Roses

[Hook: Georgia Anne Muldrow & Yasiin Bey] When I'm down, I just draw some roses On a pretty piece of paper With my red Stabilo Pencil So halfway through, I feel so much better (Fresh!) I imagine happiness, and it runs right to me, such amazing beauty (Why!) You don't have to (No necessary), cut up no roses (Be easy, chopper) Please just leave them living (just cool, let creation grow) Got my pencil (Check one), got pretty paper (Check two, check it out) Please don't worry we're forgiven [Verse 1: Georgia Anne Muldrow & Yasiin Bey] (Power and grace, let's move!) I have found, just the perfect feelin (And it starts the true sensation) Finally cause I'm grateful (Gratitude and my attitude, this morning) I can feel your spirit (Feel it), coming closer on me (Ev-ery-way!) It is grand (Yes), just to be reminded (Good God, money reminisce over you, for real!)) Reminded of the good things (Good things, good things, good things) Living in a new day (New day, bright star), that no one can tear down (Undeniable!) You don't have to (No necessary), cut up no roses (Be easy on the cut!) Please just leave them living(just ease, let creation grow) Got my pencil (Check one), got pretty paper (Check two, check it out!) Please don't worry we're forgiven [Verse 2: Mos Def] Power and grace Yellow for friendship, red for love Black for the universal stars above Pink buds that I bought her on Valentine She said it was forever then she changed her mind I said a little prayer then I cleared my eyes Cause I feel the draw on my heartstrings, drawing the line Started off with a orchid, natural portrait I ain't Picasso but that ain't important Faith, smart dude never graduated at art school Stay tuned I'm a show you how my art move Shape and dimension flow and extension Symmetry shade, blowin' out the frame Sign off my name Dante when I'm finished Put it to your memory for permanent exhibit Love, hard work and it's worth every minute Abstract is still life real life kinetic [Georgia Anne Muldrow & Yasiin Bey] Got my pencil (Check one), got pretty paper (Check two, check it out) Please don't worry we're forgiven (Power and grace to creation) You don't have to (No necessary), cut up no roses (Be easy, chopper!)
