Roses by Jeff Sun Lyrics
Growing up in suburbia we treated like commodities
Stay in line get in line and discard your fuckin oddities
I’m running and running running they don’t want me to stop
But as soon as I slow down I see the path to the top
Livin my life with a mindset of abundance
But don’t get me wrong I don’t mean clubbin throwin hunnits
I’m easy with my wealth it all comes back around
What a time to be alive opportunities abound
Like I said on the last track I ain't preaching to the choir
I'm spittin what I learned that’s the way that I am wired
How I'm growing how I'm livin Opportunity
Treatin people like heroes and seeing what they could be
So I give you my time my love my past my stories
Cause baby we gone go down in history
But I'm avoiding some things like the girls in my past
Didn’t mean to do it but them times was fast
Yeah
Them times was simple the City is not
I’m finding it harder and harder to keep my thoughts
Tryna find the answers I be looking for solutions
But if I’m outta my mind then best I can do is avoid the pollution
Gotta shield my head yeah I’m learning how to do it
This life is a trip I hope I was able to prove it
Offense defense protect yourself
No one in the end Gotta watch your wealth
Gotta watch your health gotta spread your seed
My new life motto preach the positivity
Bend all the rules I’m moving faster than lightspeed
Air earth water fire humans are electricity
Can’t lie to you you can’t lie to me
Please look after yourself sustainability
Sometimes I tire but I gotta keep it positive
My head in the clouds my eyes on the ground
I rather be dreamin than be pushing you around
Gotta motivate ourselves I think I showed you how
All I ever seen is people hurt from the energy
My mom my brothers sometimes it’s cause of me
So now I’m rebuilding myself from the ground up
One day we’ll grow up but for now we just pups
Imma share my pain and let it loose on the world
Just remember one thing baby you my girl
3:15
Give a man a free lunch and he’ll be hungry for dinner
But teach that man to fish and watch him make his own dinner
Why I work for this money it’s to give you my time
Know I’m preaching to the choir y’all know it’s suppertime
Reluctantly I take the mantle like Mickey
There’s a moral to this story but shit this ain’t Disney
I got a lot on my brain gotta chop up the refrain
Rewind the tape and then fast forward again
Master of myself all I need is my health
Defend my mind cause that’s the sum of my wealth
My friends and fam and one day I hope fans
You mean the world to me and I know you understand
Seeing ain’t believing dreaming ain’t free
This fortune and fame shit ain’t all it’s cracked up to be
Hard work to keep on pushing and good friends are hard to find
But pressures all around me and diamond’s are meant to shine
So I’ll keep on moving keep doing my thing
Bigger and brighter things a wiser and gentle king
Repeating the truths spreading the joy
Remember what you told me cause momma I’m your boy
I’m the first of my kind
Earths weight on my mind
Big brother to two
Then I add to the crew
Spread the knowledge
That I had in me all along
Uncage the beast
And sing out the birdsong
Made a trip out to Morocco Cleanse the spirit and the soul
Gotta protect myself and realize my goals
My vision no division subtract the indecision
Call me the Kwisatz Haderach or suck on my nutsack
Either way I’ll keep on rising Asian boys we 88
Prepare myself and knock on the pearly gates
I belong on the top but I’m always for the little people
Becoming who I am Muad’Dib that was fate
Hungry for a new me hungry for a new scene
Thirsty for a new source inspiration that’s the course
Stay the course stay the course my diet good of course
Bip Bap boom use every resource
Tuna pate
Chicken satay
Lunch at Malay with my guy
We ain’t cooking small fry
But give voice to the voiceless
Homeboying with the homeless
Dreamcatching with the hopeless
Inn n out this bitch
But I still like my five guys
Aiiiiight???
Stay in line get in line and discard your fuckin oddities
I’m running and running running they don’t want me to stop
But as soon as I slow down I see the path to the top
Livin my life with a mindset of abundance
But don’t get me wrong I don’t mean clubbin throwin hunnits
