Black Rose by Omondi Lyrics
My soul wheel is grinding slowly
How could I tell the world my story?
Sun, follow the river, you'll find me
Where stars aren't afraid to die in the East
The loved ones we missed
When the flowers bled, we withered with grief
We weathered while time faded away
"Mama, why was papa so grey?"
Blue white polo shirt, my old man slept forever away
Left my body in pain!
Chased my heart through his dreams
April fodder, the grass was greener with May rains
(damn)
Tiny seeds we buried our emptiness in the soil
While our pain grow
Late bloomers
Longing for winds to carry our soul home
Far District
Vibe with me
Razroblade salvation
I never sold my soul though the journey was bitter and cold!
Death after death
Scriptures ruffle when mama switch the lights out at night
The graceful moon knows the sad letters I write
I met a brother
He put my poems on the mic
She was kinder
She knew the dark rooms & traumas I hide
I don't pour henny
Or set flames on the leaves
Or even explode angel dust to climb stairways to the skies
So when the rain dropped on the casket
We lowered my baby down
I was like
Child of the earth, from dust to dust
Homesick souls always find their way back home
Now am separated a thousand miles from my child
I turn my sorrows into crayons
I bless her soul with the gold of dawn
On these
Lonely roads
I found a way to remember home
My soul hangs heavy
When the call home goes, tuuut, dial tone
For straight years
Her love cured the defects I had before
If she finally goes
I'd be sad but happy I had love of my own
Little girl of mine
A full diary of sonnets
My poems sound like elegies
When mama prays
I hope she forgives me, i couldn't take it no more
Theatre of scars
My body knows little life than my soul growing red, black rose
Sam
Kelly, Laura & Jay
Frank
Billy, Walter & Glory
Two sides of the cassette
Memories when they be rewinding my song
Memories when they be rewinding my song
And I hope
I'm as brave as my mother
I've not
Even called my family
About the life that's bout to find me home
How could I tell the world my story?
Sun, follow the river, you'll find me
Where stars aren't afraid to die in the East
The loved ones we missed
When the flowers bled, we withered with grief
We weathered while time faded away
"Mama, why was papa so grey?"
Blue white polo shirt, my old man slept forever away
Left my body in pain!
Chased my heart through his dreams
April fodder, the grass was greener with May rains
(damn)
Tiny seeds we buried our emptiness in the soil
While our pain grow
Late bloomers
Longing for winds to carry our soul home
Far District
Vibe with me
Razroblade salvation
I never sold my soul though the journey was bitter and cold!
Death after death
