Krept, Konan, Emeli Sandé - Roses lyrics

This one's for you Kev
You probably won't hear it
They said you got two weeks left
The doctor couldn't clear it
The leukemia's weakened you
You feel like it's defeated you
You can't even speak now
You know how that chemo do
Is it the end for you, Kevin? No
It's got your body but it ain't got your soul
God's got better plans for you
He's the man for you
Gave me a wake-up call, so I'm thanking you
You said you need awareness
Well I'mma get it for you
Spread a message for you
Send a blessing for you
Just stay positive before it takes you
I'm just sorry I couldn't save you
Life's so short, ain't you forgetting
You think life's all good? Well it
Can change in a second
Whenever it's my time, whenever it arrives
I just hope I'm remembered when I die
(man, I swear)

High up from a bird's eye view
It's been cold but they still came through
Look how strong that the roses roses grew
High up from a bird's eye view
How the stars working out for you
Look how strong that the roses
Roses grew, yeah

Mum planted three roses
In front of the garden each summer
They bloom for you, yeah
We pray that you'll see them
From wherever God's keeping god's keeping
God's keeping you, yeah

Family over everything
What am I talking 'bout? Family is everything
And we don't speak every day
But you know you can phone me for anything
And I know I can't change the fact
They're sending you to war
I pray you make it back
Don't worry, you'll be home in a sec
Got me staring at this picture
We took before you left one thing to another
You're my cousin but I love
You like my brother
Looking out for me when nobody else did
Need to stop worrying, but I can't help it
Didn't wanna go but you didn't have a choice
And every time you speak
I hear the stress in your voice
But don't stress too much
You'll be back soon
Think about that pretty girl
You're coming back to

High up from a bird's eye view
It's been cold but they still came through
Look how strong that the roses roses grew
High up from a bird's eye view
How the stars working out for you
Look how strong that the roses
Roses grew, yeah

Mum planted three roses
In front of the garden each summer
They bloom for you, yeah
We pray that you'll see them
From wherever God's keeping god's keeping
God's keeping you, yeah

Mum planted three roses
In front of the garden each summer
They bloom for you
Please pray that you see them
Wherever God's keeping god's keeping
God's keeping you
