Stephen Marley, Black Thought - Thorn Or A Rose lyrics
[Stephen Marley, Black Thought - Thorn Or A Rose lyrics]
We come from so far
And life is full of surprises
Just know I'll never change
No i’ll never change
No matter the circumstances
Though this road can be demanding
I’ll always be the same, always be the same
Never lose sight of who you are
Temptation comes from near and far
Wounds heal but leave a scar
Make sure from the start
It's from your heart
Because didn’t you know
That the higher you go
It’s the more you'll expose
If you’re a thorn or a rose
Because didn’t you know
That the higher you go
It’s the more you'll expose
If you’re a thorn or a rose
Yo we're all products of the
Same stem, same blood, and same skin
Same ghetto flower growing from
The same pavement
Rising to the challenge of this world
And trying to stay in it
Paying tears and sweat
Paying dues and paying rent
Never shall I stumble I stay
On the same wavelength
Yeah the game is savage yo
It’s primitive it's cavemen
Only way to save men and
Free them from enslavement
Start to over stand each other
Like a native language
Guiding one another down this
Road full of changes
Although it's full of dangers we
Got to be courageous
Let the vibes spread and
Make your bravery contagious
Know you’re going through the same
Book but different pages
People can be so vain
Hustling can be so pain-ful
And make you feel like all you
Do is work for no gain
But before it bottles up
The flames like propane
Inhale and exhale, no stress and no strain
And life is full of surprises
Just know I'll never change
No i’ll never change
No matter the circumstances
Though this road can be demanding
I’ll always be the same, always be the same
Never lose sight of who you are
Temptation comes from near and far
Wounds heal but leave a scar
Make sure from the start
It's from your heart
Because didn’t you know
That the higher you go
It’s the more you'll expose
If you’re a thorn or a rose
Because didn’t you know
That the higher you go
It’s the more you'll expose
If you’re a thorn or a rose
Yo we're all products of the
Same stem, same blood, and same skin
Same ghetto flower growing from
The same pavement
Rising to the challenge of this world
And trying to stay in it
Paying tears and sweat
Paying dues and paying rent
Never shall I stumble I stay
On the same wavelength
Yeah the game is savage yo
It’s primitive it's cavemen
Only way to save men and
Free them from enslavement
Start to over stand each other
Like a native language
Guiding one another down this
Road full of changes
Although it's full of dangers we
Got to be courageous
Let the vibes spread and
Make your bravery contagious
Know you’re going through the same
Book but different pages
People can be so vain
Hustling can be so pain-ful
And make you feel like all you
Do is work for no gain
But before it bottles up
The flames like propane
Inhale and exhale, no stress and no strain
