Glow of a Rose
Chorus：
And if my life is like the dust
Uh, uh, that hides the glow of a rose
What good am I?
(The glow of a rose)
Heaven only knows
I was told no good deed goes unpunished
So I'm sitting here thinking is my name tarnished?
Public perception is everything
Even the one calling' face the crucifixion
So who am I? (I, I, I, I)
I got the bunch of kids that's ready to die (die die die)
Like it launches on the other side (side side side)
But I rather see a million march than see a million genocide.
But when he wakes up, he take off, he wanna get kicked up
He got the scheme ass, he ready for sick up
Look at his face, he got blood in his eyes
The SWAT they pull up and put 3 in the side
He's there before a G need an alibi
Better yet he need a lawyer conquering on his side
Down at the west side,
At the house, blue wearing black and they throwing up gang signs
Don't it feel good to see all the gangs in the same place?
We might have different colored flags but we the same race
Mention the government with the same face, 75% incarcerate!
Chorus:
And if my life is like the dust (like the dust)

Uh, uh, that hides the glow of a rose
What good am I (good am I)?
(The glow of a rose)
Heaven only knows
I was told that my flesh will turn back to dust
So while I'm lying on this bed there's a few things we should discuss
I know I haven't been the best man,
But I was tempted in the garden of Eden by the serpent.
But I'm your man for mouth to mouth resuscitation
And if you need blood, call me transfusion!
I'd rather be carried by six than' this your love so honest
She looked in my eyes and say, 'don't mistake my kindness for weakness!'
Next day wake up and the music in the street
Peer pressure to sniff cocaine, ecstasy, molly
Sure I felt.. one night trapped in the devil's road
And I got family member in rehab, trying to kick the habit in coke, yeag!
So when I said permanent and permanent, permanent one
That's cause I came from the ghetto, ain't a vision of one
So ' genetic son, you're my inspiration
We gonna live past cremation!
Chorus:
And if my life (if my life )is like the dust (yeah)
Uh, uh, that hides the glow of a rose (glow)
What good am I (what good am I)?
Heaven only knows
[Outro:]
Let me play the guitar like it's my last day on Earth!
