Roses

When I'm down I just draw some roses
On a pretty piece of paper with my recipe alone
So halfway through I feel so much better
I imagine happiness and it runs right to me, such amazing beautyYou don't have to cut up no roses
Please just leave them living
Got my pencil, got pretty paper
Please don't worry, we're forgivenI have found, just the perfect feelin'
Finally 'cause I'm grateful, I can feel your spirit comin' closer on me
It is grand just to be reminded, reminded of the good things
And living in a new day that no one can tear downYou don't have to cut up no roses
Please just leave them living
Got my pencil, got pretty paper
Please don't worry, we're forgivenPower 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 mindI said a little prayer then I cleared my eyes
[Incomprehensible]
Started off with a oget, natural poget
I ain't Picasso but that ain't importantFaith, smart dude never graduated high school
Stay tuned, I'm a show you how my art move
Shape and dimension flow and extension
Symmetry shade, blowin' out the frameSign 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 kineticGot my pencil, got pretty paper
Please don't worry, we're forgiven
You don't have to cut up no roses
Please just leave them livingWhen I'm down I just draw some roses
On a pretty piece of paper with my recipe alone
So almost through I feel so much better
I imagine happiness and it ran right to me, such amazing beautyGot my pencil, got pretty paper
Please don't worry, we're forgiven
You don't have to cut up no roses
Please just leave them living
