Roses Lyrics

[Verse 1]
My aunty she going crazy (going crazy)
Cuz my cousin just had a baby
Told em make sure he see that baby girl become a lady
I told em be that daddy he never had and don't be lazy
Yeah... that's some real shit cuz one day we both gon' be real rich
(real rich)
All this stressin you had to deal with its gon' pay off
But for now no days off
My lil homie's girl told him she a mother
A lil lie hoping it'll make em' love her
But if she do that then how the heck he's possed to trust her
Funny how you couldn't separate em' now they hate each other
Uh Damn..
See my uncle got a drinking problem
I really worry bout em' every time I think about em'
Know he gon' get through it I would never doubt em'
(never doubt em')
I just can't imagine the kids without em' (kids without em')

[Chorus]
Roses in the sky angels flying high I just wanna go to a place that I've never been and take me far away let me clear my mind I just wanna got to a place that I've never been

[Verse 2]
Mom's outta work hate it when she's stressed
Wish I was filthy rich so i could pay off all the debt (all the debt)
But it be moving kinda slow so I give her a lil paper every time I do a show Oh
I'm just stayin humble and patient (patient) trynna send her on a vacation (cation)
And imma let em' keep hatin' I'm just trynna feed my fam and let the inspiration grow (grow)
They say I should of been signed and that Grammy that they gave out shoulda been mine
Call it grutsism cuz I grind in my sleep all these bars that I got man I could of did time (did time)
But I never let it get the best of me
Close friends cold drinks that's the recipe
And sometimes you gotta let it be say goodbye to the old me may he rest in peace (2x rest in peace)
[Chorus]
Roses in the sky angels flying high I just wanna go to a place that I've never been and take me far away let me clear my mind I just wanna got to a place that I've never been

[Verse 3]
Ladies wanna have me' I just wanna vann em'
The world inside my brain is to much to fathom (fathom)
They used to wanna push me away (push me away) now they reach out to grab em' (2x grab em')
Praise to the most high ( 2x the most high)
We went form slaves to the most fly
Bet it'll stay the same if we don't try one thing about time things change as it goes by (goes by) I just wanna get away
Take me somewhere foreign take me to a different day
(different day)
Man I just wanna be free you just wanna be them but I just wanna be ME Uhh ( Me uhh)
Gotta few angels watching over me i talk to em' every night fo' I go to sleep (go to sleep)
So I pray that I never change cuz the devil he be trynna take control of me (2x control of me)

[Chorus]
Roses in the sky angels flying high I just wanna go to a place that I've never been and take me far away let me clear my mind I just wanna got to a place that I've never been

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
