dave east - like a rose lyrics

[intro]
one day i’ma grow (4:46 am in harlem)
plant me in the dirt (new york city )
and watch me blossom like a rose
standing on what i’m worth (uh)
i could never sell my soul (yeah)
bigger than rap n+gga (never know)
inside me, i just pray it never shows (not what i did)
pray it never shows
pray it never shows (feel me)

[chorus]
one day i’ma grow
plant me in the dirt and watch me
blossom like a rose (blossom)
stand on what i’m worth and i could
never sell my soul (never)
for the ones that deserve the life that
they would never know (never)
so much pain inside me, i just pray it
never show
i just pray it never show (never)
one day, i’ma grow
plant me in the dirt and watch me
blossom like a rose (come on)
stand on what i’m worth and i could
never sell my soul (come on)
so much pain inside me, i just pray it
never show (come on)
for the ones that deserve the life that
they would never know (my n+ggas)
they would never know
they would never know
[verse 1]
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 hope)
i’m trynna get my life right where i want it at (right where i want)
remember they cut off my lights, like
where the warning at?
sometimes you die, sometimes you get to live (come on)
sometimes you might be homeless
sometimes you might get a crib
sometimes they hate, sometimes they
love you, that’s just what it is (it is)
sometimes you gotta figure out just
how ’bout to build, for real
i caught the chills in the summertime
promethazine f+cked 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
[chorus]
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 (never)
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

[verse 2]
(bigger than rap, you 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 n+ggas not
selling it, they was using
from my bedroom window, i heard shooting
made me contemplate my life and all
the lives n+ggas was losing, it’s a sad story
never been nowhere but your projects
that sh+t 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 sh+t
gave my uncle 1500, that n+gga smoked it (d+mn)
reminiscing’ bout my homies that died
i’m by the ocean
see me in the streets, they just know

[chorus]
one day, i’ma grow (rolling)
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 (crazy how far i came)
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 (watch me)
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
