Roses Lyrics - The Long Way Home - Krept & Konan

This one's for you Kev, you probably won't hear it 

They said you got two weeks left, the doctor couldn't clear it 

The leukemia's weakened you, you feel like it's defeated you 

You can't even speak now, you know how that chemo do 

Is it the end for you, Kevin? No 

It's got your body but it ain't got your soul 

God's got better plans for you, he's the man for you 

Gave me a wake-up call, so I'm thanking you 

You said you need awareness, well I'mma get it for you 

Spread a message for you, send a blessing for you 

Just stay positive before it takes you 

I'm just sorry I couldn't save you 

Life's so short, ain't you forgetting 

You think life's all good? Well it can change in a second 

Whenever it's my time, whenever it arrives 

I just hope I'm remembered when I die (man, I swear) 

High up from a bird's eye view 

It's been cold but they still came through 

Look how strong that the roses 

Roses grew 

High up from a bird's eye view 

How the stars working out for you 

Look how strong that the roses 

Roses grew, yeah 

Mum planted three roses 

In front of the garden 

Each summer 

They bloom for you, yeah 

We pray that you'll see them 

From wherever God's keeping 

God's keeping 

God's keeping you, yeah 

Family over everything 

What am I talking 'bout? Family is everything 

And we don't speak every day 

But you know you can phone me for anything 

And I know I can't change the fact 

They're sending you to war, I pray you make it back 

Don't worry, you'll be home in a sec 

Got me staring at this picture we took before you left 

One thing to another 

You're my cousin but I love you like my brother 

Looking out for me when nobody else did 

Need to stop worrying, but I can't help it 

Didn't wanna go but you didn't have a choice 

And every time you speak, I hear the stress in your voice 

But don't stress too much, you'll be back soon 

Think about that pretty girl you're coming back to 

High up from a bird's eye view 

It's been cold but they still came through 

Look how strong that the roses 

Roses grew 

High up from a bird's eye view 

How the stars working out for you 

Look how strong that the roses 

Roses grew, yeah 

Mum planted three roses 

In front of the garden 

Each summer 

They bloom for you, yeah 

We pray that you'll see them 

From wherever God's keeping 

God's keeping 

God's keeping you, yeah 

Mum planted three roses 

In front of the garden 

Each summer 

They bloom for you 

Please pray that you see them 

Wherever God's keeping 

God's keeping 

God's keeping you
