johnny iv - concrete rose lyrics

poem (by: 2pac “the rose that grew from concrete”)
did you hear about the rose
that grew from a crack in the concrete?
proving nature’s law is wrong it
learned to walk with out having feet
funny it seems, but by keeping it’s dreams
it learned to breathe fresh air
long live the rose that grew from concrete
when no one else ever cared

verse
when a new star is born, another falls from the sky
it got me sitting, contemplating, what it means to be alive
cuz deep down i know that we all just wanna survive
but we can’t escape the truth, we all running out of time
the world keeps spinning, the rich keep winning
while the poor is sitting back, praying for a new beginning
i swear it’s got me thinking, and i wanna ask why
but the questions i ask don’t have no answers so i try
to stay distracted, i guess it is what it is
i’m tryna live, so i can spread some wisdom on to my kids
if i had one wish, i’d make death a guarantee
to see a new life, and get a second chance to be
a second chance to dream, a second chance to see
the people left behind, so we can live eternally
but that’s just the way it is and that’s just the way it goes
man i wish that i could live forever something like a concrete rose

hook
man i swear i wanna live forever
but before i do, i gotta get my sh-t together
i need more time so i can right my wrongs
i need more time so i can write these songs

long days turn to long nights, uh
and i’ve been really tryna get right
you never know the way that life goes
but i wish that i could live forever something like a concrete rose

verse
this thing called love, it seems to never last, in my past
i’ve seen people experience the highs, then they crashed
they couldn’t keep it pushing, what’s love without trust
no love, if there’s l-st, communications a must
if it’s real, just giving up ain’t the way to go
your love should always prevail, you gotta share a common goal
it seems like relationships just come and they go
to be honest with you, i didn’t plan on looking no more
i let god take control, he put my girl in my lap
he told me always hold her tight and don’t you ever look back
she hold me down that’s fact, make sure my heart is intact
i’ll do the same, i’ll be the man she’d never had in the past
i wanna spoil you with love, with words to let you know
that my love will never fade, with time it only grows
what’s the point of buying flowers if they only get old
i know this love will last forever, cuz it’s something like a concrete rose

hook
man i swear i wanna live forever
but before i do, i gotta get my sh-t together
i need more time so i can right my wrongs
i need more time so i can write these songs

long days turn to long nights, uh
and i’ve been really tryna get right
you never know the way that life goes
but i wish that i could live forever something like a concrete rose

outro
i don’t know nothing, but one thing i know
i’m gonna get it right by the time i go
learning through the lows, yeah that’s how i grow
from the bottom stay solid, i’m a concrete rose

i don’t know nothing, but one thing i know
i’m gonna get it right by the time i go
learning through the lows, yeah that’s how i grow
from the bottom stay solid, i’m a concrete rose
