Roses
Bryson Cole Lyrics

Off epiphany's now we shopping at Tiffany's
Now that I've had my epiphany, I've become successful enough to shop at a high-end store like Tiffany's.

Protect my soul as I maneuver through this industry
Navigating the music industry can be challenging, so I must remember to protect my soul throughout the process.

Nothing like em
I am unique and have no one else like me in the industry.

No similarities symmetry
I have no similarities with anyone else in the music industry, and no one else shares my symmetry.

Seminaries my centerpiece
My beliefs and my faith are at the center of everything I do as an artist.

Sever me ain't no synergy
I will cut off anyone who does not align with my values or has no synergy with me.

Your contacts and contracts Don't interest me
I am not interested in people's contacts or contracts if they do not align with my values.

May charge interest fees I can't show no sympathy
I will charge interest fees if necessary, and I cannot show any sympathy when it comes to business.

For all the times they criticized my ability Now they feeling me
People who once criticized my abilities are now recognizing how talented I am.

Just keep that same energy
I want people to maintain the same positive energy they have now and continue to support me.

I need your love I need support I'mma need all of that
As an artist, I need my fans' love and support to keep going.

I need acknowledgment Before the lord call me back
I want to be acknowledged for my work before I pass away, as it is essential to me.

So I'mma need my roses I'mma need to know that you notice
I want the recognition and appreciation that I deserve by receiving my flowers while I am still here.

I been overlooked When I should be overbooked
Despite my talent and hard work, I've been overlooked and not given as many opportunities as I deserve.

Still ain't learned nothing from the game they all took
Despite others' mistakes, I have not learned anything from them and still continue to work hard and make my way towards success.

We programmed to believe that it's all about the look
People in society have been programmed to judge people and things based solely on looks and not on their true value.

The crazy thing is I should win a Grammy off my hooks
I believe that my music is good enough to win a Grammy based on my hooks alone.

And don't forget the verses
While my hooks are impressive, my verses should not be forgotten, as they are also essential to my music's success.

Who else goes to service and churches Speaking to the kids and let em know they got a purpose
I use my platform to inspire and motivate young people by speaking to them about their purpose and the importance of going to church.

We need more servants less serpents
We need to focus on having more people who serve others and less who are only out for themselves.

I been in the field and I'm working I don't think y'all see it
Despite all of the work I've put in, I feel like people do not recognize or acknowledge how hard I've been working.

But it's not about me It's bout the people that we reaching
While I am the artist, my music is ultimately about the people I am reaching and inspiring with my message.

I just pray to God I see the roses 'fore the dirt
I hope to receive the recognition and appreciation I deserve before I pass away.

Legends go to soon before they know just what they worth
Too often, people who are considered legends pass away before realizing how valuable they truly are.

And I don't want the same Want you to know my pain Want you to know this not a game I need to know this not in vain
I want to be seen and known for who I am, and for people to understand that my music is not just a game, but a reflection of my life and experiences. I need to know that my efforts are not in vain.
