smell the roses

[Hook: Freeway] [x2]

Still got love here you thought all the love was gone

I do what my brothers do, travel where my brothers go

But when all the love gone we wish that the love would stay

I do what my brothers do, pray to whom my brothers pray to
