Roses

It's been a miracle for what you've done
Please stay right by my side, two can be one
The righteous way to go, anyone would know
I believe that I told you so, you're second to none

The question is what do I know about love
They ask me all the time do I know about love
Naturally I say yes but I don't know ****
'Cause if I did I wouldn't be in and out of relationships

Why do I get caught up in eye candy
A few days I pound, she ain't no where to be found
Everyday I pull so many dimes
I need to change my middle name to one line

'Cause I got so many one liners
I tried to tell her I was ready to go all the way
But she couldn't be patient with me and now look at the end result
She ain't here to get these roses I bought

But I'ma keep my self-esteem up
And keep looking for some real love
You know it's true what they say, love's as precious as a rose
Will I ever find a rose? I don't know

It's been a miracle for what you've done
Please stay right by my side, two can be one
The righteous way to go, anyone would know
I believe that I told you so, you're second to none

I seen it coming way before we got here
You want me to put you over my whole career
My career was here first and it's here to stay
Don't trip girl you're still a [Incomprehensible]

My life is movie sets, rhyming, singing and world tours
If I ain't got a rose in my life then what's it all for
You think I want to be in private jets
Laid up in 5 star hotels by myself?

No, I want a rose to share with
The blessing of a backbone when I can't stand alone
I'll come home to a home cooked meal
A manicure, pedicure without seeing a bill

Am I describing you? I don't know
I don't want to spend the rest of my life living single
Patience is a virtue that's the way that it goes
The question is will I find my rose, is that you?

It's been a miracle for what you've done
Please stay right by my side, two can be one
The righteous way to go, anyone would know
I believe that I told you so, you're second to none

My mom's taught me not to wear emotions on my sleeve
So when I leave please believe I'ma leave, man
I'm not a charity case but you might have to donate
Some love tips and show me the way

'Cause if I really knew it all
You think y'all would have to talk to me about how to love and all
No, I'd be on top of the world at 27
With wife pregnant and white picket fences and ****

It's cool, I'ma get there soon
Running around in the yard having fun with my lil' ones
Thinkin' to myself, I had my share
There's gonna be women everywhere, not like the one I got here

Independent, fine as hell and got her own career
And if I ever needed her, she'll be right there, is that you?

It's been a miracle for what you've done
Please stay right by my side, two can be one
The righteous way to go, anyone would know
I believe that I told you so, you're second to none
