noah gold - flowers/ my funeral lyrics
[part 1: flowers]
[intro]
this is
for everyone who has never recieved flowers in their life
[verse]
they say men never get flowers, only get them when they die
i don’t even know who said that but i hope that it’s a lie
bought a lot of ’em myself but not one i ever received
but no matter how much they tell me, i don’t want to believe
they say mеn never get flowеrs, only get them when they die
this is all the fault of rich white men from 1985
ok, i don’t really know, i just need someone i can blame
it just makes me f+cking angry when assumptions stay the same
they say men never get flowers, only get them when they die
what if i was in the lucky 1 percent of all the guys?
if i promise i’m a good boy, can i please receive a rose?
if i promise not to cry then can i pr+ck me on the th+rns?
they say men never get flowers, only get them when they die
everytime i’m feeling down, i put my eyes up to the sky
talking to the universe, i don’t know if she really hears
can’t she see the water in this bath is made up of my tears?
they say men never get flowers only get them when they’re dead
can i live my life fulfilled if all my needs are never met?
i been taught to suck it up and never tell you if i’m sad
i could make a f+cking movie of the nightmares that i had
they say men never get flowers only get them when they’re dead
i just wanna break the cycle if i ever be a dad
tell my son he gotta cry, he gotta yell, he gotta scream
while he looks up to his father, not a feeling to be seen
they say men never get flowers only get them when they’re dead
can we blame the patriarchy for the workings of our head?
we dont need no flowers, we got our muscles, ’cause we are men
what the f+ck is feminine about recieving pretty plants?
roses, tulips, orchids, daisies, growing in my brain
it’s a small appreciation just to tell us we’re okay
looked for colors in our life but the only time that i found
all of the petals around me was when i’m laying in the ground
[chorus]
i need flowers, all these hours, i been living like a sh+ll
all the colors in each other, are we different? i can’t tell
from the ground up, they surround us, we are caged in, ring the bell
the aroma, drowning slower, no i don’t think i’ll be well
i need flowers, all these hours, i been living like a sh+ll
all the colors in each other, are we different? i can’t tell
from the ground up, they surround us, we are caged in, ring the bell
the aroma, drowning slower, no i don’t think i’ll be well
[part 2: my funeral]
[verse]
i’ve been here for hours, only now i see ’em
so they brought me flowers, you can f+cking keep ’em
don’t give a f+ck ’bout apologies for the way you treated
me when i was alive so i really don’t f+cking need ’em
go back to the florist and tell ’em to give back your money
the plants can never even grow on me, i’m never sunny
it’s like a joke how no one cares until you’re f+cking dead and
don’t play that joke on me cause i don’t think that sh+t is funny
i’m the forgotten one, rotten one, they forgot to mention
i’d f+cking slaughter em, all of em, if i wasn’t burried
they wear the black and they’re sad, my forgiveness they’re not getting
when i come back, imma stab ’em with a f+cking machete
take out their eyeb+lls they judged me with ’cause i knew you saw me
then cut their tongue for the rumours they were spreadin’ about me
i’ll slit your neck before you have the chance to say you’re sorry
stab you so many times like caesar but forget to count it
i’m undergound but i see everything
feel like i’m stuck and i just wanna flee
i know the rock is all covering me
now in the back hear them play my cd
permanent sunglasses, oh what a vibe
permanent sunglasses, oh what a life
he was a talent, now he’s in the light
always dream about flying, now he’s in the sky
crying because of me but i wouldn’t even wish you well
pray that i’m in heaven but you surely know that i’m in h+ll
chilling with the devil cause at least that motherf+cker real
wouldn’t have invited half the people that are shedding tears
blame it on you, blame it on them, blame it on her, never on me
blame it on fame, blame it on hate, blame it on fate, i guarantee
that i’m a saint, i never lied, i never fight, never a fake
what if my blame, is a facade, i’m not a god, made a mistake
listening to myself is like gin ’cause i’m so bitter
wanna stop complaining but i wasn’t raised to be a quitter
if i really wanted flowers should i look into the mirror?
’cause i think was the problem that i need to reconsider
didn’t get appreciation but that’s a result of karma
could’ve been a better person but i never really wanted
to help anybody out, it never was my f+cking problem
never talked to anyone, i didn’t pick up when they’re calling
now i’m all alone and i deserve it more than i expected
i was mean to everybody ’cause i wanna be respected
when the cells in my whole body will decay or will be melted
i got zero rights to be dissapointed with with how it ended
then i woke up in the night and my girl was by my side
should i get up and be real or continue with the lie?
never too late to be soft, but don’t have a lot of hope
’cause no matter what i do, these sunglasses ain’t comming off
they say men never get flowers, only get them when they die
until i lay in the coffin, i don’t know if it’s a lie
i think i just have to wait, i’ll have to give it some more time
if i’m never gonna get ’em then i guess that i’ll be fine
