Dave East - Like A Rose lyrics

One day I'ma grow plant me in the dirt and
Watch me blossom like a rose
Standing on what I'm worth
I could never sell my soul
Bigger than rap nigga, never know
I just pray it never shows
Pray it never shows pray it never shows

One day I'ma grow
Plant me in the dirt and watch me
Blossom like a rose
Stand on what I'm worth and I could
Never sell my soul
For the ones that deserve the life that
They would never know
So much pain inside me, I just pray it
Never show i just pray it never show
One day, I'ma grow
Plant me in the dirt and watch me
Blossom like a rose
Stand on what I'm worth and I could
Never sell my soul
So much pain inside me, I just pray it
Never show
For the ones that deserve the life that
They would never know they would never know
They would never know

Sometimes you lose, sometimes you
'bout to win
Sometimes it's on you, it is not within
Diss my dead homie, gave they block a spin
No registration I just hope that
I don't get stopped again
I'm trynna get my life right
Where I want it at
Remember they cut off my lights, like
Where the warning at?
Sometimes you die, sometimes you get to live
Sometimes you might be homeless
Sometimes you might get a crib
Sometimes they hate, sometimes they
Love you, that's just what it is
Sometimes you gotta figure out just
How 'bout to build, for real
I caught the chills in the summertime
Promethazine fucked up my stomach ah
Prayed above like every night, "Just
Keep me hungry, God
I'm not complacent with my blessings
Know I want' em God"
Every race lately, I'm stressing
I don't know the odds
When I don't know which way to go
Now I just go with God
When I don't know which way to go
Now I just go with God

One day, I'ma grow
Plant me in the dirt and watch me
Blossom like a rose
Stand on what I'm worth and I could
Never sell my soul
For the ones that deserve the life that
They would never know
So much pain inside me, I just pray it
Never show i just pray it never show
One day, I'ma grow
Plant me in the dirt and watch me
Blossom like a rose
Stand on what I'm worth and I could
Never sell my soul
So much pain inside me, I just pray it
Never show
For the ones that deserve the life
That they would never know
They would never know they would never know

Impossible was my mission
Tom Cruised it in some Gucci shoes
Roof on the' Rari translucent
We got used to losing
We all got a vice, it depends on what you
On abusing never took advice from niggas not
Selling it, they was using
From my bedroom window, I heard shooting
Made me contemplate my life and all
The lives niggas was losing, it's a sad story
Never been nowhere but your projects
That shit get mad boring
Prepare to lose your life, he pulled up
With a mask on him before COVID
Them shawties in my hood, they ain't
Never respected broke shit
Gave my uncle 1500, that nigga smoked it
Reminiscing' bout my homies that died
I'm by the ocean
See me in the streets, they just know

One day, I'ma grow
Plant me in the dirt and watch me
Blossom like a rose
Stand on what I'm worth and I could
Never sell my soul
For the ones that deserve the life that
They would never know
So much pain inside me, I just pray it
Never show i just pray it never show
One day, I'ma grow
Plant me in the dirt and watch me
Blossom like a rose
Stand on what I'm worth and I could
Never sell my soul
So much pain inside me, I just pray it
Never show
For the ones that deserve the life
That they would never know
They would never know they would never know
